How customers can help create new flavor profiles with Brian Tate of Oats Overnight

Innovation products are often a risky move for food & beverage brands. Even with substantial market testing and research, your core customers may still not be receptive to new flavor profiles. But what if you could use your most dedicated customers to help beta-test new products? This week on Beyond the Shelf, we spoke with the Founder & CEO of Oats Overnight, Brian Tate. Brian shared with us how Oats Overnight utilizes a subscription service to get feedback on new flavor profiles from their core customers. With over 20,000 people signed up for their monthly subscription service, and an internal collaborative work model, Oats Overnight is able to get direct feedback from those who love and support the brand.
