4 Things Seattle Chocolate Can Teach You About Sustainable Branding and Marketing:
1. Market for brands you’re already aligned with, it makes your job so much easier.
"As a marketer, you can work and speak for hundreds of different brands, and that's tough because you have to find each brand's voice and kind of work within that for yourselves. But as you know, there are brands you already align with and it makes it so much easier."
2. To avoid greenwashing, promote your sustainability by being TRANSPARENT about your process (your recycling, your carbon footprint, etc.). Use real data, conduct real studies, understand your true impact then be transparent about it.
3. Don’t be serious all the time. Seriousness can be draining. Instead, ask yourself this:
“What creative things can we do to push sustainability?”
4. Work with partners who tell the same story as you.
“We really like to work with people who are aligned with us too. Like activists or eco-activists or people who are using their art to tell the same story. We're using chocolate too and that makes it fun and exciting and much more marketable."
