Collaborations have become an integral marketing strategy in CPG. As a startup, building brand awareness while establishing a viable business can be a delicate balancing act, especially when barriers to entry are fairly low, but operational costs add up fast. 

That dynamic has pushed many early-stage brands to look beyond their own audience, seeking out collaborations with other companies as well as content creators to accelerate awareness as they work to build beyond their own niches.

We recently sat down with Kendall Dickieson, a social marketing strategist who supported brands such as Graza, Laoban, Olipop and more through their early stages via her firm Flexible Creative. Dickieson broke down the key elements that contribute to an effective collaboration, where to start and what it takes to make each post and product a success.

Insiders can access the full story to go deep into the growth stories of companies that have mastered the art of collaborative product drops.

The CPG business is undergoing a shift, but without a crystal ball to determine where the industry will be in a decade from now, we’ll have to rely on recent news and survey responses from those on the front lines.
