Go-To-Market Strategy in NYC Metro Confidential
Half Full and NYC - a unique partnership We feel that our brand can resonate in NYC more so than in any other market and more so than any other brand… …but how do we establish a permanent and differentiated presence for our brand in the most crowded market in the US?
Questions to get started Where do we start - the entire 5 boroughs, or 1 borough or 1 neighborhood? When do we start? What sort of PR campaign should we launch? What should our marketing budget be? What marketing collateral should we create? Which bars do we target? Where are the taste makers? Which product packaging should we open with? Do we launch with all of our brands or just one lead brand? What strategic partnerships should we go after? What third-party events should we target? Which events should we put on? What should the salesforce look like? Which distributor should we use? What should the founder’s role be in the launch?
