Navigating The Fustercluck #28 Compliment People Behind Their Back The company grapevine doesn’t need to yield sour grapes. Use it to spread the news, especially when it’s good news. And particularly, when it's about someone else. It lets your team know that that individual is doing well. And when it gets back to that person, it will most definitely be appreciated. And they'll be motivated to create a virtuous circle that spread even more good news. #RemixtheWorld #compliments #teamwork #behindtheirback #cheerleading #remixtheworld

Friend: "Hey Paddy - I saw Lind & Lime on Sunday Brunch" Me: "No, you didn't, someone has knocked off our bottle." Friend: "But...I did, though I didn't know you did tequila." Me: "We don't, the bottle has been copied." Friend: "Surely nobody would do something so blatant?" Me: "I admire your faith in the integrity of the business community." Friend: "Presumably it must be a tiny company that's never seen you?" Me: "No, it was BrewDog. They're very aware of us." Friend: "This will get fixed by law and stuff, right?" Me: "I admire your faith in the administration of justice."
First I thought Lind & Lime Gin was on TV! Then I realised it wasn't Lind & Lime. It's a knock-off. Finally, I discovered it's a tequila bottled by a fellow Scottish company called BrewDog. And that really ruined my weekend. I know we are all inspired to some extent by other brands, but this crosses that line with two middle fingers waving merrily in the air. They knew we'd notice, but simply don't care because they're a massive company and we're not. The Scottish drinks industry is an incredibly friendly, collaborate space. We all have many other challenges to deal with and we shouldn't be doing this to each other. #gin #tequila #scotland #brewdog

Working with businesses to ensure that marketing efforts are aligned with, and support, achieving overall business goals
We see this with Aldi and Lidl, putting out cheaper products that look remarkably like the Waitrose or Tesco equivalent. This is seen as all is fair in love and war, and a bit of a joke. However, when the big companies do it to the little ones they are putting livelihoods in danger. Brewdog are using their position in the market to knock off niche products. Hopefully, it will backfire on them. Also, #SundayBrunch on #Channel4 need to be aware that they are (inadvertently?) promoting knock-off products. They would never promote knock-off #Gucci or #Armani, would they?
