Snapple has had one of the most epic branding rollercoasters in American history—from humble beginnings in a Brooklyn health food store to becoming the anti-corporate darling of the '90s... and then nearly collapsing after a multi-billion dollar corporate acquisition gone wrong.
You’ll walk away with sharp insights on:
✅ How Snapple built a cult following through authentic, offbeat branding
✅ Why Quaker Oats’ acquisition failed—and the $1.4 billion lesson in ignoring your audience
✅ The power of being a little weird in a world of mass-produced sameness
✅ How Snapple made one of the greatest comebacks by returning to its roots
