The break the normal and defy conventional wisdom you have to first identify the notable leaders in on the field.

We started Anteel Tequila with just $55,000. In the liquor industry, that is completely unheard of. In under 6 years, we grew the company substantially and increased the valuation to over $3 Million. This valuation came from a third-party accounting company that provided an independent review of the company. $55,000 to over $3 Million is a 5,354 percent increase! That's roughly 892% per year, which is incredible! Imagine where the company and valuation will be in 3 years. People constantly ask if they can invest in the company at a small level and we finally launched a crowdfund campaign where the public can do so. Our friends & family campaign, in just 5 days, is now over 55% to goal ($50,000). This was a soft launch for friends & family to test the waters. If you would like to be part of the Anteel Tequila family, now is the time to invest! It only takes $250 to reserve your spot. Thank you for all the support for us, the brand and to those that have already invested. We greatly appreciate it! https://lnkd.in/eYxyTHQM #tequila #liquor #liquorbrand #investmentopportunity #tequilaqueen #anteeltequila

Nightcap explores deal for Revolution Bars Group but hasn’t yet made an offer: Revolution Bars Group – the operator of the Revolution, Revolución de Cuba and Peach Pubs brands – has revealed that Nightcap ­– owner of the Cocktail Club, the Adventure Bar Group, Dirty Martini and the Barrio Familia group of 46 bars – has explored a deal for the business but hasn’t yet made an offer. Revolution Bars Group was responding to a Sky News report that Nightcap and Rekom UK, the nightclub and bar operator, have expressed an interest in buying part or all of Revolution Bars Group. A number of private equity firms are also said to have been planning to submit offers. Revolution Bars Group stated: “The board of Revolution Bars Group notes the recent press speculation and confirms that it has held an exploratory meeting with Nightcap regarding a range of possible transactions including a possible offer for the entire issued and to be issued ordinary share capital of Revolution Bars Group. Nightcap is not participating in the formal sales process, as announced on 10 April 2024. There can be no certainty that any firm offer will be made for Revolution Bars Group, nor as to the terms on which any firm offer might be made. In accordance with rule 2.6(a) of the code, Nightcap is required, by no later than 5pm (London time) on 30 May 2024, being 28 days after today’s date, to either announce a firm intention to make an offer for Revolution Bars Group in accordance with rule 2.7 of the code or announce that it does not intend to make an offer, in which case the announcement will be treated as a statement to which rule 2.8 of the code applies. This deadline can be extended with the consent of the Takeover Panel in accordance with rule 2.6(c) of the code. A further announcement will be made as and when appropriate.” Revolution Bars Group announced this week that it was postponing its general meeting, which had been scheduled to take place today (Thursday, 2 May) to “provide additional time to fully explore its strategic options”. The company has received commitments from investors to raise a £12.5m lifeline as it prepares to launch a restructuring plan. Under this process, it plans to close 18 of its circa 80 sites, of which six are already currently shut, and impose a rent reduction at 14 sites to enable the group to return to profitability at a sustainable level. The company is grappling with rising costs and a downturn in trading. Its stock market value has slumped by nearly 75% over the last 12 months, and it now has a market valuation of little more than £6m. If the restructuring plan fails to gain sufficient approval from creditors, the only viable alternative for the company would be a sale. About 2,500 people work for the group, which floated in London for the second time in 2015.

Independent Spirits Soar: Why Small Brands are the Life of the Party Hey there, fellow spirits enthusiasts! I just read how a certain indie spirits company is shaking things up at a big event with their partner. It got me thinking – sometimes the little guys really bring that special something to the industry. It's like when you discover a secret menu at your favorite diner, and it's got the best milkshake you've never heard of. Big brands might have the loudspeakers, but the indies? They've got heart and soul, and often a twist in flavor that has me ditching the usual for something bolder. "The independently owned spirits company is exhibiting at the event..." caught my eye. They're not just showing up—they're standing out. That's kind of how we do things at Supergay Spirits. We’re proud of our unique blends and even prouder to wear our hearts on our label. Believing in a spirit that's about more than just taste, it's about community and authenticity, now that's worth toasting to. Check out the full scoop on this spirited affair: [Article Link]https://buff.ly/3TYrtmI Macleod Distillers debuts at Summit of the Americas with premium spirits portfolio

I'm not a fan of these drinks, but this is great from a marketing and business strategy perspective. Here's why: 1. They've completely separated themselves from their competition, with a new take on an old product (wine, very clever). 2. Very targeted (done their homework), they just need to watch their young drinkers' hustle. 3. Attractive packaging with on-point flavours. 4. The drinks are lower in alcohol (4% alc. by vol.) and lower in calories (38 per 100mls). Diversifying may not be what you're looking for, but if you are, here's a great case study. #marketing #positioning #targetmarket #itservices #startups #dental
