SNACK BREAK #16: Taylor vs Travis, Men you can’t trust, and the Super Bowl of Snacks.
It’s me again - Cait, your [insufferable] marketing manager at DEUX! Miss me yet? Doubtful.
Let’s get this out of the way:
We celebrated some SERIOUS wins this month. A successful Expo West, a meeting with [redacted] (sorry, can’t share their name yet), a nationwide launch in a major retailer & the comeback of our red velvet donuts that sold out in the blink of an eye (P.S. use code: IREADTHIS for 15% off your order (DON’T tell my boss).
Taylor vs Travis. Will they make it to the end [zone]:
She wasn’t yelling at him right? This image took social by storm for a good 24 hours while we were all wondered the same thing: “are WE about to tell TAYLOR to calm down?” So dear reader…we asked our team to weigh in on what she was yapping about, and the top 3 include:
A. Did you see the merch Olivia Rodrigo gave away at her shows? I NEED TO STEP IT UP!
B. You didn’t watch the latest epi of The Bachelor? They played MY song in the finale.
C. They’re saying my private jet is bad for the ENVIRONMENT!?
In Men, We [Don’t] Trust:
Speaking of men…this post ruffled QUITE A FEW FEATHERS, and for reasons we can’t wrap our head around! To announce our sale for Women’s History Month, we jokingly listed names of “men you shouldn’t trust” and the girls were squawking, sassing and yelling. Below, find my favorite response (by me) and the post in question:
WHAT DO U THINK:
The Super Bowl of Snacks:
I didn’t come up with that name ^ so don’t come for me. Every single year, all the cool snack brands get together (~800 brands to be exact) at Natural Products Expo West. In short, it’s a trade show for organic/healthy/trending products in our space. The nearly week-long event showcases launches, samples, activations, community networking, exclusive offers, etc.
I wanna share hard stats for u:
Our booth was boothing
We spoke to over 4,000 people in 72 hours (I wish I was joking)
We hosted morning coffee events, afternoon freebies & evening espresso martinis
We flew through 180 jars of cookie dough, 400 donuts and 500 tote bags
Most importantly: how cute are we?!
LASTLY, Women’s History Month is almost over:
Here are rapid fire, five FEMALE FOUNDED brands our team actually buys, gifts & loves:
FRESH SENDS: A brand reclaiming authentic connections through modern, relevant gifts...because who really wants a fruit basket or a laser-etched trinket? (pssst…we’re really good friends so they gave us a code: FSDEUX)
ALICE MUSHROOMS: Chic, safe & effective chocolate consumables that pair long-term benefits with immediate boosts to cognitive functioning. Brain blast, babes.
TÁCHE: The first true pistachio milk that’s redefining the standard of dairy alternatives with nutrition at its core. All the cutie pies are drinking them.
SET ACTIVE: Simplifying the way you get dressed effortlessly with designs that blur the line between form and function. Aka be an easy, breezy, cozy girl.
BALA: Beautiful, functional fitness equipment for any way you move. NO ultra-serious, exclusive workout gear found here. Slay and sweat simultaneously.
That’s all for now. STAY SWEET XO,
The DEUX team
