Community guidelines

How we keep it valuable

Every applicant agrees to these before joining. Breaking them may lead to removal.

1.  Who belongs here
The CPGX Slack is for founders and leaders of CPG brands that are selling in retail or have a clear path to retail within 12 months. It is a brands-only space.
2.  Give more than you take
Answer questions, share what has worked and open doors when you can. The community stays valuable because every member contributes.
3.  What stays in the room
Numbers, retailer details and challenges shared here are confidential. Don't repost, screenshot or share them outside the Slack without the member's permission.
4.  No selling or soliciting
Don't pitch products or services, send unsolicited DMs or recruit for other groups. If someone asks for a recommendation, you're welcome to share what has worked for you.
5.  Respect introductions
When a member makes an introduction, respond promptly and close the loop. Always ask before using someone's name to open a door.
6.  Stay active
Attend at least half of CPGX events and check in regularly. Inactive members may be moved off the Slack so it stays valuable for everyone.
7.  Removal
The CPGX team may remove any member who breaks these guidelines or no longer meets the five standards. When possible, we'll reach out first to talk it through. Removed members can reapply after six months.
