Bill Bradshaw, VP of Sales, Federated Group
Private label supplier Federated Group serves its retail clients several food and household brands to offer customers. One of the brands, Life Every Day, has seen a recent boost in attention thanks to one of the company’s senior members.
Bill Bradshaw, vice president of Sales at the company, led a successful marketing initiative to not only interact, but to relate and connect directly with consumers on several social media platforms, including TikTok and Instagram.
On Federated Group’s page, foods are showcased in unique ways that can help consumers get a first-glimpse at the products. The initiative of directly engaging with consumers on social media platforms has proven Federated Group’s Life Every Day brand to be a successful link between consumers, customers and suppliers.
“We have put a vigorous social media marketing plan in place to connect with a worldwide audience,” said Bradshaw. “We encourage consumers to participate and engage in our various platforms. We focus our message on the authenticity that today’s consumers are searching for. We can say that our ‘Life Inspires’ brands have earned enthusiastic acceptance by current customers while attracting new customers as well.”
