  1. Challenge - See yourself as a marketing organization.
  2. Your website is the hub of all marketing activity for your company in Inbound. Cheaper – I’ve heard outbound marketing referred to as “rental”…you’re paying for a spot or a piece of someone’s time. Inbound is more about “building assets”…investing in content that you own and that people seek out – indirectly, they pay you for it!In Hubspots’ 2012 State of Inbound Marketing Report, they found almost half of companies – 47% - are putting more $ in inbound – your competitors are doing it.Hubspot is a company I’ll refer to a few times here…they provide an inbound marketing system that we use and we sell – full disclosure. But even if we didn’t, I urge you to use their resources.
  3. Curation – a targeted, editorial approach. Delivers value. Authentic and human.Engagement, quality, and value matter more than numbers of likes, followers, etc.
  4. http://adage.com/article/digital/twitter-tool-greenlight-alcohol-brands/235146/Twitter has partnered with Buddy Media to create an age verification tool for Twitter as of June 2012For example, if a user leaves a comment that makes you think he’s underage or drinking and driving – what is your responsibility?Facebook settings/permissions allows setting age restrictions
  5. Beer Institute – industry lobbying group. Voluntary ad code = guidelines for good practices
  6. From a Zoomerang survey from November 2011 of over 1,000 SMB decision makers. They are TORN - 40% said NO they won’t use social, 20% said they don’t know.
  7. Age restrictions – is it different than a TV commercial?West Side Beer – our client (and Altec’s)…love their home brew contest and photos – contests, fan photos, local happeningshttp://www.fastcompany.com/3001871/your-facebook-fans-are-hiding-your-posts-alarming-rateFor far too long marketers focused on maximizing fan count instead of maximizing fan engagement, and now we’re paying the price. This has nothing to do with Facebook’s algorithms and has everything to do with content marketers put in front of their fans...in many cases content our fans don’t want to see.Rather than commenting or hiding posts, fans will just unsubscribe.Focus on quality fans, real buyers, not the body count. Watch frequency, experiment with new types of content

  14. Are they using your product everyday or just special occasions? Drinking away from home or at home? Are they younger/older, men/women? Are they food people? Health-focused.Think locally – like West Side Beer’s homebrew contest. Build loyalty with local groups.Align with sales (what do they know that you don’t?): upcoming special events, recent competitive pricing and promotional activity, retailer closings and openings, and other external conditions, even align with finance to accurately predict demand

  16. Powers was the NBWA’s 2011 Craft Beer Distributor of the Year – they do it well.
  17. Suppliers make huge investments in marketing, creating an image – take advantage of it at the distributor levelShare what they create – press releases, new commercials – it’s ready-made content to share socially, easy, cheapHelp producers understand trends so they can adapt more quickly – like smaller sizes of cans, 4-packs, cans, growlers (quality control issues – brewers don’t like them but consumers do)
  18. In some areas, convenience stores are a big outlet type. They want a different approach to a partnership than a restaurant or grocery store. The right mix of products for them will be different – customize the messaging – maybe they need more focus on budget beers in areas hit hard by unemployment. Learn who are their customers? Growing Hispanic populations, aging populations, college students – what do they want?Restaurants and bars were early adopters of social – they recognize the power of it (word of mouth, recommendations) and are often on FourSquare, doing offers (Groupon, Living Social)Brown Distributing – 2012 Craft Beer Distributor of the Year – announced last week at the Great American Beer Festival in Colorado, presented jointly by the NBWA and the Brewers Association.
  19. Also, look at marketing leaders. What can you learn from some of the best operating websites out there like Amazon.com – Zappos.com – apple.com – sephora.com – Sephora BTW has the highest ranked website for awards and customer experience. Even though these companies are in different industries from you there is something to be learned from them. Also we might want to mention that book that Gary read that he loves about web design called “Don’t make me think” – maybe we should get a copy or two to give-a-way.
