I also would be negligent not to mention many others who have gone above and beyond to support my industry education and guidance in creating Beyond Broth including Eric Schnell, The Naturally Boulder Community, Steve Wangler of Good Crisp, Elliot Begoun of TIG, Paul McClean from Alfalfas and Jeff Schmidgall of Bubbas Foods…and so many more. In my experience, the Natural Products Industry is one of the most all-inclusive industry’s I have come across. I am grateful and feel so blessed everyday.

Business 2 Community shared Elliot's article: I make a living of not knowing. That sounds like an odd statement, but it is true. I embrace not knowing and see it as a powerful tool. It took me years to understand this benefit. Our world is filled with purported experts; people who claim to know all.

Tardigrade Circle Theory I had a recent conversation with the co-founders of a brand. They were struggling with a tricky question. They were getting some product feedback from investors, industry insiders, and consumers. It caused them to pause and ask if they should change the taste profile by adding some ingredients, even if it pulled them away from their core consumer. It’s a great question to ask and a hard one to answer. It allowed me to walk them through the Tardigrade Circle Theory, which I believe, for an emerging brand, is at the heart of a capital-efficient go-to-market strategy. I will use the above conversation to illustrate this theory walking you through an exercise that I hope proves helpful. I will anonymize it a bit to protect the innocent. If you want to play along at home, grab a blank piece of paper. The above brand’s core consumers are whole food plant-exclusive eaters. In other words, people eating a healthy vegan diet. Those playing along at home, draw a small ci...
