The COVID-19 pandemic forever changed how the CPG industry does business. Where we used to do primarily in-person events and meetings, much of our industry has now pivoted to include both virtual and in-person events. In this week’s episode 205 of the Food Biz Wiz podcast, I sit down with Sarah Davidson, the Executive Vice President of ECRM, the parent company of RangeMe, to talk about how they connect buyers and producers through their curated buyer meeting events.   When you listen in, you’ll hear all about…   How ECRM pivoted with the COVID-19 crisis to include virtual events and why they offer both now What their sessions look like and all that their team does to ensure that meetings are valuable for producers and buyers Why their events are different from trade shows Some of the top things that buyers have been looking for in their events   Sarah has been in the CPG industry for 18 years, so tune in to hear her experience in creating valuable buyer meetings and events.
