Call For Food Product Submissions. FoodStuff Comes to Cleveland 2013.

Nov. 9, 2012 - PRLog -- FoodStuff (FS), the popular LA food awareness and foodie event series has come to N.E. Ohio, launching 2013. The FoodStuff Cleveland program is a unique on / off-line program dedicated to discovering, exploring and promoting foodstuffs, their histories, and relevance today. The program features dynamic lectures and forums to entertaining food driven events to creative exhibitions; FS merges the foodie lifestyle with knowledgebase into a creative and informative and exhilarating experiential happening. Foodstuff offers new a way to incorporate the dialogue about food into the public conversation in a collaborative and innovative way.

FS is seeking food product / service companies and establishments interested in marketing their product or service to its 3500 plus network of local, sophisticated professionals and foodies. Products / services are featured on the FS Perks! Program webpage and disseminated across the FoodStuff network and accessible via web. The FS Perks! Program is a tailored customer referral promotions program wholly available to FoodStuff members. The goal of the program is to create added value for members, and provide auxiliary promotional services for companies interested in reaching a targeted, local audience—not dissimilar from the Groupon  crowd-marketing concept.

FoodStuff is calling upon local and national food product companies and local establishments, searching for health conscious, unique and/or sustainable food lifestyle items or services, but not limited to such, to offer to its forward-thinking and food conscious members. As a promoter, your product or establishment’s service offering will be featured for up to six months in the FS e-newsletter and through other promotional channels. The service also offers social media alerts and tailored promotional services for distinct food items. There is no set-up or marketing fees associated with the FS Perks! Program at this time. In addition, the program is powered by powerful campaign analytics using the latest performance software.

“As food continues to shape the world around us, the benefits of “good food” become clearer, yet many companies still struggle to show their value in a cluttered market. FoodStuff has a distinctly different food literacy program model. Today, companies that succeed do so by taking the time to develop a solid socially conscious product or service strategy, establish a personal relationship with their followers, and allocate the necessary resources, which doesn’t take much. How will this change the future of food awareness? FoodStuff is producing dynamic events, exhibitions and special engagements centered on food. But our appeal isn’t modeled around one idea; instead, it merges several ideas and is designed to involve subliminal content or information for the viewer. We like to think of it as an “experiential learning experience”. We take the time to discover what really interest people and we incorporate that information based on our relationships and experiences dealing with them. And of course, food is always built-in into the format—no one leaves hungry from a FoodStuff event”, says Jason Eugene, Chief Creative and Founder. “Among the perks which we’ll offer to entice the public, FS will constantly survey its audience and will provide promoters with insight based upon that data. In Los Angeles the FoodStuff program was widely accepted, and we managed to attract some very well known celebrities and industry professionals with a return participation rate of around 74%. Cleveland has an established and strong food culture, and we’re looking forward to engaging with its members”.
