There are many ways to activate and promote your brand(s) through the country's top traveling coffee consumer event, and we are open to creative ways you would like to see your company involved.
A YEAR OF CAFFEINE CRAWL CONSISTS OF:
- Live Caffeine Crawl events hosted in metro areas from coast to coast. Generally 11 or 12 events, including a Here & There* Crawl. There's not another specialty coffee event that covers this much of the country.
- We also host a Virtual Caffeine Crawl in late summer. This event is all online and digitally interactive. We select shops and roasters that haven't hosted on a Crawl, plus highlight coffee pros and other industry insight from Crawl veterans.
- Our Recipe Series is a collection of drink recipes created for the home consumer (or barista) in mind to duplicate at home. We have a summer and winter holiday set. Each one highlighting different businesses. Cards are designed in a theme for each set with the intention of being kitchen keepsakes.
- Our coffee collaborations are opportunities to participate in the projects where we work with a roaster on a special release coffee (or chocolate). We will do 3 or 4 of these in '24.
- Our Members Club is a yearlong membership where individuals get tickets to our events, assorted merchandise, and special offerings. Sponsors are always welcome to share product with these members.
- Weekly we gather up positive and educational news from many sources and post it on our What's Happening page. It's a quick tool for shop owners, baristas, and avid home consumers. We allow sponsors to promote their news on here.
- We launched CAFFEINO, a coffee board game in '23. We will have other printed entertainment opportunities in the near future.
*Our Here & There Caffeine Crawl consists of multiple (5 to 7) mini Crawls in different parts of the country on various Saturdays within a month. This helps highlight shops and roasters in smaller markets, and/or places we can't get to financially for a larger event. In 2024, we are planning June and December events.
