The Power of Influencer Marketing
Ryan Ayotte, 26, is the founder of Ohza. In June 2019, after attempting to mix mimosas on a tippy boat off Cape Cod with some friends, he saw a need for "convenient" cocktails that were less caloric and less sugary than the malt beverages on the market. With no preservatives or artificial flavorings, Ohza makes four flavors of mimosas and bellinis sold directly to consumers in 43 states and in 1,700-plus retailers in the Northeast, including Whole Foods. With less than $600,000 in funding, Ayotte says Ohza will see revenue in the seven figures this year, 30 times more than in 2019.
See how Talent Resources helped jump-start Ohza leading Ryan Ayotte to become listed in Forbes 30 under 30 in 2021.

Founded in 2001 by Deborah Kwan
“I have a talent for making connections and communicating persuasively and succinctly. I keep my client list small to ensure personal contact and targeted campaigns. I love working with both new and established brands.”
Deborah Kwan, president and CEO of DKPR, Inc., has years of experience in public relations and brand building working with clients in the food, beverage and publishing industries. Current and past clients include Aidells Sausage Company, Bruce Cost Ginger Ale, ChefShop.com, Gastronomica: The Journal of Food & Culture (University of California Press), Gelateria Naia, Guittard Chocolate Company, Hodo Foods, Laura Chenel, the Perfect Purée of Napa Valley, Recchiuti Confections, Scharffen Berger Chocolate Maker, and Valrhona. She has secured media coverage for her clients in outlets like Bon Appétit, Food & Wine, Forbes, Los Angeles Times, New York Times, New York, O, The Oprah Magazine, Real Simple, San Francisco Chronicle, Saveur, Vogue, Wall Street Journal, and Wine Spectator.
Prior to becoming an independent consultant, she helmed the San Francisco office of a NYC-based boutique agency where she oversaw the consumer lifestyle practice and new business development. Her food writing appeared in the San Jose Mercury News’ food column “Cooking on the Rim.” Deborah also worked as a pastry cook in San Francisco and New York City after earning a blue ribbon diploma from Peter Kump’s New York Cooking School (now known as The Institute of Culinary Education).
Before making the transition to food, Deborah worked for several years as a literary publicist in New York City for Random House, Viking Press, HarperCollins, and Times Books where she designed and managed the national publicity campaigns for best-selling authors including Terry McMillan, Armistead Maupin, Ken Kesey, Tobias Wolff, and David Leavitt.
Deborah graduated from the University of California at Berkeley with a bachelor’s in English literature. She’s a San Francisco native, where she lives with her husband, Chef Erik Cosselmon, and their two children. She is an avid baker and doesn’t consider a meal complete without dessert.

Testimonials
-
Of all the publicists I’ve worked with over the years (and there have been many), Deborah stands out. I love how she thinks so creatively about each project and goes beyond standard approaches to p.r. Her contacts are impressive, her enthusiasm infectious, and her energy never flags. I can’t recommend her more highly!
Darra Goldstein, Author and food scholar
-
Deborah Kwan has worked on a variety of projects that I have worked on. She has an innate understanding of the complexities of "maker" products and knows how and to whom this information can be shared. Plus, she is a blast to work with!
John Scharffenberger

Deborah goes above and beyond to create authentic stories that bring our brand to life. She is a well-respected and well-connected PR expert who has been a tremendous (and enthusiastic!) asset to our team.
Amy Guittard, Marketing Director, Guittard Chocolate Company
-
Deborah’s passion for food is the foundation of her dedication. Her background in the culinary industry has given her the insider’s view and understanding of what makes a chef tick … highlighting those talents. She represented Recchiuti Confections when “artisan chocolatiers” in the United States were still following the lead of more established brands like La Maison du Chocolat and helped put this American brand on the map, placing us toe-to-toe with our European counterparts.
Michael and Jacky Recchiuti, founders, Recchiuti Confections
-
Getting the media interested in tofu is challenging. Using her extensive experience in the food space, Deborah not only guided us in developing a broad message about our brand, but also devised tailored messages for specific media outlets and journalists when we had news of innovations and events.
The consummate professional, Deborah is trusted by journalists to pitch meaningful stories of rising brands.
Deborah delivers when it counts.
Minh Tsai, Founder & CEO, Hodo Foods
-
Deborah Kwan is one of the most professional, personable and effective publicists and communicators about all things food, whether it be food products, food literature and food personalities. As a journalist, corporate food program manager and private business owner of learning kitchens and events, I counted on her to provide me with substantive content, smooth logistics and clear writing. I can't recommend her more highly.

