Things I can advise on: 
- how to launch a successful beverage company
- e-commerce best practices
- bootstrapping vs fundraising your startup
- how to differentiate yourself from competitors in the market
- distribution channels for your product

I enjoy nothing more than helping someone bring an idea to market, by encouraging them to take action and disrupt conventional wisdom. I hope to meet and advise likeminded entrepreneurs who can “see what others can’t… and do what others won’t”.
