First anniversary: lots to celebrate!

  • 4 min read
It’s hard to believe a year has passed since we’ve started consulting for the beverage industry. The team at Market Your Craft has learned a ton from brands in the craft beer, wine and spirits industries, and for our first anniversary we’d like to offer you a free download of one of our market studies.Market Your Craft would love your feedback on the marketing challenges you and your team are facing in 2019. We want to make sure that the information and resources we make available have maximum benefit to your business. Your input helps shape our approach to providing content like email newsletters, social posts and downloadable tools that can be put to use immediately by your team to drive traffic, increase engagement and capture new sales.  What better time than our first anniversary to check in to see how we’re doing?!

Opportunities to advise brands like yours is exactly why we got into this business. And a year into our journey, we couldn’t be more confident that a strategic marketing plan will help craft brands stand out versus blend in. A passion for craft has resulted in three distinct business pursuits:

SCOTT KOLBE LLC

Formed in 2018 to help brands establish a high-performance marketing discipline internally, Scott Kolbe LLC connects brands and customers at a deeper, more profitable level. Client engagements include workshops and planning sessions to establish the building blocks of a competitive marketing strategy.

MARKET YOUR CRAFT

Market Your Craft is a nationwide network of experts in every field of beverage marketing. Collectively, we believe innovations in non/alcoholic brands will continue to shape the beverage landscape in-step with growing preference for craft experiences and artisan products.

FULL FLEDGED BREWING CO.

Soon to open in Council Bluffs, Iowa, Full Fledged Brewing is the passionate pursuit of Marshall and Dessie Redmond. The first brewery in the area will feature a unique line of handcrafted beers, rotating seasonals and both sour- and barrel-aging programs. I have made a non-managing investment in the brewery.

The idea of organizing a network of beverage marketers nationwide under the name Market Your Craft took hold late last year, and since then the team has been able to service a diverse group of customer needs ranging from branding and strategic planning to tactical execution of digital, social and other efforts. We have also been invited to speak to industry groups around the theme of differentiating your craft beverage brand in a crowded market. And we’re just getting started!

We’re moving!
While Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. helped shape craft nearly 40 years ago from their longtime home in Northern California, in March we will be relocating our office from Chico to Denver, Colorado. Colorado is not only a booming market for craft, but an easy flight for client meetings (and an easy drive to some incredible ski destinations). Our new office will be located at the following address for your records:

Market Your Craft
35 Van Gordon Street #525
Lakewood, CO 80228
(224) 999-0547
