I’ve been loving the world of food and beverage branding and advertising since my childhood in communist Poland, where I maniacally collected and studied Western CPG packaging and ads. After earning an MA in sociology and studying human behaviors and persuasion, I worked with food and beverage CPG consumer focus groups and market data analysis. My creative calling and instincts eventually led me to my current endeavors in Los Angeles where I produce food and beverage advertising content and media, and ultimately to the founding of Phoode®.
Throughout my experiences, I’ve witnessed the intricacies of creating marketing and advertising strategies for CPG products, food service brands, and food media. Over the years, countless stories have accumulated from my professional and creative journey, each one shaping my perspective and fueling my passion. Recently, I’ve felt a strong urge to express myself through writing about these experiences and complementing them with edgy AI editorial illustrations to further illustrate my points 😉
This initiative is fueled by genuine passion, inspired by my own experiences and observations within the industry. My goal is to offer unique insights and share observations that may not be readily apparent to everyone. Recently, I’ve observed a troubling trend in marketing—an emphasis on superficial tactics and flashy strategies that ultimately lack depth and authenticity. I firmly believe that such approaches cannot generate long-lasting results.
In my writing, I aim to guide brands, agencies, and creatives in breaking free from the obvious and embracing meaningful storytelling. I firmly believe in the power of authentic narratives to build enduring brands and effectively sell food and beverage products.
I invite you to join me on this journey towards creating impactful and resonant connections with audiences.
Thanks for reading!
Cheers 🥂
