Specialty coffee roasters vs a hashtag list
A hashtag list for specialty coffee roasters is a vocabulary tool. It is not a roster. I still scroll as your client’s customer on a fresh account.
People tag #coffeetok when they want brands to find them. That is a real behavior. It is also why the list looks public. Another shop emailed a version of it last Tuesday.
The person: the client’s customer is US English, 24-38, already bounced off a grocery ‘reserve’ bag and a subscription that tasted like the last one, watches ‘this grocery bag is stale’ and home-grinder videos at 6:30am. They watch stale-grocery-bag, home-grinder, ‘my subscription got boring’, pour-over fails. Example: someone opening a grocery bag with a roast date from last season. The same 6:30am grind face two weekdays.
How I actually use a tag, then ignore it
Hashtag search is cheap and fast. You will learn the words. You will also meet the 500k cafe-hopping creator who will never brew the client’s bag, because that is who buys the tag.
Then I switch to the feed. Fresh account. Real phones. Linger, save, like, comment as if I were them. Once the algorithm is trained I take whoever keeps showing up. Ideally over 50k average views. Below that, $700 a post for 1k views is a money sink.
Like a cafe-interior video and you will leave the 6:30am home grinder. Scout is $1,500/month because some founders will still want the list without becoming a hashtag intern.
When a hashtag is enough
If you are learning that 6:30am grind, stale-bag rage, not cafe interiors for clout is next to stale-grocery-bag, home-grinder, ‘my subscription got boring’, pour-over fails, a tag is enough. If you are about to spend talent money, it is not.
The catalog is cafe-hoppers and kettle unboxings.
