Bio

I'm an executive-level consumer packaged goods (CPG) and fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) industry strategist with an emphasis on the emerging and intersecting categories of functional (and/or better for you) food, beverage, nutritional supplements, beauty, and personal care. For the last 8 years, I've successfully built J. Schall Consulting, an Austin, TX boutique management consulting firm, into a world-renowned leader in growth strategies for functional CPG brands that range from pre-launch to portfolio companies earning north of $1 billion in yearly revenue. I accredit much of this success to my intensely dynamic fascination of the everchanging consumer behaviors that surround purchasing a variety of CPG products. This has allowed be to ''see around the corner'' and become a firebrand throughout the full entrepreneurial ideation to consumerization cycle with the ultimate goal of creating powerfully disruptive, billion-dollar lifestyle brands. 🔹 Specialties 🔹 ▪️ Strategic Brand Development that Performs Across Channels ▪️ Direct to Consumer and Digital Marketplaces, such as Amazon and Walmart ▪️ Product Lifecycle Management ▪️ Product Development and Portfolio Management ▪️ Consumer Insights from Qualitative and Quantitative Data Mining ▪️ Pricing and Promotional Strategy that Allows For Multi-Channel Expansion ▪️ Operational Process Efficiency Analysis with Focus on Lean Startup Principles ▪️ Corporate Finance and Capital Allocation (including M&A) ▪️ Strategic Risk Management and Complexity Reduction ▪️ Entrepreneur Mentorship and Performance Coaching ▪️ Organizational Design 🔹 Contact Information 🔹 ▪️ Website = www.jschallconsulting.com ▪️ Email = josh@jschallconsulting.com ▪️ YouTube = www.youtube.com/c/joshuaschall ▪️ Medium = www.medium.com/@joshuaschall ▪️ Twitter = www.twitter.com/joshua_schall ▪️ Facebook = www.facebook.com/jschallconsulting
