Bright Table was built for brands with taste—and not just the kind you can eat.

After years working inside food, hospitality, and CPG brands—from global names to local legends—I started this consultancy to offer something most founders don’t get: thoughtful, flexible marketing support that actually fits.

I’ve worked with Hershey and Jolly Ranchers. Diageo and Hain Celestial. Alba Botanica and Avalon Organics. Punch Bowl Social, Rosetta Hall, Kiehl’s, Panera—and more than a few pop-ups, soft openings, and food halls along the way. I even got my start writing for 5280 Magazine’s food section.

The common thread? These are people feeding their communities. Often under pressure. Always under-resourced. And rarely with the kind of marketing support built to move with them.

Bright Table exists to fill that gap—with warmth, strategy, and a little spice.

I’m Chelsea Meier—a marketing strategist with a Swiss Army knife skill set, working closely with scrappy, values-driven founders and operators. The kind of people who are smart, kind, results-focused, and doing the real work. The kind of people I want to help grow.

Sometimes that means brand messaging or positioning. Sometimes it’s campaign planning, digital audits, pitch decks, or just making sure your whole team is speaking the same language.

Always, it’s tailored. Thoughtful. Based on results, not hours.

So pull up a seat. Let’s cook something up.
