Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Flops Or Future Hits? Rethinking Failed CPG Products.
Q: Can you tell us a little bit about Belay and what your role is and the kinds of solutions that Belay gives to CPG brands and founders?
Matt Lin explains that his role is as an inventory accounting manager within Belay, focusing on connecting a brand's sales and marketplace activity to inventory management and financial systems, offering outsourced accounting services from bookkeeping to CFO-level support, with a strong emphasis on inventory clarity for decision making.
Khloud Has Khloé, But Community Builds The Brand
Q: What were the key turning points that enabled Khloud to move from launch to national distribution?
Strong initial relationships, especially with Starbucks, helped secure a national footprint quickly; a clear product advantage (protein content and taste) combined with a compelling brand story and celebrity alignment accelerated acceptance. A disciplined expansion plan focused on a few major channels and then broader distribution kept growth manageable.
Your 'Crazy' Idea Could Be Worth $1 Billion. Proda Is Up Next.
Q: What makes Proda different from existing protein beverages in the market?
Proda focuses on a complete protein solution with all nine essential amino acids, masking protein flavor to deliver a craveable, refreshing beverage rather than a traditional nutrition-first product.
Your 'Crazy' Idea Could Be Worth $1 Billion. Proda Is Up Next.
Q: Why choose soda as the delivery format for a protein-focused product, especially for your grandmother?
The founders explain that soda is loved for its taste and refreshing experience, making nutrition more approachable; a clear protein is achieved without the chalky aftertaste, targeting a broad audience and emphasizing everyday enjoyment.
From $7K To 10,000 Stores. The Protein Pints Playbook.
Q: How did you turn a small initial investment into a national-scale business so quickly?
We combined relentless hands-on product development, strategic sampling across universities, athletic events, and retailers, plus a strong protein-forward positioning that clearly signals the product type. Early wins in college pitch competitions and leveraging those networks helped us raise capital and prove traction to retailers.
