It was December 2011 when we posted our first article on our site. Since then, we have written and posted over 500 articles on what it takes to sell a real, hold-it-in-your-hand product. We have covered a comprehensive set of subjects from logos to labels, from catch phrases to freight, from packaging to pricing, and from distribution to distinguishing yourself from your competition. All was done with the intention of sharing our real world experience with other consumer brand builders.
Save Time and Money
It took us 20 years to build the Barefoot Wine brand. We were outsiders and suffered from many of the same popularly held misconceptions that have wrecked many brands. Our articles demystify the brand building process using our real-world experience. What we share are hard learned lessons generally not taught in school. It is our hope that other consumer brand builders have benefited from our writings and will avoid many of the expensive and time consuming mistakes we have made.

Many of our readers have thanked us for explaining complex concepts in plain English about branded products and how to sell them. We are happy to know that our insights and strategies have helped so many.
Unglamourous Essentials
Yes, there’s a lot more to branded product success than just a great product in a cool package with an outstanding logo. And yes, those are required and we write at length about them. But what we really focus on is the less glamorous nitty-gritty of the distribution and retail world because that’s where most brands die!
