A Journey Crafted with Passion
Hello and thank you for visiting High Growth Brands! I'm Marlene Steiner, the owner and principal consultant. With a profound love for the world of all adult beverages, including non-alcoholic and traditional wine and spirits, I've spent over 20+ years honing my expertise in marketing and brand strategy consulting, specializing in brand-building for wine, spirits, and specialty concepts.
One of the defining moments in my journey was co-owning a small production boutique winery for nearly a decade in the Pacific Northwest, allowing me to truly understand the intricacies of the industry from the inside out. Since then, I’ve been building brands and establishing categories my entire career.
