With summer on the horizon, now is a great time for beverage brands to capitalize on the rising temperatures of the summer cocktail season to drive sales. Alcoholic and non-alcoholic brands alike can engage with customers through promotional campaigns and advertisements.

Food and beverage brands can tap into the upcoming cocktail season by focusing on refreshing, summer-y flavors. Consumers are looking for thirst-quenching seasonal drinks in the hot months, such as flavored sparkling waters, mojitos, and sangrias and alcoholic brands can introduce their twists on these classic summer cocktails. Non-alcoholic brands can offer drinks infused with fruit flavors like watermelon, mango, or citrus, or non alcoholic versions of these same fun cocktails. 

The health and wellness industries have gained attention as consumer awareness of physical and mental well-being increases. Despite seeming similar at face-value, there are distinct differences between the two. Companies should take these differences into account when marketing products and services.

The health industry strives to prevent and treat diseases and illnesses. This includes medical organizations, like hospitals, clinics and pharmacies. It also includes pharmaceutical and medical device businesses. The industry aims to offer medical assistance to patients to heal or manage their condition.

The competition in healthcare is intense, especially for small healthcare brands. These brands face a challenge competing with Amazon Pharmacy and other big companies. However, there are a few strategies companies can use to be of greater value to consumers.

Smaller brands can emphasize personalized care to show their value and stand out against larger competitors – like Amazon Pharmacy. Individual attention, trust, and loyalty all showcase a personal touch unavailable from big firms. Such companies can use this point-of-difference to create customer trust.  

Non-alcoholic beverage brands may think they face a challenge during holidays such as St. Patrick’s Day, due to associations with alcoholic drinks. However, with “sober curiosity” on the rise among many consumers, there are still methods for successful beverage marketing for these brands during this time .

One successful strategy for non-alcoholic beverage brands is to create fun, engaging content that caters to the target audience. Content can include recipes for fun and tasty mocktails, food pairings, and activities like bar games. This type of content allows non-alcoholic beverage brands to engage with their customers in a meaningful way and promote their products without a direct focus on sales.

Inclusivity is a critical aspect of the beauty industry, and it starts with having a diverse range of shades for all skin tones. Offering a diverse shade range shows that your beauty brand values inclusivity and diversity and that you want to ensure that all customers, regardless of their skin tone, can find the perfect shade match for their skin. Back in 2018, the beauty brand Beauty Blender decided to launch the first foundation line with 32 different skin tones. Even with so many shades, unfortunately , the company still offered a very limited shade range for darker skin tones, which led to backlash. Many beauty brands learned from this mistake and how to best avoid it, and some took the opportunity to launch their own lines in response. That’s how Rihanna’s brand, Fenty Beauty started providing its customers with a vast array of tones and shades and achieved success as well as a loyal consumer base.

Inclusive brands and companies that prioritize offering a range of shades that cater to a wide range of skin tones always have their values of inclusivity and diversity on display. Offering an inclusive foundation shade range shows everyone your dedication to serving the vast needs of your customers. This, in turn, helps to establish a positive brand image, builds consumer trust and improves the brand image and reputation of the company. Beauty brands that show they value inclusivity and diversity can differentiate themselves from competitors who say these are among their values, but don’t prove it with products, and as a result attract new customers and increase brand recognition.

They can go online, make purchases, and get their clothing items delivered to their doorstep. This shift was the reason why both big and small fashion brands have started shifting toward eCommerce. There are some trends that fashion brands should stay away from. That’s why it’s important to know the difference between a positive and a negative industry trend.

Consumers are looking to do business with companies that have similar values to their own. The shift means that fashion brands will start showing that they’re contributing to the environment through sustainability practices. It also means fashion brands are going to become a lot more transparent about their work ethics. This is another important factor for consumers, and they’ll have to start to integrate politics. Fashion brands can integrate the politics that they support in different ways. They can include them in their social media content, and website. Some can even create specific clothing lines that refer to specific societal or political issues. In the meantime, they will need to invest in marketing and PR to ensure that the brand is getting the right messages across to its audiences.
