The first local business that comes to mind for me is a local, fresh market called "Argus Farm Stop" in Ann Arbor. They emphasize selling fresh, organic, and nutritious products, making them a great fit for a drink like Saint James. Other bigger businesses in Ann Arbor that would be a great fit to sell Saint James include Trader Joe's and Whole Foods because they're known for having organic and specialty beverages as well as having in-store samples. These are also a few of the most popular stores here that students shop at, so Saint James would have great visibility at these locations.

As sisterhood chair of alpha Kappa Delta Phi, I've planned many events this past semester including a picnic, retreat, and "Secret Valentine" gift exchange, all of which could've been elevated with a healthy, hydrating, and delicious drink such as Saint James. Furthermore, as Public Relations chair of my Neuroscience Student Association, I'd be eager to incorporate Saint James into our events (social and professional) that often include food and refreshments. I've also collaborated with the marketing team at Hub William (apartment complex I'm living in this upcoming school year), and they're consistently open to partnerships, making them a great opportunity to further promote and increase visibility for Saint James.

Apart from bringing Saint James tea/merch to events from orgs I'm a part of, I'd be eager to host specific things promoting Saint James, such as tailgates, especially during football season because it's hot and there's tons of people. Another specific promotion idea I have is setting up a table near the central area of our campus when it's hot and sunny out and having people play mini games to win merch and giving them a free drink. I would strongly encourage them to post the pop-up on their social media and inspire others to come.
