A great article that won't make it into this week's newsletter; your packaging can influence what people expect from your product: https://www.bentley.edu/news/tempting-more-taste-buds-how-packaging-influences-chocolate-choices

CPG Fast Track (Consumer Packaged Goods) are offering free reviews of your packaging, live in an online video. The webinar takes place on the 25th February with a recording if you can't make it live. https://riverside.com/webinar/registration/eyJzbHVnIjoibWFya3VzLWthcmphbGFpbmVucy1zdHVkaW8tQWhGdFkiLCJldmVudElkIjoiNjk3Y2FiNjU2OGFkNzczMmU1MTFmNzJhIiwicHJvamVjdElkIjoiNjk3Y2FiNjVmODNlZjZhZjYzNTFhNDRjIn0=

Note, there's a new Sales & Marketing category, for discussing getting more sales and improving promotions/campaigns (not for self-promotion).