The ask: Studio Seven Consulting was contracted by Atlantic Records to coordinate and execute a launch party for artist Lizzo and her new single, "Juice".
The answer: Our next step was to design a full-service campaign that included everything from PR to POS design that helped the brand to stand out amongst other seltzers in a very competitive market, and clearly express its premium nature, benefits, and other unique qualifiers in a way that felt fun and exciting to the predominately female market across the midwest and beyond. The campaign deliverables included various Retail POS, end-cap, and Packaging design, Creative Direction and Delivery of multiple Advertising campaigns (across OOH, Digital, and Video), as well as PR. Social Media, and overall branding & strategy consulting.
The results speak for themself, with PRESS in a top-ten position in their category. In the midst of our campaign Constellation Brands, the largest beer import company in the US, acquired a minority stake in PRESS.

Broadcast coverage
Broadcast media coverage can make or break a brand. Hey, everyone gets their 15 minutes, right? With Crier, sometimes you get a lot more.
-
World Gyoza Eating Championship
Crier has been generating publicity for Day-Lee Foods World Gyoza Eating Championship year after year, securing media placements in the dozens of media outlets including the Los Angeles Times, USA Today, TMZ, E! News, KNBC-TV, and a returning champion, Joey Chestnut, even co-hosted a Fox 11 News (Los Angeles) segment.
-
"Egg Mixer" Media Events
Tasked with creating PR buzz for Davidson’s Safest Choice Pasteurized Eggs, Crier conceived and executed "Egg Mixer" media events in Los Angeles, Chicago and Miami with celebrity Top Chef Brooke Williamson. Since Safest Choice Eggs are safe to eat raw, we kicked off each night with a raw egg shooter challenge before Chef Williamson led private, hands-on cooking classes with our A-list attendees which included Los Angeles Magazine, KCRW, Hungry Girl and more. An egg-celent time was had by all!
-
Austria Uncorked
The Austrian Wine Marketing Board enlisted Crier to produce their first ticketed wine tastings, Austria Uncorked, in NYC, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Miami and Chicago. Crier organized and staffed these turnkey events, logo, website and campaign slogan: Get your grüv on! The result?

Internal PR
Our internal campaign for Western Governors University helped motivate faculty and employees to keep their focus on student success. Our creative touch points included logos, monthly postcards, screen savers, custom magic 8 balls and other creative ways to keep the message top-of-mind.
-
The ‘Lightweight’ Champ
With Crier's PR and social media expertise, Halo Top became the #1 selling pint of ice cream in the U.S. Media wins included GQ, Cooking Light, Men's Health and Prevention - twice!
-
Erchonia Medical
Crier was hired to secure national media visibility for a new, non-invasive, body-contouring laser from Erchonia called the Zerona. We secured national before and after segments on the TODAY Show, CBS Early Show, The Doctors and Good Morning America. We also secured health coverage in top women’s magazines including SELF, Harper's Bazaar and Allure.
-
Tofurky Tuesdays
Pledge to go meat-free—preferably Tuesdays—and help save the planet in the process. A simple idea that generated a lot of press coverage for our client Turtle Island Foods.
-
Pitch Me!
In 1949, Vitamix founder William “Papa” Barnard created the first infomercial in the U.S. Leveraging this history, our "Pitch Me" promotion sought to find the next video demonstration star. We built a microsite for the crowd-sourced entries and secured national coverage in the process - including a syndicated article by the Associated Press.
-
Breyers’ YoCrunch Yogurt
Crier executed a simple yet cost-effective Halloween promotion on behalf of Breyers. If consumers sent us candy wrappers—any wrapper—we’d send them a coupon for a free, treat-topped Breyers’ YoCrunch Yogurt. Crier garnered national and regional media coverage, not to mention thousands of candy wrappers!
-
Andrea Electronics
Crier leveraged Andrea Electronics' 50 year history to tell the story of its first consumer-facing product—SuperBeam™ "boom-free" USB headsets. We secured several high-profile placements in USA Today and The New York Times along with plenty of positive technology blog coverage and rave reviews from Gadget Guy and Mac Observer. Crier’s efforts resulted in 187,911,655 media impressions overall.
-
Cosmi Corporation
Cosmi Corporation sold more units of productivity software than even Microsoft. Yet CEO George Johnson doggedly never used a computer. We found out his employees finally gifted him one only to discover he used his monitor as post-it note holder! This quirky peg won us a 7-page feature story in Inc., and features in BusinessWeek, in The Los Angeles Times and on NPR.
-
Take a look at the bright side
Crier was tasked with spreading consumer awareness of Carex Health Brands’ Bright Light Therapy Lamps in treating the winter blues. We provided media with studies that not only demonstrated the efficacy of the lamps in treating SAD but also explained the many year round uses for the machine. Crier secured top placements in national newspapers, blogs and online news sites — including Health, Real Simple, Bustle and more.
-
A Head for Business
When 21-year-old Andrew Fisher auctioned off his forehead for ad space on Ebay, Crier’s client SnoreStop had the winning bid and an international media firestorm ensued. The Associated Press, Wall Street Journal, Good Morning America, CNBC, New York Times and Inside Edition covered the story – most using the "Head For Business" line found in Crier's original press release.

