Chlorophyll Water’s Plant-Powered Super-Beverage Finds Retail Success with RangeMe

Today’s wellness-oriented consumer is very conscious about the ingredients they put into and onto their bodies. They are just as conscious about the health of the environment. Because of this, they seek products with clean labels and sustainable practices, and if these products provide additional health benefits, all the better.

Matt Levine, a health aficionado who has operated plant-based, health-conscious restaurants in New York City for two decades, founded Chlorophyll Water with just this in mind after discovering the energizing benefits of liquid chlorophyll.

Product Launch Basics & The ‘POM Principle’

Inventing something is just the beginning. Getting your product to market, building operational systems, and finding customers who will consistently buy your product is what needs to happen next. Over the past 30 years, I’ve worked with thousands of products and inventors. Many of them get stuck in that first phase. Some remain inventors by choice, creating widget after widget and successfully selling them to companies that do the rest. A very small percentage either do the rest themselves or hire the right people to build out a spark of an idea into something that is needed by a customer—and eventually loved by a customer.

After launching products ranging from grocery store ice cream product extensions for Mrs. Fields Cookies to the first blue-labeled bubbly for champagne Mumm and setting up Think Thin nutrition bars to sell to Glanbia Nutrition Group for a whopping $ 217 million, I’ve seen a lot.

Most of all, I’ve worked with many one-person companies – inventors who created bras that eliminate visible bra lines, basketball shoes that prevent ankle sprains, and wrinkle-releasing beauty serums that were born in kitchen sinks.

Food Scientist-Turned-Entrepreneur Sees Retail Wins With ‘Magic Beans’

8 Track Foods hits many of the hot buttons that excite retail buyers. It’s a woman-owned brand. Its products are locally-grown, organic, and have a minimal impact on the environment – in fact, they make the environment better (we’ll get to that shortly). Plus, with all of the buzz about the importance of our microbiomes for health, you will find few foods that are better for the gut.

The Chicago-based brand sells beans that are grown on U.S. farms and packaged in recyclable steel cans. Call them “magic beans,” if you will, because buyers from retailers like Whole Foods Market, Meijer, Food Lion and independent grocers have been eagerly scooping them up after connecting with Founder Maggie Sadowsky via RangeMe and ECRM, and can now be found in more than 2,000 stores nationwide (watch my full video interview with Maggie below!). 

From food scientist to entrepreneur

For someone marketing simple, single-ingredient products, you’d be surprised to learn that Maggie’s background is in food science. Her career began with product development at Morningstar Farms, creating products like plant-based chicken nuggets and Buffalo Chicken wings. This experience fueled her passion for natural and plant-based foods, leading her to develop hundreds of products …
