Welcome to another episode of The Last Drop – where business ideas flow as smoothly as the drinks we pour! 🍹 In this episode, Jake and Dave are joined by special guest Phil to create and tear apart a bold new concept: “The Soundry” – a multi-location boutique music store fused with a lounge, bar, and live music venue. From gear testing in private recording booths to live performances where the instruments on stage go on sale (at a discount!), we’re building a hybrid business that reinvents the music retail experience. Along the way, we dive into: Why Guitar Center’s sterile vibe needs an upgrade. How to integrate e-commerce, in-store experiences, and live events into one killer brand. The genius of “No Starving Artists” – a low-cost meal that brings in musicians and builds community. Marketing hooks like open mic battles, QR-code-driven instant gear purchases, and festival tie-ins. Creating a space that’s not just a store or venue – but a music culture hub. Of course, no episode of The Last Drop is complete without drinks! This week, we’re sipping on Kuleana Rum, an all-organic Hawaiian sugarcane rum that’s smooth enough to enjoy straight – but perfect for mixing, too. If you love big ideas, creative business building, and a good pour, you’ll want to stay until the end.
