Most founders dive straight into building — features, user flows, no-code tools — before they've nailed the strategy that actually drives traction: brand. In this episode, Sophia Matveeva shares why brand must come before product, especially for non-technical founders building tech-enabled businesses. You'll learn the four brand foundations every founder needs — whether you're launching a new venture or scaling an existing one: Clarity — Who you serve and why you exist Story — What problem you solve and what's at stake Trust Signals — How to build credibility before or beyond your user base Voice — How to speak to your market without jargon Sophia also shares examples from Uber, Goldman Sachs, and her own company, Tech for Non-Techies, which is trusted by governments and Fortune 500s to teach non-technical leaders how to succeed in the digital economy. If you want customers, talent, and investors to take your venture seriously — and you're not building brand strategically — this episode is for you.

Analysis paralysis is BORING. And it doesn't get you results. Most founders think they fail because of the market, the product, or the pitch. But the real killer is a slow mindset. In this episode, Sophia Matveeva shows you why bad work beats perfect ideas — and how shifting your mindset can be the difference between building real momentum and watching your venture die. You will learn:  Why perfectionism feels smart but keeps you stuck How no-code tools tempt you to tinker instead of launch Why top founders move fast and embrace imperfection How to build momentum before you're ready — with real-world examples and a challenge for you to do today   Chapters 00:00 The Mindset Shift for Non-Technical Founders 03:07 The Importance of Speed Over Perfection 05:53 Accepting Imperfection in Innovation 09:02 Consequences of a Slow Mindset 11:47 Taking Action Before You're Ready FREE COURSE: 5 Tech Concepts Every Business Leader Needs To Know   Growth Through Innovation If your organisation wants to drive revenue through innovation, book a call with us here.

On this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan and Corey welcome Mike Barrett back to the show. Mike is the editor of Select Value Opportunities and senior analyst for Extreme Value. He has decades of cash-flow modeling and valuation expertise that he uses to find underappreciated, high-quality growth stocks. Mike kicks things off by discussing President Donald Trump's tariffs, their implication in the context of broad market cycles, and a potential 2026 low. He explains that he believes stocks have limited upside from here because of extreme positive sentiment and rampant overvaluation. And because there's so much uncertainty, Mike advises investors to make sure they have high-quality businesses in their portfolios. He also points out that the most overvalued stocks today are the defensive ones, but that could change once the tariff situation eases. (1:47) Next, Mike breaks down his personal investing philosophy and why he uses macroeconomic factors to look ahead only a few weeks rather than longer term. He also talks about the importance of momentum, taking risks to find out what works best for you as an investor, Nvidia being undervalued today, one company he likes that offers a good way to compound your wealth, and the optionality baked into Sprouts Farmers Market thanks to the rising popularity of weight-loss drugs. (18:42) Finally, Mike discusses Costco Wholesale's fantastic business growth, the importance of finding companies that perform consistently well, his recommendation of Constellation Brands that earned a triple-digit return for subscribers, crypto, and generative AI. (43:03)

What does it take to build a breakout non-alcoholic beverage brand in today's ultra-competitive drinks market? For George Youmans, co-founder and Chief Revenue Officer of Hiyo, it starts with a crystal-clear brand promise: a stress-relieving, mood-boosting sensation they call “the float.”In just three years, Hiyo has grown into a category leader, selling over 500,000 cases annually, with +212% year-over-year retail sales growth — making it the #1 contributor to growth in the functional-other beverage category, according to SPINS. With its USDA Organic formulation, a national rollout in 946 Target stores, and a recent minority investment from Constellation Brands, Hiyo is cementing its place as a top player in the fast-rising functional non-alc space.In this episode, George shares:How Hiyo went from a bootstrapped pandemic idea to tripling retail revenue last yearThe role of e-commerce in Hiyo's early success, including a 10X sales leap in year two and 3X in year threeWhy the “floaty feeling” — not just functional ingredients — became the emotional core of the brandHow the team leverages its 500K+ DTC customer base to drive velocity at retail with targeted geo campaignsWhy Hiyo prioritizes rate of sale over door count, aiming for sustainable growth over splashy expansionHow packaging design — based on Californian sunset palettes — became a brand differentiatorThe importance of staying operationally lean while growing fast — and what George learned from early forecasting mistakesHow event partnerships with EDC, HARD Summer, and Breakaway Music Festival support liquid-to-lips trial with over 300,000 festivalgoersWhy George believes Hiyo can be for hard seltzers and RTDs what Athletic Brewing is for beerLast Call: On Last Call, we dive into a new per-capita wine consumption map from Visual Capitalist and the NIAAA — and what it reveals about:Why wine consumption is lowest in the Midwest and SouthHow D.C. became the nation's most wine-loving "state"The surprising disconnect between income, control states, and wine salesWhy tasting room visitation may be dropping in California — but rising in states like Michigan and VirginiaDon't miss our next episode, dropping on June 4.For the latest updates, follow us:Business of Drinks:YouTubeLinkedInInstagram @bizofdrinksErica Duecy, co-host: Erica Duecy is founder and co-host of Business of Drinks and one of the drinks industry's most accomplished digital and content strategists.

