Ever feel like you’re running in circles? I'm sharing a funny but true story that reminded me how a simple shift in perspective can lead to surprising relief—especially if you feel stuck in your food business.
info_outlineHave you ever felt stuck in reaction mode, pivoting too often when things don’t go as planned? Today, we’re diving into 3 ways pivoting too soon might be hurting your food brand more than helping it.
We’ll explore why consistency is key to building a memorable brand and how constant changes can drain your budget and energy. Of course, pivoting has its place, but the trick is knowing when to hold steady and when to adjust.
Planning does not have to come at the expense of action. Without any sort of strategy or plan, how will you know what actions to prioritize, and how to optimize if things don't turn out as planned?
I encourage you to create a plan to Define, Align & Activate your brand strategy, and then LEAN IN with confidence for your own piece of mind, to manage your team better, and manage your expenses.
If you could use guidance in the process, I am happy to support you!
