Running a restaurant is no small feat, but your resilience and vision set you up for success. Here’s today’s reminder: "With this restaurant, I am building a future for my family, creating memories for my guests, and enjoying the best partners to keep growing." Your passion drives your success, and with the right financial partner, the possibilities are limitless.

Throughout my professional career, I’ve trained, leveraged the networks of, and scaled the endeavors of business entrepreneurs and civil society leaders. What I’ve found is that both small to midsize enterprises as well as nonprofits undervalue the benefits of and need for marketing.   Nonprofit marketing, in particular, 1) raises public awareness about societal issues, the impact your organization provides, and builds an audience for programmatic implementation; 2) increases your organization’s growth and reach through volunteerism and partnerships with like-minded individuals, nonprofits, corporations, etc.;  3) informs potential funders of your activities and impact and retains existing funders through continued and compelling storytelling; and 4) builds a brand personality that differentiates your organization from competitors in the funding and beneficiary landscape.   In the noise of non-profits, CSR initiatives, volunteerism and cause based entrepreneurism, it’s easy to get lost in the marketplace of effective change. It’s also hard to understand what marketing tactics your organization needs, how much staff or consulting support is needed, and what is a reasonable cost. If you or someone in your network would benefit from an audit or a refresh of your marketing efforts – including, but not limited to, trade show representation, website design, social media strategy, data impact visualizations, and video storytelling, please visit https://lnkd.in/eqW8bySR or reach out to me. My partner, Scott Kolbe, has worked in the marketing space for 20 years, and while his focus has been beverage and consumer goods, the fundamentals of successful marketing are applicable to all industries and to nonprofits.

As entrepreneurs, we know that every detail counts when it comes to building a strong company culture and leaving a lasting impression. One often overlooked yet powerful way to do this is through the food served at company gatherings. Great food is more than just a meal—it’s an experience. Selecting unique and high-quality dishes for your corporate events signals to your team and clients that they are valued. It’s not just about filling plates but creating moments that inspire connection, spark conversation, and leave an indelible mark of care and thoughtfulness. Think about it: a mediocre buffet fades from memory, but a beautifully prepared dish that’s as unique as your company’s mission stands out. It shows attention to detail and a commitment to excellence, mirroring the same qualities you want your team and stakeholders to embrace. Investing in memorable meals for your gatherings can pay dividends, fostering goodwill and reinforcing that your organization values its people. After all, culture isn’t just what happens in the office—it’s the moments like these that build bonds and strengthen loyalty. What’s your approach to creating unforgettable company events? Let’s discuss how you make your team feel valued. #mrcochinillo #bestcochinillointown #foodph #foodieph #pinoyfood #cochinillo #cochinilloph #cochinillomanila #bestcochinilloinmetromanila #bestcochinilloinmanila

Here’s a throwback photo from our last agency roundtable in June. Last Thursday, we visited a different branch of the same restaurant (Bao in King’s Cross), and yes—I couldn’t resist ordering the Dan Dan noodles again. But this time, I asked for just one 'Dan' to dial down the spice. No sweaty cheeks this time, especially with some peanut milk on the side! These masterminds and roundtables are more than just great food—they’re an incredible space for learning and growth. I love the opportunity to discuss shared challenges, swap insights, and explore topics. What makes these meet-ups truly special is the mix of casual conversation and meaningful, focused discussion. Connecting with other agency leaders in this way is both rewarding and validating (imposter syndrome likes to pop up now and then!). These roundtables also help strike the perfect balance between giving and receiving value, which always leaves me feeling more confident and inspired. Though we didn’t manage to get a photo last night (where’s a content manager when you need one? 😂), the ideas shared and connections made were more than memorable. Can’t wait for the next one! #RoundTable #Mastermind #AgencyLife #ProfessionalDevelopment #Networking
