Description

May 24, 2023 by Corinna In today's podcast, I interview Camilla Lombard, co-owner of SeaForager -- a community supported fishery located in the San Francisco Bay area. Camilla is doing a lot of things intrinsically right with her marketing. Her location is ideal for her product. As the author of a renowned seaforager's guide, her husband has authority in the fishing space which helps them attract new clients. And with a "fun" brand that includes singing sea shantys and leading seashore foraging tours, her weekly seafood membership is an obvious next step for her ideal clients. In this interview, we talk through her marketing funnel, what she's learned about her ideal customer, and how she nails her website messaging. No matter what kind of business you are, you'll see the classic marketing principles at play that you can apply to your own farm business!
