Description

‘Sales is a persistence game’

In this episode i’m joined by Emily Boyce, founder of Sweet Thyme Foods. We dig into the real mechanics of getting on shelf - and staying there. Emily shares a pragmatic, step-by-step route from specialty to scale, how to pitch buyers who get 200+ emails a day, and why persistence beats perfection every time.

In this episode:

  • The “stepping stones” route to great distribution
  • “Beacon outlets” as brand builders: credibility, discoverability, fast feedback loops
  • What buyers actually want (and why long emails kill deals)
  • Persistence systems: staying on it when founders are spinning plates
  • How to pitch: keeping it short & sweet
  • Founder mindset: progress over perfection

Listen if: you’re building a challenger brand and want a calm, concrete roadmap for compounding growth.
