The Lifespan of a Brand

From category valuation and brand positioning to formalizing your outlet strategy and sales plan, finding the experienced advice, templates and tools for your launch can mean the difference between success and struggle.

Once on the shelf, it is all about establishing early success stories! How do you know if your plan is working?

As you manage your brand, so many challenges lay in front of you. If your brand has plateaued, should you re-stage? Are you getting the most out of your promotional spending? How do you structure for growth? Where can you find a better broker?

More About Us

  • 20+ years in the Natural CPG industry
  • 144 brands worked with
  • 59 lessons documented (and counting!)

It’s no secret to anyone who’s gone through it, but building a brand in the food & beverage business is hard! It requires a lot of work, and most likely, a few failures along the way. Luckily, the community in this industry is much like the products we advocate – nourishing, fulfilling, and supportive. In fact, it’s the community we’ve built from 20 years in the better-for-you space, working with 144 brands, that shaped the idea for this venture.

Helping brands face & overcome their day-to-day challenges, we thought: How can we use what we’ve learned from our experience to benefit another brand going through the same issues? And so, Lessons from 100 Brands was born. Check out a few of our lessons up top . That’s just a taste of the expertise we bring to the table. We look forward to sharing more with you!
