Part of the market, part of the stereotype? Is Dutch Bros becoming just another coffee stand?

-

   A simple question, if you accidentally make an extra cup of coffee, do you throw it away? Most people would give that extra cup of coffee away, …...but not the new face of Dutch Bros?  As many of you I am sure are aware, our very own local coffee family Dutch Bros, went public on the stock exchange September 15th of this year. This company historically has aligned well with my own value system, and I have even had the opportunity to meet Travis, and it is very important to me that it maintains its mission statement. Travis is the type of guy who would finance one of his employees, starting up their own franchise, if they showed the passion for it   (Assuming all other prerequisites for franchising had been met).  All employees started at the same level, and genuinely had equal opportunity. There was no outside influence, and so the values of Dutch Bros were consistent. But with Travis no longer running the show, new changes like the app coming out, and most recently the company goin

Dentsu caught my eye and lost it just as fast….but why? Dentsu Is a international marketing company. In other words they are the plug. From product development, to marketing, this company has been around since 1901 and knows how to make an impact.

The who's who of marketing

  Oi, Who Dis?! 10/02/2021 Well my name is Jared. I am 26, and I don't write blogs. 😅 Have you ever met an extrovert who acts like an introvert? Yeah well that's me. As the nerdy media I fallow would say, "I am indeed down to clown" #Birdman. So I love parties, aka 2020 sucked, but I hate social media. I don't use Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter to the dismay of my girlfriend. So writing a blog will be interesting... Like most people, this last year was super hard.  At this point in my journey, my goal is to get my degree and travel abroad.  For 5 years I was homeless, and even completed some years of my education from a tent. One of the few positives to come from that was all the opportunity to travel. I have visited every state, and every hotspot attraction in the United States, with the exception of the Grand Canyon. My next stop after school is Malaysia, to visit where my girlfriend is originally from, and after that we are thinking about Canada 🇨🇦! Who kno
