Here's What We Do Better
Our client, a gourmet cheese producer based in the countryside of Vermont, USA, is celebrated for its artisanal cheeses and traditional cheese-making methods. Despite their high-quality products and a niche market presence, they faced challenges in expanding their distribution and competing with larger dairy producers.
The cheese producer was struggling with limited exposure in national markets and fluctuating sales, primarily due to the niche nature of their products and increasing competition from mass-market dairy brands. They needed effective strategies to stabilize sales, expand their customer base, and enhance their market presence.
We introduced the Guaranteed Sales Revenue Platform, targeting a monthly sales revenue of $1.3 million. The strategy was designed to establish countertrade partnerships with gourmet food stores, upscale restaurants, and expand into e-commerce.
1. Forming Countertrade Partnerships with Gourmet Food Stores and Upscale Restaurants: We negotiated agreements to supply the producer’s artisanal cheeses, ensuring increased market reach and sales opportunities.
2. Securing a Revenue of $1.3 Million Monthly: This target was set based on the producer’s potential in the growing market for gourmet cheeses and their capacity for increased production.
3. Enhancing E-Commerce and Digital Marketing: Utilizing the platform’s reliable outcomes, we improved the producer’s online sales strategy and digital marketing initiatives to reach a broader audience.
4. Developing Exclusive Cheese Collections for Retail Partners: We assisted in creating unique cheese varieties for specific retail and restaurant partners, adding uniqueness and appeal to the offerings.
5. Ensuring Steady Revenue through Countertrade Contracts: All partnerships were backed by legally binding countertrade agreements, providing predictable and long-term revenue streams.
6. Performance-Based Compensation Structure: Our fees were directly linked to achieving the $1.3 million monthly sales goal.
Within 90 days, the gourmet cheese producer achieved:
- A steady increase in monthly revenue, reaching the $1.3 million target as per the 5-year countertrade contracts.
- Successful countertrade partnerships with gourmet retailers and upscale restaurants, enhancing the brand’s market presence and accessibility.
- Improved online sales and global brand visibility, driven by a robust e-commerce platform and targeted digital marketing strategies.
