Falling for Pumpkin Spice, Caffeine and Marketing Success
It’s fall and you know that means—crunchy leaves, cozy sweaters, crisp morning walks, and the greatest gift of the season, pumpkin spice latte coffee drinks!
Here’s an interesting bit of information: Minneapolis is the number-one pumpkin spice city in the U.S. It’s true! The survey was conducted by analyzing coffee-related search terms (such as “coffee shops near me” or “give me my pumpkin spice latte or give me death”). And we’re in fourth place for most caffeinated city in America. Not bad, Minneapolitans, but let’s challenge ourselves to move up in the rankings and knock smug Seattle off its throne.
Fall is also a great time to catch your breath from a busy selling season and put together a robust marketing plan to ensure success in 2022.
Hit me up if you want to warm up with a fall-themed coffee at any of my favorite spots below and discuss plans for a wildly successful new year.
