Soon to be on a boat.

This week has been attacking colleges and prepping for summer.

We officially have a 22 ft pontoon party boat and are going to be pimping on the water. All we need now is a helicoptor for air promotions! That should be arriving in 2011.

Last week we rocked Brock the Port at SUNY Brockport. It was a little suspect at first because of the weather but turned out to be a great event. Also, with college finals being in session we have been invading the libraries and letting people know about the product and having them check out the website and video. We are a perfect excuse to not study and talk to some devilishly good looking guys for 5 minutes!

Otherwise we have continued building our relationship with Wright Wisner and riding along with the sales reps to grab some new stores. We are hoping once they adjust to their new software to update our store locator with over 100 new stores!

We are always on the lookout for some new stores and outdoor events and festivals this summer. If anyone has an idea please let us know! If we have a free day we are always trying to get the word out about Vital!

PS: Thanks to Scott we have 2 new HUGE coolers on wheels. This means even more mobile sampling on the fly! Next we obviously need this: Cruzin Cooler

Getting to know Wright

Ride alongs. This week we have been getting to know some of the sales reps and riding with them in order to learn what they do. It also allows us to teach them what our product is about and tell them our story. Personalize Vital Energy kiddos. Imagine my face every time you take a sip...

There were some more kick off meetings at another branch and we are spreading the gospel of Vital Energy to the masses. It is working in some places and we still have a lot of ground to cover in others. Now we need to get more POS (point of sales) materials so that we can tattoo the stores we are for sale in and have a commanding presence.

I also chose through careful planning and immense luck to take a vacation to visit family and attend a wedding this past week. Of course at this point, every week from here until eternity is going to be important and have many things going on.

Otherwise, colleges are tipping into summer and we are gearing up for high school sports teams and our May 22 special teams clinic with some 2 members of the Jacksonville Jaguars. Should be a doozy.

Quick and painless,
Jake