Send us a textThe unexpected bargains of wine industry disruption take center stage as Domain Dave explores Trader Joe's Diamond Reserve Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2023. At $19.99, this single-vineyard wine represents the upper tier of Trader Joe's offerings, yet delivers value far beyond its price point.What makes this bottle particularly intriguing is the mystery behind its origins. While Trader Joe's typically provides subtle hints about their premium wines' sources, this label remains conspicuously silent—suggesting a particularly prestigious pedigree. The clues are tantalizing: it's a single-vineyard Napa Cabernet from a specific sub-appellation, aged 14 months in French and American oak, with classic Bordeaux-style blending (touches of Petit Verdot and Merlot). All signs point to a wine that would typically command $50+ at retail.The current wine market echoes conditions last seen during the 2008 recession, with major players like Duckhorn, parts of Coppola's Del Cato, and Constellation Brands shedding assets and canceling contracts. These disruptions create opportunities for value-minded wine enthusiasts willing to explore. As Dave explains, wines never intended for value channels suddenly appear at bargain prices when producers face financial pressure. This Diamond Reserve Napa Cab drinks well immediately but shows potential for further improvement with six months of additional aging. The challenge? As a limited-edition release, it won't be available for long.Have you noticed other unexpected premium wines appearing at value prices recently? The current market conditions suggest we might see more such opportunities. While you contemplate this Napa Cabernet, stay tuned for Dave's upcoming review of a $6 New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Remember to keep your wine adventures affordable without sacrificing quality. These distress sales from premium producers represent perfectly timed opportunities for savvy wine lovers.Check us out at www.cheapwinefinder.comor email us at podcast@cheapwinefinder.com

From accelerators to corporate venture capital, most startup support structures fail to deliver. Investor and entrepreneur Andrew Ackerman explains why — and what founders and corporates should do instead. With over 70 investments and hundreds of founders mentored, Andrew brings rare perspective from both sides of the table. Andrew is a serial entrepreneur who has founded two companies, led an accelerator, and now advises startups, VCs and corporates. He's also the author of The Entrepreneur's Odyssey — a novel-style guide to what startup life really feels like. You will learn: Why most accelerators fail: Discover how many support programs offer flashy promises without delivering tangible outcomes like revenue or pilot deals. Rethinking venture capital: Understand why fundraising is often pursued for validation rather than strategic fit — and why most startups don't necessarily need VC money. Corporate innovation pitfalls: Learn how misaligned incentives and internal politics transform innovation programs into mere theatre rather than engines of growth. The value of tailored support: Find out how startups can benefit from support structures designed as platforms that evolve with their specific stage and needs. What to do instead: Get practical insights on structuring your support programs, whether you're a founder, a corporate team, or an investor.   Chapters 00:00 The Illusion of Tech Startups 02:43 Understanding Startup Support Systems 06:48 Challenges in Corporate Innovation 10:05 The Value of Accelerators 16:58 The Glamour of Fundraising 22:12 The Reality of Startup Life   FREE COURSE: 5 Tech Concepts Every Business Leader Needs To Know   Growth Through Innovation If your organisation wants to drive revenue through innovation, book a call with us here.

Everything sucks, but at least we still have beerThe Brewers Association released their 2024 brewing industry stats recently. As expected, it wasn't great, but it could be worse. There are still passionate people opening breweries and us consumers still have more options for great beer than we ever have before. Praise be.ChatGPT and Beer (and other things)Do you use AI in your job? For Brian and I it's become a daily tool. It's advancing amazingly fast. There are fun beery things you can do with it, too. Get beer recommendations, have it create labels and action figures from your description, or research info on beer and breweries. One caveat - it gets things wrong, a lot, and it states them rather confidently. Question everything it tells you and verify the info. If something doesn't look right then call it out and the AI will take another look to verify its info... but it may tell you something else wrong again.It's hard not to be political these daysY'all, we have been doing this show for going on 10 years and we've always avoided politics. That's becoming difficult to do but we will (in most cases) try to present things as facts and information. But, it's getting crazy out there. The tariffs are hitting the industry already with one smaller local brewery saying the tariffs have already cost them an extra $60,000. Constellation Brands reports that the immigration policies are impacting their sales. I hope our countries can get their acts together, cause it's not looking good.In other news...More brewery closures announced of brands owned my Tilray and Monster, and Miller releases a beer-infused record of dive bar sounds.

