We’re continuing our 4Ps Sales Process, a four-part framework we (Katie Mleziva – Real Food Brands & Clint Matthews -Start Right Foods) created to help food business owners build a sales process that actually works. You can listen to the intro and overview of the process in Ep 153 (linked below).
If you caught the intro episode, you know these 4 Ps of Sales — PLAN, PREP, PITCH, and PERSIST — walk you step-by-step from strategy to execution.
Each “P” builds on the last to help you move from reactive selling to a repeatable, brand-aligned system that drives results based on how you want to build your brand.

- Why a clear understanding of both your ideal consumers and buyers will drive smarter sales planning
- How to start building your list of buyers (without feeling overwhelmed)
- The importance of focusing your time and energy on the right sales channels
- Practical ways to research, connect, and start conversations that lead to opportunity
