So the past week has been a nice break from the Northern California World Tour of a couple a weeks ago. I was busy personally doing demos for all our new retailers that have come on in the last 3 months or so. A lot of retailers in Marin and Sonoma counties and also Santa Cruz counties. It's really great to do show and tell with everyone and really talk about my sauces and seasonings.
I also managed to participate in a great new event (at least for Sauce Goddess)- that was the Autumn Food and Wine Festival. For those of you who really enjoy it when restaurant chef pairs food and wine, this event is for you. Saturday was the general tasting and cooking classes and so on. Sunday the event was a competition between restaurant chefs and their partner winery to see who would win top honors and pair a food and wine so perfectly that everyone loved it. I have to say for my taste buds there could have been 4 or 5 winners.
This break gives me time to finally write a blog for the first time in oh over a year.... bad blogging goddess. I am also looking for an intern to help with my social networking and help come up with a marketing plan. Who knows maybe he or she will write the next blog and share their experiences so far.
The big project I see that I have to address is branding my company products. I need to know that folks like you reading this blog will recognize the product and recommend it to others. I need the retailers to have heard of the company before my sales resp approach them. The best of all worlds would be a store calling and asking for it... but that may be asking for too much.
Well I'm going to go cook a Big Tangy Portobello with caramelized peppers and onions over couscous... yummy. I think I'll add some serranos to make it fun. Tata for now.
