We're delighted to have as our guest for this episode Tim Deubner, a produce and floral manager for Town & Country Supermarket. He’s been in produce for more than a decade now and is dedicated to making his career in the industry and continuing to advance through the ranks. He’s probably one of the best out there at using LinkedIn to share his success stories, explain his thought process in his work, and be candid about his ambition to keep growing in this industry. In this conversation, he visits with The Produce Retail Podcast host Ashley Nickle about how he practices thinking like a produce director; how he found and engages with mentors throughout the industry; how he has broadened his skillset since moving from a corporate store to an independent store; how he built a cut-fruit program for his store; how he engages customers both in the store and online; why and how he shares about his work via LinkedIn; how he approaches opportunity buys; which metrics he watches most closely; how he's grown in the three years since he last appeared on the podcast; and more! Hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did, and thanks for listening!