Brand Audit & Key Message Development
THE CHEAPEST AND FASTEST WAY With your brand strategy framework set, you may be asking yourself, “Now what? How do we begin to put all of this collective thinking into practice?” To kick-start your team’s efforts, we’ll begin by gathering our team to consult on your top marketing priorities and deliver a few practical executions you can react to immediately.EHY’s social team is underpinned by a branch of experienced writers and content strategists who employ a slew of editorial techniques from episodic content to social personas to content pillars that lead to the development of fully integrated campaigns. This way we curate relevant storytelling that meets our audience where they are in their daily lives. Ultimately resulting in a community of dedicated and engaged supporters.Being at the forefront of influencer management, we know how to identify right-fit influencers with the propensity to move the needle for our clients. Working directly with all tiers of food and lifestyle influencers, we establish credible partnerships that broaden exposure, deliver word-of-mouth influence and grow audience base.Every brand’s social needs are different, but there comes a point when you need a bigger impact than what an organic post can deliver alone. That’s why EHY applies both art and science when developing, testing and optimizing unique audience profiles for ad targeting. Taking this approach ensures we’re not just inflating your numbers, but growing your base purposefully so we continue to deliver high-engagement results.When we manage a community, we do so from playbook creation to implementation. From surprise and delights for super fans to crisis communication talking points, we’ve seen it all and have the best-in-class, customer-centric experience to keep sentiments in the positive corner.We tell stories with data (versus simply just reporting on the numbers) and know how to identify clear implications and recommendations. By offering our clients in-depth monthly and quarterly reports and setting annual KPI goals and stretch goals, we make certain our efforts are making an impact.The truth is, taste is only one of the five senses that defines our food preferences. It’s this fundamental truth that drives us to develop full-sensory experiences for our clients, from chef events and unique partnerships to cultural culinary moments.We believe meaningful moments happen at the intersection of information and entertainment. From foodservice product demonstrations like Camp Walnuts to big media magnets like the Idaho Potato Truck to quaint dinners co-hosted by the Peruvian Ambassador to the United Nations (that reached millions), we ensure our events don’t just happen — they deliver lasting impact.From booth building and panel discussions to product demonstrations, sales collateral and sampling, we understand food shows and conferences have a myriad of competing priorities. And while we are always there walking the halls of the food shows with our clients (from Fancy to Natural Products to PMA,) we’re also there in every capacity necessary in the months, weeks and days leading up to the moment.In celebration of JS2’s 20th anniversary, we honor the foundation built by co-founders Jeff Smith and Jill Sandin. With Jill’s departure in early 2021, Jeff and the executive team lead us into a third decade of excellence, always guided by our core values and professional mantra: W.I.T.

Food Advertising Creative Closes Out 2022, Looks Toward Super Sunday
In this quarter’s food advertising creative roundup, CPG Liquid Death Water stages a “Taze” Test, Ocean Spray Cranberries get “jiggly” with it, and QSR Dave’s Hot Chicken markets FOMO while Dole pushes YOLO.

Let’s BeReal: Not Every Emerging Social Media Platform is Right For Your Food Brand
TikTok and BeReal may be the hottest social media platforms on the market right now, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re the right fit for your brand. In general, figuring out which social media platforms are a right fit can be confusing, or downright catastrophic if you don’t look before…
Development & Application
When it comes to knowing how to get your product on menus across America, our kitchen is stocked and ready for innovation. With a touch of our culinary and nutrition know-how, a helping hand of the latest food trends and a dash of professional chefs at the ready, we know how to take a recipe from ideation-to-menu in no time.
Trust is the cornerstone of building a social community of advocates, which is why EHY takes an audience-centric approach to our social programs. That means we start with a simple assumption: people aren’t dying to see your ads while they thumb through Instagram. That’s why every program is informed by a deep dive into your brand’s target—audience their interests, behaviors, motivations and expectations. We then weave narratives from these insights into our digital best-practices to ensure we’re developing sticky content that exceeds the KPIs we’ve mutually identified.
EHY’s social framework sets a solid foundation for on-going engagement by defining your brand’s social persona, social strategy (inclusive of personalized content pillars and content series) and on-trend seasonal considerations.

