A Bawls-y Energy Drink
Written by Kenyatta D. Pious
A young gentleman walked up to the lady in front of me and said, “Would
you care for some BAWLS, miss?” Needless to say she burst
out laughing - - as did most of the people standing in my area. BAWLS
is a new energy drink sweeping across the country. I got wind
of the drink at New York Fashion Week, where the drink was given
out to fashionistas as they entered the various shows or as they
sat and chitchatted about whatever it is fashionistas discuss. The
drink is sweet, but with no after taste. But more importantly,
it does its job! After sitting through countless shows and
feeling like my attention span has relocated to Florida, I needed
a quick pick-me-up and BAWLS energy drink supplied that for me.
I couldn’t help but to wonder what type of shelf life BAWLS
will have. The market is saturated after all. I had a
brief q&a with Sabrina Gonzales, Marketing Director for BAWLS
about the energy drink market and how they plan to position BAWLS
so that it is a success story.
How do you plan to market BAWLS and how is it different from other
energy drinks?
It’s crucial to have a strong, grassroots-like following of
your product when you’re in the saturated energy drink industry.
So many of them look and taste alike, and it’s hard to have
the credibility to survive. BAWLS Guaranexx, thankfully, is one of
the best tasting in the market – it tastes like a light, citrus-infused
cream soda made with natural caffeine from the Amazonian guarana
berry. The caffeine found in a bottle of BAWLS Guaranexx is just
as strong as a cup of coffee and nearly three times stronger than
traditional sodas. Unlike other energy drinks, Guaranexx’s
premium taste is complemented with award-winning, unique glass bottle
packaging that sets it a step above other, tired energy drinks. BAWLS
Guaranexx is a beautiful product that provides the taste, style and
energy that the fashion industry needs. One of my favorite things
about the drink is that is contains to sugar, carbs or calories,
so it’s a guilt-free indulgence!
Why did you decide to sponsor Fashion Week?
We decided to target the fashion industry to reach male and female
consumers who are both style and health conscious – the ideal
Guaranexx drinker. BAWLS Guaranexx is committed to the fashion industry
and our product is enjoyed by models, celebrities, designers and
fashionistas around the country! Our involvement in fashion has led
us to be the Official Energy Drink of Olympus Fashion Week, Sunglass
Hut Miami Swim Shows and Gen Art Fresh Faces in Fashion. Our product
[was] also featured in gift bags at several designer shows during
these events.
