In this conversation, Michael Fisher, founder and CEO of Rotten, shares his journey of building a candy brand from scratch with zero experience in the industry. He talks about the initial trap that many startup CEOs fall into, himself included, of chasing the symbols of success instead of focusing on the business fundamentals. Michael then shares his personal connection to candy and the creative process behind building a brand narrative that emotionally resonates with consumers. During the conversation, we touch on the power of learning from advisors, the role of Kickstarter in validating his product concept, and his focus on healthier ingredients while maintaining great taste. Michael also shares insights on creative collaboration, the challenges of competing in the candy industry, including navigating legal issues with larger brands, and his vision for a better world through diverse product options.Key points from this episode:Transitioning from a startup CEO mindset to a real business is crucial.Learning from advisors and networking is key to success.Kickstarter served as a validation tool for Rotten's concept.A personal connection to candy inspired the brand's focus.Building a brand narrative is essential in a competitive market.World-building with engaging characters enhances brand identity through rich and engaging storytelling.The candy industry is brand-dominated, requiring strong branding to compete for loyalty.A significant portion of consumers are purchasing less candy due to health concerns.The brand aims to attract consumers who have never purchased better-for-you candy before.Formulation challenges are common when creating healthier candy options.The brand has undergone multiple reformulations to improve product quality.Legal challenges from larger brands can be daunting, but also indicate market presence.The goal is to provide consumers with better options that taste great.A better world means offering diverse food options, including healthier choices. Sound Bites:"It's really hard to remember that there isn't a playbook. What's going to work for your brand is going to be a unique path.""I stopped buying a lot of candy, actually, and I missed it. I missed the experience of eating candy.”"I really wanted to have a focus on building a strong brand that people could love.""We have worlds that haven't been explored, you know, Freektopia and all these fun places.”“More than a third of consumers in our category, non-chocolate candy, reported purchasing less candy over the last year. And the number one reason they report that is health and diet concerns."“We are showing that there is demand from people and people are willing to pay a premium for candy that still tastes incredible and gives them some of these health benefits.”“We're gonna win here is if someone eats our candy and it's their favorite candy, regardless of the health benefits.""So that was a fun time for me to play around in my kitchen, but I quickly learned that it's a very technical product to make." Links:Michael Fisher on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-fisher1/Rotten - https://eatrotten.com/Rotten on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/eatrotten/Rotten on Tiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@eatrottenRotten on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@eatrottenRotten on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/eatrotten/posts/…Dr James Richardson - Evolve CPG episode 74 - https://modernspecies.com/brands-for-a-better-world-podcast/focus-on-your-fans-dr-james-richardson-premium-growth-solutions?rq=rampingRamping Your Brand Book - https://www.rampingyourbrand.com/…Brands for a Better World Episode Archive - http://brandsforabetterworld.com/Brands for a Better World on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-for-a-better-world/Modern Species - https://modernspecies.com/Modern Species on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/modern-species/Gage Mitchell on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gagemitchell/…Print Magazine Design Podcasts - https://www.printmag.com/categories/printcast/…Heritage Radio Network - https://heritageradionetwork.org/Heritage Radio Network on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/heritage-radio-network/posts/Heritage Radio Network on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/HeritageRadioNetworkHeritage Radio Network on X - https://x.com/Heritage_RadioHeritage Radio Network on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/heritage_radio/Heritage Radio Network on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@heritage_radio Chapters: 03:00 Introduction to Michael Fisher and Rotten06:09 The Transition from Startup CEO to Real Business08:49 Learning the CPG Landscape12:00 The Role of Advisors and Networking14:59 Kickstarter: A Launchpad for Validation18:11 Personal Connection to Non-Chocolate Candy21:05 Building a Brand with a Narrative23:55 World Building in Brand Development28:31 Creative Collaboration in Candy Design31:49 Building Emotional Connections with Consumers33:01 Competing in the Candy Industry39:05 Formulation Challenges and Product Development47:42 Navigating Legal Challenges with Big Candy53:39 A Vision for a Better World through Options

