The Niche Meat Processor Assistance Network, the Good Meat Project and Kitchen Table Consultants present the Western Meat School Business Accelerator Program, a seven-month, peer-to-peer learning experience for farmers, ranchers and meat brands that are scaling their production and sales with the intent to reach multi-million dollar goals while producing high-quality local and regional meat products.

This immersive online small-group business accelerator is designed to help producers solve the most challenging problems when scaling their meat business. The curriculum offers high-touch, comprehensive experiential classes focused on organizing financial recordkeeping systems that help deepen knowledge, improve profit potential and understand demand forecasting. This course also gives participants step-by-step instruction on how to “level up” marketing and branding initiatives that connect with target customers, connect marketing initiatives to sales and build a brand that resonates with diverse consumers in multiple sales channels. Another integral feature of this program is that each participant will be paired with their own business coach and marketing coach for 10 hours of one-on-one consulting.
