Tea is the most versatile, fastest growing beverage category in the world... So why are projections of fast growth by large retail chains not being met?
What if the foot traffic that underpins the billions invested in retail beverage real estate quits walking past your store? The trend first became evident over the holiday season during the recession in North America. It has accelerated despite the recovery.
New truths:
-- Convenience is now essential for beverage retail success on-trade and off.
-- Creating a retail destination is now more important than location alone.
-- Distribution today is less about logistics and more about value.
“The jury is still out on the right tea bar or tea room concept,” explains Jurgen Link, a pioneer who founded Special Teas, Inc. in 1996. His company was later acquired by Teavana.
“The whole bar/tearoom channel is still in flux because no one has yet discovered a concept that is truly scalable — nobody, anywhere. That does not mean it is not possible,” he said, adding that “Once the concept is discovered there will be another big surge in growth.”
Dan Bolton edits STiR coffee and tea, the weekly World Tea News and is the founder of Tea Journey, a digital consumer magazine for tea lovers. Dan has worked as an editor, publisher and newspaper reporter the past 40 years. He is the former editor and publisher of Tea Magazine and former editor-in-chief of Specialty Coffee Retailer in San Francisco. He is also a leading retail beverage and content marketing consultant who speaks frequently at conferences around the globe.

Customers don't get sold anything; they buy what they want. The smart business builds the best customer service program by partnering with their customers and giving them what they need. It is built on a parable about my grandfather. It takes about 45 minutes; is fun and will give you some ideas for building customer partnerships.
WELCOME TO THE FRONTLINE SUMMER 2013
Our latest issue of Frontline Thinking continues the conversation on all that is local. From the challenges faced by St John Ambulance in the charity sector, to the daily war raging on our high streets over coffee. The conversation is wide open so have a read and let us know what you think?
We are Acuity. Independent Creative Agency and Frontline Marketeers, we help the likes of Citroën, Peugeot, Continental Tyres, St John Ambulance and UK Insurance sell more through their franchise network or sales outlets. We deliver brand consistency at a local level, while creating intelligent campaigns precisely tuned to increase sales, and keep customers coming back for more. We make things happen.
We don’t hang about either. We’re faff-free, quick, and we don’t ever compromise on creativity.
The way we work with clients is a bit different too. There’s no ‘us and them.’ Instead, it’s more of a continuous loop – which works brilliantly.
Ask Citroën, they’ve been relying on us for 14 years.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Elizabeth Buie - Older adults: Are we really designing for our future selves?
Cafe slide show bus strat
1. The Problem The problem in the market today is that the major coffee company's are so large and competitive, that the focus has shifted from the customer and gone to making a profit. The demand for specialty coffee is ever growing and I want to fill that demand and also provide an unforgettable customer experience. I talked to a customer that felt like just another face, another five dollar bill, another cup of old coffee. They felt ignored and average, like they were nothing special and that the goal was just to get their money. I want to remove this expectation from the customers eyes and create a truly unique experience for each individual that comes into my cafe.
