Demeter suggests two sub-committees within the CPG Trade Committee, each with specific, project-focused activities (i.e. no meetings just to have meetings!). Please review the sub-committees below, with examples of potential activities, and let us know which one(s) you want to sign up for. Our hope is that everyone on the CPG Trade Committee will join at least one sub-committee. And if you would be interested in chairing one of these sub-committees, please let us know by February 1, 2019.
Marketing & Media Outreach: This group will further develop key talking points, collateral materials, and communication strategies, as well as fostering key lifestyle, food, health & wellness and other media relationships and outreach.
Industry Engagement: This group will have primary responsibility for educating the natural food industry and coordinating collaborative trade show and retail sales programs. Examples of sub-committee work may include the development of educational materials and programs like webinars; working together on promotional activities like retailer sales programs with dedicated endcaps, POS, and coupon books; developing signage; and leveraging trade show participation.
