Transforming Futures: the Brooklyn Program Facilitator's Manual, Second Edition; updates the First Edition manual for the award-winning Brooklyn Program, a new, non-confrontational approach to substance use treatment. In its pages you will be led step-by-step through the procedures for recreating the program. You will discover the logic that informs the procedures and clear descriptions of the tools from Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) that make it work. The Brooklyn Program was used for seven years by the United States Probation Department in Brooklyn, New York as a major treatment modality for substance use disorders. Over that period, hundreds of clients were treated who achieved high program attendance, significant one year abstinence rates and significant levels of personal growth. This new edition adds additional introductory materials on the nature of addiction, more complete scripts and a complete index.

This book seeks to inform people interested in selling perishable (frozen or refrigerated) foods via the direct-to-consumer (DTC) channel how the process works. This book will not make you an expert from the supply chain to marketing to metrics, but it will provide a solid foundation for how this industry works. There are many reasons why companies sell DTC. When one considers the alternatives, there are circumstances in which it is the only sales channel that makes sense. These reasons include the following: Direct interaction with consumers-no middleman. Channel that most benefits the food producer from repeat (subscription) sales. Lowest cost of entry. Fastest go to market option. Least number of decision makers in the sales process. No need for shelf space at a retailer. No need for a distributor and/or broker to take on the product. No need for a sales force to visit large clients. Inexpensive means of product testing. The DTC channel is tailor-made for conducting consumer acceptance testing of new products. Lower volume/higher margin sales channel. If a business requires high volume to achieve lower costs, DTC may not be an appropriate primary channel. Works well with other channels. A company can add DTC sales to an existing distributor to retailer sales program. Retailers have limited shelf space. They will cap the number of SKUs they accept for resale or on their menu. There is no similar restriction on SKUs in the DTC environment. DTC sales can be hugely scalable. The degree of scalability is a function of multiple factors as discussed throughout the supply chain sections of this book. The DTC sales channel is tailor-made for foods unavailable through local markets. These products tend to be unique and appeal to a limited audience. Examples include super-premium meats (wagyu beef), Eastern European frozen meals, and foods with short shelf lives. This book seeks to address the need for information about this growing sales and distribution channel from people who are either in the food business or want to enter the food business. The DTC channel can serve as a primary or secondary sales channel for food producers. This book seeks to speak to the following target markets: Food start-up executives. Management of young, growing food companies seeking to either expand in the DTC space or enter the DTC space. Overseas companies looking to enter the US market. Growing CPG companies looking to use the DTC channel for product testing, consumer market research, product line extensions, and branding purposes. Direct to restaurant/retailer (DTR) businesses looking to diversify their distribution channels. When the pandemic forced many restaurants to close, demand for certain DTC services exceeded capacity driven, in part, by DTR companies seeking places to sell their perishable products. This book strives to provide information about the many facets of selling and distributing perishable food via the DTC channel. Specific items addressed herein include the following: An understanding of DTC supply chain basics. No book can address every question. But we expect whatever questions remain will source from a higher level. Why frozen and fresh foods provided through the DTC channel can require different supply chains. A firm grasp of the principal supply chain components. DTC marketing. How it works. Choices in marketing. Selling through Amazon and other third-party sites. The benefits of a multi-channel strategy. If your company is considering the direct-to-consumer channel for your frozen or refrigerated product for the first time, this book is the primer you will want to read.
