Background
PowerUp Productions, a dynamic video production company specializes in creating compelling visual content for a diverse range of clients. As they prepared to launch their new food and beverage-focused video production service, NOSH, they faced several challenges in understanding the niche market and effectively promoting their new venture. The business owner attended an InUnison “Meet the Mentor” session, which sparked a transformative journey for the company.
The Challenge
Launching a new product in a specialized market segment required PowerUp Productions to gain deep insights into the food and beverage industry, establish strategic partnerships, and develop a targeted marketing strategy. The business owner recognized the need for expert guidance to navigate these complexities and achieve a successful launch.

During a “Meet the Mentor” session with InUnison, the business owner connected with Sarah Nicholas, Owner of a mentor from Ladles & Linens Kitchen Shoppe, an experienced local business leader with a deep understanding of the food and beverage market. Impressed by the mentor’s expertise and enthusiasm, the business owner decided to upgrade to InUnison’s premium membership, which provided access to a more personalized and intensive mentorship program.
The mentorship kicked off immediately and the mentor provided practical advice, shared industry insights, and guided PowerUp Productions through a key industry trade show event, providing meaningful introductions and connections. Additionally, the mentor’s commitment went above and beyond traditional mentorship; she organized a focus group to help the mentee refine their ideas and gather valuable feedback from potential clients.
