Darron and Eliana Burke
Burke Brands, LLC

People who set a good example of the American Dream, are Mentors for me.

The story I want to tell about Darron and Eliana has to do with a commitment to quality + customer service, and KNOWING THE CUSTOMER'S CUSTOMER through field work. It is essential to making successful proposals with AUTHORITY.  [Readers of this profile will find these strategies in sections of SFBDG's STUDIO in COMPETING EFFECTIVELY and AUTHORITY INTELLIGENCE.]

For example, to sell into major retailer who offer high volume and high velocity of product movement, Darron and Eliana requested and received authorization to do sampling in stores across America.  They had confidence in their product. They knew the customer's customer (the public) would prefer their coffee. They got in their car and traveled throughout the United States, even driving to Alaska, to meet the public and sample their coffee in stores.

You have to admire that!

Another quality to admire is Darron's sense of marketing and the investment he has made to create a high quality video production company to provide marketing and video production support for his company and his customers.

Innovation is another quality that make Darron and Eliana worthy mentors. In recent years, the company has created major breakthroughs in new high volume buyers of roast to order brands. It is confidential, but I am aware of the volume that is being driven by new strategies, and it is a powerful story.

Darron and Eliana are both bold and not afraid of BIG IDEAS.  They have taken the risks of expansion into new countries and are global.  They have created innovative products like Infused Coffee.

Finally, Darron and Eliana are grateful and generous people who have been supportive to others through Impact Investing.

Once again, there is much to admire in their community minded leadership...the kind that consultant and author PETER DRUCKER advocated as corporate responsibility.