Constellation Brands (STZ) reports earnings after the bell in a now-optimistic market after President Trump announced a near-universal 90-day tariff pause. Investopedia's Caleb Silver believes the company's heavy ties to consumers still puts its growth at risk. Caleb expects this quarter's earnings season for companies tied to the consumer discretionary space will generate headwinds for Constellation Brands' outlook.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Here's the latest CPG news happening right now on February 23rd, 2025 including Celsius Acquires Alani Nu / Hiyo Investment/Coca-Cola Takes on Olipop and PoppiCelsius Holdings said on Thursday it would buy health and wellness drinks brand Alani Nutrition in a $1.8 billion deal through a combination of cash and stock, boosting its portfolio to build on the growing demand for sports and energy beverages.Alani Nutrition, a female-focused brand that delivers functional beverages and wellness products, was founded in 2018 and will be acquired from its co-founders, Katy Schneider and Haydn Schneider, and its operator, Congo Brands, Celsius said.According to Yahoo Finance: The venture capital arm of Constellation Brands has acquired a minority stake in Hiyo, a nonalcoholic “social tonic” containing a blend of functional ingredients, including adaptogens, nootropics and botanicals.Constellation's senior vice president of new business ventures, John Utter, said in a statement the Hiyo investment aligns with the aims of beverage giant's VC group, which is to capitalize on emerging categories.The Modelo brewer's investment could help the brewer expand its presence in the growing category. Hiyo's health halo could also help it stand out in the crowded ready-to-drink category, as consumers seek out beverages that give them more of a nutritious benefit.Posted on CNBC: Starting in late February, consumers on the West Coast and in the Southeast will be able to try Coke's iteration of the trendy drink.Soda consumption has broadly fallen in the U.S. over the last two decades, hurt by health concerns and an increase in alternatives on the market, from cold brew to energy drinks to water. But in the last five years, sodas containing prebiotics have taken off, thanks to industry newcomers Olipop and Poppi.Olipop recently raised $50 million at a valuation of $1.85 billion, the company announced Wednesday. And Poppi made its second straight Super Bowl appearance in this year's game, shelling out up to $8 million to reach the game's record audience.Digestive health soft drinks have grown from a $197 million category in the U.S. in 2020 to one of roughly $440 million in 2024, according to Euromonitor International data. Still, it's a fraction of the overall soda market, which is worth billions of dollars.Simply Pop's first product lineup leans fruity, in a nod to Coke's Simply juice brand. Flavors include pineapple mango, lime, strawberry, fruit punch and citrus punch.“We went out and really listened to consumers. They love this space, they're really looking for stuff that tastes good, and that's something we know how to deliver on at Simply and at Coke,” said Becca Kerr, CEO of Coke's North American nutrition unit, which includes its Simply and Fairlife brands.Simply Pop drinks have no added sugar and contain 25% to 30% real fruit juice, the company said. They also contain vitamin C and zinc, which can boost the immune system.

Gefeliciteerd! Voor het derde kwartaal op rij zijn de beleggingen van Nederlanders méér waard geworden. En is weer een record verbroken meldt DNB. Misschien zitten jouw aandelen er ook wel tussen. Wie jou trouwens niet feliciteert, is een bejaarde man uit Amerika. Warren Buffett, misschien heb je wel eens van hem gehoord. Hij heeft dik 300 miljard dollar achter de hand en blijft maar aandelen verkopen. Hij ziet geen grote koopkansen en wacht tot het bloed door de straten loopt. Daar hebben we het deze aflevering over. Wanneer komt die crash waar Buffett zo halsrijkend naar uitkijkt? Ook hebben we het over Europese banken. Kunnen de aandelen van ABN, ING, BNP Paribas en die anderen meer waard worden nu centrale bankiers een oproep doen voor minder regels? Verder bespreken we het social media gebruik van Donald Trump. Een tiende van zijn berichten beïnvloed de beurs. Of hij daarmee een krachtpatser is, hoor je. En over een krachtmeting gesproken: Kim Kardashian komt ook voorbij. Zij gaat aan de slag voor Nike!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Onder Trump 1.0 was het 'America First'. Vanaf nu is het 'America Only'. Europa mag niet eens meer meedoen met de vredesbesprekingen over Oekraïne. En ook Oekraïne zelf mag niet aanschuiven als het aan president Donald Trump ligt. Hij wil zo snel mogelijk een deal sluiten en geeft ook geen garantie meer dat Oekraïne de ingenomen gebieden ooit terugkrijgt. Europa ziet het niet al te optimistisch in, want dat betekent dat we voortaan niet meer op Amerika's bescherming kunnen rekenen. Dus moeten er meteen miljarden op tafel gesmeten worden. Honderden miljarden. Die gaan Europa's eigen defensie weer op peil brengen. Terwijl de Europese leiders het over oorlog hebben, vieren beleggers feest. Want die zien hun defensie-aandelen de lucht in schieten. Of ze terecht enthousiast zijn, en hoe jij je wapent tegen Amerika's nieuwe motto, dat vertellen we je in deze aflevering. En dan hebben we het ook over die andere oorlog, die voor Trump juist niet lang genoeg kan duren: zijn eigen handelsoorlog. De nieuwste ontwikkeling vindt plaats in Taiwan, want hij dwingt chipmaker TSMC om de reddende engel voor Amerikaanse concurrent Intel te worden. En je hoort ook nog over China. De overheid draaide een paar jaar terug de duimschroeven aan bij de eigen techsector omdat die te machtig werd. Maar Peking maakt een ommezwaai en is nu weer de beste vriendjes met bedrijven als Alibaba en Tencent. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