We’re passionate advocates of strong branding, and we know that you envision the kind of brand impression that captures your customer’s attention, engages their senses and evokes an emotion that drives action. Yeah, we get it, and it just happens to be one of our favorite creative challenges, which is why we’re always willing to dive in head first to
overdeliver.
Leveraging our food category experience, we’ll dive into your existing data (and we’ll commission new research of our own if needed) to fully familiarize ourselves with your brand and where it currently fits into today’s omni-channel marketplace. Throughout this process we’ll plot key indicators across your brand’s entire path-to-purchase to provide a comprehensive map of where you’re strong and where you have an opportunity to grow.We start our competitive reviews with the same approach that most agencies do, collecting insights from your top competitors, blah, blah, blah. Looking at their product offerings, distribution channels, in-store and online presence, marketing messaging, spend, blah, blah blah. And just like everyone else we deliver a 360° view of the marketplace. The difference with us? The insights we collect actually have value. And once we have those insights, we can provide you with a clear POV on what we believe to be your unique selling and value proposition, and the ways in which you can pivot to stand out
Food marketing is constantly evolving – our job is to make sure your brand is ahead of it. Whether that’s helping you snag more shelf space, build volume, increase dollar share or accelerate velocity at retail, we’ll create a well-defined brand strategy as a strong foundation for long-term growth.
The truth is, great brands deliver upon their promise, attract loyalty beyond reason and evolve as their customers and the marketplace shift. This level of scrutiny takes an ardent confidence in where you are and where you’re headed. It also just so happens to be precisely what we deliver when defining your brand strategy. From an intensive brand audit to competitive positioning and even branding, our goal is to collaborate to establish a brand road map that unlocks unmet market opportunities.
Food marketing isn’t always as easy as selling those proverbial hotcakes everyone talks about. It takes a ton of category experience. And for the last 30 years we’ve been helping brands to drive the purchase, preparation, and consumption of food in some of the industry’s toughest categories – including CPG, branded produce, and food commodity boards.
SERVICES
We’re a true full-service food marketing agency, i.e. we offer a smorgasbord of proficiencies.
At EvansHardy+Young, we know that effective food marketing takes a lot more than a few clever food puns. It requires dedicating a ton of thyme gaining an intimate knowledge of your brand and getting jalapeño business. That means going beyond delivering a sales message and inspiring conversations that revolve around your brand. By sharing unique stories and experiences that are worthy of others sharing, we help create the genuine and organic credibility that can only come from trusted human interaction. We have never let traditional scopes limit the thinking we bring to our clients, but since we have limited space, here are just a few of the services we offer.
We’re impact-driven
Shoes of Prey is a global leader in on-demand customised fashion, and a true leader in the Australian startup space.
Well known for their innovative business model, Shoes of Prey was ready to be known as innovators in the fashion industry and forge relationships with fashion, lifestyle and consumer media to reach their audience. That’s when we came on board, and it’s been an incredible journey since.
One way we have showcased customisation and the endless possibilities of design, style, colour and fabric combinations was through a PR activation that supported a marketing campaign called “Colour”. We identified the personalised style, tastes and colour preferences of key fashion media and influencers, and created a personalised shoe design to inspire the recipients with their colour profile.
Each person received a personalised, monogrammed pair of shoes, alongside complementing nail polish and beauty product. Each gift was beautifully packaged in premium boxes and delivered by hand with personalised cards, explaining the chosen colour and design style for the recipients.
The Colour campaign succeeded in building relationships with fashion media and influencers, educating them about Shoes of Prey and showing them the power of customisation and expressing your style through colour. The influencers responded positively and were impressed with the level of personalisation, which resulted in long-term media leads and future partner opportunities for Shoes of Prey.
Real humans, no bullsh!t, and a strong aversion to ego and buzzwords. We take our work seriously, but not ourselves. We are driven by having an impact on our clients and the world around us.
TO GET GUARANTEED PR PLACEMENTYou will be able to put “As seen on Forbes, GQ, CNN, etc” on your website and social media profiles. This is a huge boost in social proof which can lead to more sales.

We needed a creative way to get Kiwis talking about — and tasting — Halo Top during the colder months to help boost brand awareness in a market crowded with emerging local competitors.

Halo Top

How do you grow brand awareness for a US ice-cream disrupter in New Zealand… in the middle of winter?