Egy bloghoz írok, és úgy érzem, hiányzik valami különleges."En: "Exactly. I'm writing for a blog, and I feel like something special is missing."Hu: Együtt összeütötték a fejükben szunnyadó ötleteket.En: Together, they collided their dormant ideas.Hu: "Próbáljuk meg együtt! Te fotózol, én írok. Nézzük meg, mit hozunk ki ebből a helyből!" - javasolta Anikó.En: "Let's try it together! You photograph, I'll write. Let's see what we can bring out from this place!" suggested Anikó.Hu: Kezdetét vette egy spontán fotózás és történetmesélés.En: A spontaneous photo shoot and storytelling commenced.Hu: A vendégek hozzájárulását kérték néhány vidám pillanathoz; nevető csoportképek, vidám kiskávé-rítusok, mind előkerültek.En: They asked the consent of the guests for a few joyful moments; laughing group pictures, joyful little coffee rituals, all made an appearance.Hu: László megörökítette a kávézó lüktető életét, míg Anikó szavakba öntötte a pillanatok varázsát.En: László captured the pulsating life of the café, while Anikó put the magic of the moments into words.Hu: Ahogy közeledett a farsangi időszak, a kávézó egyedi hangulata megelevenedett a képek és a szöveg párosításában.En: As the carnival season approached, the unique atmosphere of the café came to life through the combination of images and text.Hu: Az egészet körbefonta a közös élmény varázsa.En: The whole was enveloped by the magic of shared experience.Hu: Végül László elkattintotta az utolsó képet, és megállapította, hogy ez az a pillanat, amit keresett.En: Finally, László clicked the last picture and realized that this was the moment he had been looking for.Hu: "Ez az!" - kiáltott fel örömében.En: "This is it!" he exclaimed in delight.Hu: Anikó elégedetten olvasta fel a szövegét, amely remekül illett a képekhez.En: Anikó contentedly read her text aloud, which perfectly matched the images.Hu: Megállapodtak, hogy a közös alkotást megosztják majd követőikkel.En: They agreed to share their joint creation with their followers.Hu: László és Anikó rádöbbentek, hogy az inspiráció néha közös munka eredménye, és hogy az egyszerű dolgok más szemszögből nézve igazán különlegesek lehetnek.En: László and Anikó realized that inspiration is sometimes the result of collaboration, and that simple things can be truly special when viewed from a different perspective.Hu: A tél hidege már nem is tűnt olyan dermesztőnek, mialatt László és Anikó a pályaudvar felé sétáltak, a szívükben melegség és az alkotás öröme.En: The cold of winter didn't seem so biting as László and Anikó walked towards the train station, warmth and the joy of creation in their hearts.

Carissa Carter and Scott Doorley both teach at Stanford's interdisciplinary d.school. They are also the joint authors of Assembling Tomorrow, an intriguing new book in which, using their D School experience, Carter and Doorley provide a guide to designing a thriving future. They argue that the future, in all its socioeconomic complexity, can de designed so that we can mend the mistakes of our past and shape that future for the better. For some viewers this might be a bit annoyingly Stanford in its can-do positivity and virtue signaling. But if Carter and Doorley can indeed successfully instill in their d.school students a degree of moral responsibility about designing the technological and economic future, then they will have done the rest of us a great service. Carissa Carter is a designer, a geoscientist, and the academic director at the Stanford d.school. She's the author of The Secret Language of Maps: How to Tell Visual Stories with Data (2022) and Assembling Tomorrow: A Guide to Designing a Thriving Future from the Stanford d.school (2024). Carissa teaches design courses on emerging technologies, climate change, and data visualization. Her work on designing with machine learning and blockchain has earned multiple design awards, including Fast Company Innovation and Core 77 awards.Scott Doorley is a writer, designer, and the creative director at the Stanford d.school.

Ceri is joined in conversation with Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard, artists and BAFTA-nominated directors who've collaborated for over 30 years. From their early days at Goldsmiths to working with music icons like Nick Cave, this episode reveals their unique approach to art, film, TV and performance.

Their candid insights and inspiring advice make this a must-listen for creatives seeking to carve their own path! KEY TAKEAWAYS Embrace collaboration and find partners who complement your strengths, as Iain and Jane have done for over three decades. Don't be afraid to ask questions and be the beginner in the room – it can lead to innovative approaches and unexpected opportunities. Aim high in your creative ambitions, even if you fall short, you'll still achieve more than if you hadn't set big goals. Cultivate relationships with mentors and champions who believe in your work and can support you during challenging times. Be willing to let go of ideas that aren't working and adapt quickly, especially when working on time-sensitive projects. Focus on the day-to-day aspects of your creative life, as they form 99% of your experience, rather than fixating on big moments. Look for the "magic" that happens in the space between authenticity and performance, truth and fiction. Enjoy the journey and successes while they're happening, rather than only appreciating them in retrospect. BEST MOMENTS  "We very rarely back down. So ideas are often pushed somewhere pretty extreme, pretty quickly." "The best moments in 20,000 Days for us, artistically, are these tiny bits of archive footage of Nick performing from over the 30 odd years he's been performing that are cut into a performance of him performing at Sydney Opera House." "We often give our crews kind of pep talks about, you know, don't fear the speed, ride it, like let's pretend we're on a roller coaster, go with it." "Stop thinking about  the bigger picture and work on project by project. Always challenge yourself, always make it new and fresh." "Be so aware that the day to day, the way in which you spend your time, and the people with which you spend it with, is ultimately 99 percent of your creative life." "I wish I'd enjoyed it whilst I was there, and I think that's a really powerful piece of advice to actually enjoy it whilst you're there."
