I just got news that sent my taste buds into spasms of delight. No Fish! Go Fish! is looking into bringing their soup to supermarket shelves. Mmm… Soup of the Gods! The NF!GF! cart was one of the joys of working in downtown Portland. John dishes up terribly yummy and rather healthy (chocolate caramel no fish! aside) lunch. Making my mouth water at the thought of it.
They make a couple of special edition soups that I would kill to have the recipe for, or at least have a regular supply of. One is their Raspberry-Blackberry soup, and the other is their Thanksgiving stuffing soup. Mmm… heaven in a bowl.
Anyway, here’s the official announcement from No Fish! Go Fish! Can you help them get their soup to the shelves and make me a happier camper?
(Cue Twilight Zone music) Dee dee dee dee. Dee dee dee dee. Picture if you will… a company. An adorable company. Cuddly. Owned and operated by young Parker Stevenson and Shaun Cassidy types with lots of hair. Cut. Everybody take 5. Rewrite. Action. Owned and operated by older Buck Henry and Bea Arthur types. CUT! Conference room NOW! Here’s the plot. Simple. Cute soup company secretly the subject of government radiation tests grows to gargantuan size. Later, company is absorbed by vast intergalactic gaseous entity called Campbellians in a bid for superiority over their sworn enemy the Progressans.
Roll credits.
Sound far-fetched? Well, maybe it’s not. And here’s where YOU come in… You are our GREATEST ASSET. Stop blushing. It’s TRUE! You are the biggest bunch of lovable soup guzzling home town heroes any team could HOPE for. And WE NEED YOU! John and I are putting together a team of ALL STARS to put SOUP OF THE GODS! in a SUPERMARKET NEAR YOU!! These things take time and $$$.
But with the right team we can do it. We’re looking for an experienced marketer / distributor familiar with taking a product from concept to store shelf. If you have this type experience or know someone who has please call Sean at 503-235-5378 or email me at sean -at- nofishgofish.com. Don’t sell yourself short! Portland is a small town and we’re all only 2 degrees separated from Phil Knight. LET’S JUST DO IT!
The joy of close-knit Portland. Do you know someone who can help them make their dream come true? Give them a call.
I’m dreaming of the day I can pick up No Fish! Go Fish! soup from the store so I can have their soup for lunch again. If you can convince them to bring their sandwiches to the freezer section, too, all the better.