We partnered with the quirky and wonderful QT Queenstown hotel to launch New Zealand’s first ice-cream themed hotel room. the Halo Top Ski Lodge. The room came complete with a bespoke Halo Top Room service menu (ice cream nachos, anyone?), a fully stocked Halo Top fridge, branded ski apparel, ice cream themed bathroom amenities, and a whole lot of fun.
The rooms sold out within six hours of going live, and QT’s site traffic sky rocketed. Halo Top received blanket press coverage across New Zealand (like this) and was picked up around the world in consumer, startup and travel press (like this), earning hundreds of millions of impressions. A host of lucky social influencers and consumers also slurped and Insta-shared their way through their stay.

"Not only were we able to craft a premium beverage campaign that embodied our own health values, but we also helped to create bold packaging, POS materials, and a beautiful customer experience from start to finish. Both playful and distinct, PRESS is sure to stand out on the shelf.”
- Parker Reddington
Lead Project Designer
PRESS Premium Alcohol Seltzer
The ask: Studio Seven Consulting was tasked with creating a national, turn-key campaign across nearly all of our service categories to elevate all existing assets and enhance overall brand awareness of PRESS Premium Alcohol Seltzer across all appropriate channels and platforms. This campaign came with tight deadlines and a huge list of deliverables, but was a joy to work on and allowed our team to flex both our creative and project management muscles in order to meet its many challenges along with each milestone on time, and on budget.
The answer: Our next step was to design a full-service campaign that included everything from PR to POS design that helped the brand to stand out amongst other seltzers in a very competitive market, and clearly express its premium nature, benefits, and other unique qualifiers in a way that felt fun and exciting to the predominately female market across the midwest and beyond. The campaign deliverables included various Retail POS, end-cap, and Packaging design, Creative Direction and Delivery of multiple Advertising campaigns (across OOH, Digital, and Video), as well as PR. Social Media, and overall branding & strategy consulting.
The results speak for themself, with PRESS in a top-ten position in their category. In the midst of our campaign Constellation Brands, the largest beer import company in the US, acquired a minority stake in PRESS.

Amy Guittard, Marketing Director, Guittard Chocolate Company

Deborah’s passion for food is the foundation of her dedication. Her background in the culinary industry has given her the insider’s view and understanding of what makes a chef tick … highlighting those talents. She represented Recchiuti Confections when “artisan chocolatiers” in the United States were still following the lead of more established brands like La Maison du Chocolat and helped put this American brand on the map, placing us toe-to-toe with our European counterparts.
Michael and Jacky Recchiuti, founders, Recchiuti Confections

Getting the media interested in tofu is challenging. Using her extensive experience in the food space, Deborah not only guided us in developing a broad message about our brand, but also devised tailored messages for specific media outlets and journalists when we had news of innovations and events.
The consummate professional, Deborah is trusted by journalists to pitch meaningful stories of rising brands.

“In life, it doesn’t matter what you say,
what matters is what people hear.”
– PPW, co-founder of EFG and Ad.Ly
- It is our job to make people hear and understand your message; to believe in your brand, and for this, we activate armies of editors, writers, influencers, celebrities and local social leaders.
We believe that the second most important thing in building a successful brand besides color palettes, style guides, logos, filters, and slogans are content and ultimately, overall messaging.
But simply creating content is just half the story. In order to be effective, content must be consumed by the target audience, it is our job to make people consume, understand and listen to your message, and most importantly believe it to be organic and authentic.
People are not into ads. According to Nielsen’s Global Trust In Advertising report, people trust text ads less than any other content medium, especially on mobile. What’s more, on the list of trusted mediums, editorial content outranked ads on all traditional channels, including TV, radio, billboards, newspapers and magazines.
Bottom line: editorial, informational & entertaining content works best.
Every piece of content is different, with its own purpose, style and message. It is our job to help you craft and disseminate this content and to help drive your messaging to your audience in order to engage with your brand.
We truly believe that brands must interact with their audiences in organic and authentic new ways in order to remain relevant and that every engagement is an opportunity to expand on a positive brand experiences that keeps consumers engaged in their journey and loyalty
CASE STUDY: TECH
TINDER
While launching Tinder, EFG was faced with the challenge of removing the stigma associated with online dating. EFG distinguished Tinder as the revolutionary leader in modern dating applications by introducing the app to media in the consumer, business and tech arenas. EFG also successfully positioned the co-founders, Sean Rad and Justin Mateen, as young entrepreneurs that changed the game in online dating apps in top tier entrepreneur and business trade media outlets. EFG’s efforts resulted in maximizing awareness of the app to media and influencers, ultimately increasing Tinder’s user base by 750% in the first month alone. In 2016, Tinder was named the number one lifestyle app of all time by distinguished tech trade outlet, Mashable.
