Marketing for A Foodie
Happy October everyone.
I hope the Fall weather is crisp and cool wherever you are today! A very big congratulations to Kaitlyn, for winning my Tropical Eats Giveaway. As some of you may know, I work part-time as an ice cream scooper at the local Ben & Jerry’s Scoop Shop. This semester, I’m very fortunate to assist with marketing opportunities for the store. I’ll be managing our new GroovyDeals Twitter account, promoting daily specials, and finding unique ways increase the customer’s experience. I can’t wait to share these exciting Ben & Jerry’s adventures with you.
Scrambled eggs, black bean salsa, ham slices, and a Granny Smith Apple


Before I went to tutoring one day, I made a trip to the local Publix and bought a Starbucks Double Shot Energy + Coffee Drink and a fresh fruit & walnut salad. I probably could have won a food competition, I drank and ate these both so fast.
Reading and old Women’s Health Magazine. I’m a Country music kind of girl, and I knew I had to buy this magazine when I saw Taylor Swift on the cover. Rascal Flatts, Jason Aldean, and Keith Urban are a few of my other favorite artists.


Learning Consumer Theory while eating an Apple Ginger Honest Foods Bar.
Review: This is my new favorite bar! The flavor was so interesting and it didn’t taste extremely sugary like CLIFBARs. This Honest Foods Bar was definitely the perfect snack to cure my late night “study munchies.” The bar has 5g of Protein, which is somewhat low, but the unique flavor completely outweighs the nutritional stats.
I encourage you all to look at the Honest Foods website. Their marketing approach may shock you, but it will certainly get you to remember their product.
McDonald’s Chicken Nuggets.. my favorite! I promise there was a lot of honey mustard dipping action going on when I had these. Everything seems to taste better with honey mustard.
Have a great week friends!




Working at Ben and Jerry’s sounds like a fun oppertunity! That fresh fruit + walnut salad looks really good!
How exciting – that job sounds awesome! Enjoy it, it’s perfect for you
I adore Honest Food bars – I ran out a while ago, but that reminds me that I should stock up, once my bar stash gets lower
Glad you enjoyed it, and the classic McD’s with honey mustard – perfection
Enjoy your week!
Love,
Meg
Loving your breakfast, never thought of having “black beans”, I will try that! =) Laura

Just came across your blog while reading some of my favorites. Sounds like an interesting job, I have always wondered about who was actually doing the twitter accounts for some places. I guess a good answer is probably college students and interns!
