Slowly but surely, live events are returning. Our team was ecstatic to attend the recent industry expo in Las Vegas last month. Anytime we get to share the #FoodGiftLove is a thrill for us! We love to watch as they savor our sweet and salty snacks while their eyes light up and listen to the sighs of delight as they take in the tasty treats. It’s always an experience for us, along with our customers. For years, our distributor partners have seen similar success. Read on for a few recent case studies showing the power of gourmet treats at tradeshow and other exhibitor-type events:

Few foods encapsulate the language of love the way that chocolate does—every kind of love. Join me on a journey as we walk through how chocolate suits each of them!

When it comes to setting goals, whether for work, personal, or other, psychology plays a significant role in the success of reaching goals. Goals play a part in how we see ourselves and they also help to shape who we are and who we intend to be. Both professionally and independently, psychologists and mental health professionals associate goal setting with a higher sense of self-worth. Think of the last time you set a goal and reached it. How did you feel afterward? Happy, proud, excited, and fortunate may be some adjectives that come to mind. When setting goals of any caliber, be sure to set specific, clear, defined, and attainable standards for yourself or your team otherwise known as SMART goals. This method was designed as a guide for how to set realistic goals and have a successful outcome. SMART is the acronym for setting specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound goals.
