BREWGOODER: BRAND, GROWTH & IMPACT

Advising a fast-growing challenger brand on how brand and impact grow together

THE CHALLENGE

Brewgooder is a B Corp beer brand built around a simple idea: use business growth to create positive social impact.

As the company scaled, the founders needed to strengthen the strategic foundations beneath the brand — clarifying what it stood for, how it communicated and how its commercial growth connected credibly to its expanding social impact.

MY ROLE

I joined Brewgooder as a Non-Executive Director and Trustee of the Brewgooder Foundation, working directly with the founders in both advisory and consulting capacities.

My role spanned brand, impact, marketing, partnerships and organisational growth — providing strategic challenge as well as practical support where needed.

THE APPROACH

I helped develop the foundations for the next stage of the brand, including its purpose, vision, mission, values, tone of voice, audience thinking and positioning.

I developed a prototype brand playbook to create greater consistency across agencies and creative partners, alongside an impact framework designed to help Brewgooder and its Foundation connect business activity credibly with the issues important to the company and its community.

I also advised the founders on marketing, partnerships and resourcing, and helped connect the business with potential strategic partners and supporters.

THE VALUE

The work created stronger strategic foundations for a growing brand — connecting brand, audience and impact more coherently and giving internal teams and external partners a clearer framework from which to work.
