Sharing the brand’s news

Have you ever taken a picture, showed it to someone and said, “If only you were there for the real thing”?

I feel your pain.stucky

A photo, while it “paints a thousand words,” can sometimes pale in comparison to the actual experience.

You see, when it comes to one of my jobs here at CAB, I’m often the one left staring at a picture, exclaiming, “I wish I had been there!”

I’m sure you already know about the American Angus Association’s Angus Journal, but did you know about Brand News? Inside each monthly edition of the Journal, I get to share with readers what the  Certified Angus Beef ® brand has been up to for the last 30 days.

ashleyBecause if you’ve never heard someone say CAB is diverse, allow me to be the first to tell you. Our staff alone consists of culinary masters, event planners, writers, designers and even a meat scientist or two. Those and many others work with partners around the world and in your backyard to share the brand and the quality message. There are ranchers and chefs, radio DJs and meat cutters, television personalities, food bloggers, and plenty of black cattle.

They’re all on common ground in this section, a concise, one-stop shop to get you caught up on everything CAB.

Be sure to check out the next edition of Brand News in the May edition of the Angus Journal or find past issues here.

Thanks for allowing me to tell your story,

Laura
