277: Spotlight on Cider | Bringing the Bellies to the Bar Pt 4

Getting Cider into the Spotlight

This episode is Part 4 of the 4 Part series from CraftCon 2021 panel discussion on Bringing the Bellies to the Bar. In Part 1 we discussed "Who is Cider's Audience?" and "Who would you like the Audience to be?". In Part 2 we delved into Strategy for marketing cider. In Part 3 we we hear what both entices the panelist and what is disagreeable or in other words - Are you tempted by cider?

In this episode we finish up this 4 part series by sharing our tips on how makers can get their cider into the "Spotlight" or "How do you catch the attention of Cider Writers, Podcasters, Pommeliers and bottle shop owners?"
