Bud Light Sales Continue to Decline in US in Wake of Dylan Mulvaney Controversy

[BaghdadBadger] That still doesn't mean they're losing money! [/BaghdadBadger]

And from cnn nonetheless:

Bud Light boycott likely cost Anheuser-Busch InBev over $1 billion in lost sales

$1B in lost revenue CAN NEVER BE REGAINED, regardless of who is the spinmaster.

Has Bud Light survived the boycott? Year after influencer backlash, positive signs emerge

Repercussions of the controversy over Bud Light's partnership with transgender influence Dylan Mulvaney continued in the U.S. with beer sales down during the January-March 2024 period.

Bud Light sales remain flat more than year after the brand faced a conservative boycott from consumers angered over its teaming up with influencer Dylan Mulvaney.

AB InBev, which owns Budweiser and Bud Light, said overall global sales topped $14.5 billion, but sales in the U.S. declined 9.1% during the Jan.-March 2024 period. Sales to retailers were down 13.7%, "primarily due to volume decline of Bud Light," the company said.

I would fire every senior manager who felt this was not catastrophic, AND did not have a plan to regain lost customers.

No, no, no! AB hasn't lost a single dime. I heard it here, so it must be true.


You just don't know how sales works.

Yeah, well I thought I had very good financial knowledge, evidenced by my career, but that one dood post many contrary untruths that made me question my wisdom.

He needs to come back in here, as I have more than a few questions.

It's really very simple. When millions of people stop buying your product, you really haven't lost any money. Because "stocks" or something.


And even if they have lost money - which I'm not saying - at least they are "woke". So, they have that going for them.

I think I now understand, as I have removed all the business knowledge and experience I have acquired in 35+ years.

So, business is NEVER about sales or profits, whether you increase either is not important, what matters is that you get the most 'likes' on the lbghtwxyz sites, and your senior managers can get to san fran for all their street parades.

WTF was I thinking?!?!?

I'm happy that I could help.

I honestly hope they go broke over this shit. Lessons must be learned the hard way for this woke bullshit.

Too big to fail, but the ceo and others in senior management need to resign and give back their last 24 months of pay, as they choose this strategy, and then failed to admit it was an utter shitstorm.

The problem is it's considered the cost of pushing the agenda. Look at how many projects Disney lost their ass on, only to come right back with even worse shit.

Her LinkedIn profile says her career at AB ended Nov ‘23. Nothing listed after that.

She's probably retreated to a "safe space"

The Budweiser brand is permanently scarred, because they can't apologize for what they did. They just can't.

What Inbev SHOULD do, is put A-B up for sale, and it will be a fire sale. A daring American buyer could buy it, slash and burn through the C-Suite, H.R., and middle management, going on a literal witch hunt against leftists.

Then, the ad campaign writes itself. Hey America, we took this once venerated company back from foreign hands, publicly rid it of people who don't like traditional America, and we're now going to simply focus on brewing beer here in America, and we're the only mass market brand actually still owned by Americans.

Then I'd bring back Spuds McKenzie, except it will be Spud's great, great, great granddog, and we can have all the ad fodder we want, explaining what Spud's family has been up to, while seeing that Spuds VI is a chip off the old block, partying with bikini clad, actually female hotties. Tie in The Spud's family hanging out with the Clydesdales, and expand the characters to include the Dalmations that hang out with the Clydesdales.
