.drinks throwing out limited edition tote bags on the last day. I’ve never seen elbows fly like it.

That’s the last day of a trade show for you. The samples get generous and the merch goes fast.

Last week I popped over to London’s ExCeL for . A few things stuck with me.
The rebrand out in the wild really coming together for the first time. Proper stand, uniformed crew, very tasty samples. I’m a fan.
Functional coconut water heading over from Australia. Metallic silver cartons, three SKUs, each with its own job. Electrolytes, magnesium, collagen. I spotted them from about thirty feet away. I reckon they’ll do well here.
Gut friendly, allergen free cereal from founder Caragh Keane, built off the back of her own health struggles. Tiger nuts, cassava, nothing nasty in there. Real story, real purpose, and it tastes good. Great to see a brand like that getting some traction.
A sushi train bar serving cocktails, and a set of surreal hands holding cartons. Daft in the best way.

And Zoe Fox recording her podcast with her boss James Averdieck, founder of Gü and Coconut Collab. A really good listen.

Far too much to cover in one reel. If you make food or drink, stick next year’s in the diary.

As for the tote bag, Vicki and our daughter are still arguing over who gets it. I might just keep it. 😅

If your instincts got the brand this far, some of them are right. The job is finding which ones.

That’s the whole approach we take with a rebrand. Strategy first, design second, and we keep what’s working instead of starting from a blank page.

Nekeia sells things with words for a living. She still couldn’t describe her own brand.

That’s not a knock on her. It’s what happens to every founder eventually. You build the thing, you live inside it, and slowly the brand stops being a thing you can see and starts being just... you.

Which is fine, right up until a stranger has to understand it in two seconds on a shelf.

Your brand doesn’t get to come to the shop with you.

It sits on a shelf, next to everyone else, and it gets about two seconds and a glance from someone who’s never heard of you. Whatever it says in that moment, it says on its own.

That’s the shift a strategy session makes. We pull everything out of your head, all the reasons and instincts you can’t quite put into words, and we reorder it around the one person who matters: the shopper reaching for your product.

We did it with Nekeia at Tudy’s Kitchen. The product was always exceptional. Once the brand was built around her customer instead of around her, the pack finally said so in two seconds flat.

Most founders think strategy is the expensive bit before the real work. So they skip it and go straight to the nice-looking part.

Then the nice-looking part doesn’t work, because nothing underneath it was decided. So they pay again for the version that does.

We made a film about a founder who’d been there. It’s on YouTube now, link in bio.

🎈Two birthdays in this house today. Mine, and Raffy’s third. Yes we have the same birthday! 🎈

Five photos, three years. The only one where he’s sitting still is the one where he’s asleep, and he was a few weeks old at the time.

You’ll also notice he’s got considerably bigger and I’ve carried on picking him up regardless.

Still banned from the room when we’re on calls. Still no interest whatsoever in the concept of a working day.

Happy birthday, Raff! ❤️

Catching up on a busy few weeks, today looking back at Pentawards Meets: Jury Edition 👌

I got invited along to see this year’s shortlist, all 700 of them, and sit in on a panel of judges talking through what they’d been seeing.

Amazing to see a shortlist that big in one room. You get a real sense of where the category’s heading. It was great to see it all in person, print finishes, little details, all the different formats.

Best bit though was the people. A few familiar faces, a few new ones, and the ace chats that come with it.

Shoutout Morgan Hastie | Brand & Packaging Designer, Cj Cawley | Graphic Designer, , , , and Carol Kemp to name a few 🙌

Well worth the trip.

The cheapest brand research you’ll ever do, and almost nobody does it.

Go stand in your aisle and try to answer the one question a shopper’s actually asking.

It’s been great seeing everyone’s logo work popping up with .now. A nice excuse to look through the archives. Here are some new ones and some old.
