What if nobody cares about your brand as much as you do? It’s an uncomfortable question. It’s also where better marketing starts. Following the category’s “best practices” might make you look like everyone else. Earning attention takes a reason for people to notice, remember, and come back. Our President, Ken Phox, MBA, is joining the “Marketing with Purpose” panel at the State Forty Eight Foundation's Entrepreneur Speaker Series to talk about what happens when an independent brand treats creativity as a business strategy. Brand storytelling. Relationships. Sales. And a few rules worth questioning. Arizona entrepreneurs, bring your big ideas and your hard questions. The most interesting ideas rarely come from following instructions. 📅 September 26 | 9AM - 3PM 📍 The Duce 🎟️ Free to attend Get your free ticket at sfef-speakerseries.org.

About us
The name Corrido comes from the poetic ballads sung by smugglers who risked everything to peddle tequila in prohibition-era border regions. Many of these early corridos celebrated these border bandits and folk heroes—telling tales of triumph and tragedies along trails and around campfires. Inspired by their songs, Tequila Corrido was founded to create an all-natural, handcrafted tequila of the future by honoring the spirits of the past. With every harvest, we pay homage to the tequila-making traditions and stories behind its evolution and weave their corridos into each expression.

You can have great tequila and no one knows. You can have great marketing and nothing worth drinking. Neither works. 17 advertising awards later (10 Gold 🥇 3 Silver 🥈 4 Bronze 🥉), we’re proud to be building both at the same time. Because a real brand doesn’t choose between product and story. It earns both.
People think going brand side is where creativity goes to die. I get it. I was one of those people. You trade brainstorms for operations. Ideas for logistics. Creative for compliance. And if you’re not careful… the work starts to reflect that. Safe. Predictable. Boring. But it doesn’t have to. We won 17 Addys from AAF Phoenix - Phoenix Ad Club 10 Gold 🥇 3 Silver 🥈 4 Bronze 🥉 All for this 'lil tequila company. Move fast. Trust people. Make things worth sharing. Simple. Not easy. I started my career on the agency side, chasing ideas, deadlines, and the hope that maybe… just maybe… something would win. There’s a weird moment when you win your first award. You’re proud… then you realize it’s not actually yours. It belongs to the agency. It lives on a shelf. A shiny prop for future pitches. When we won last week, the awards didn’t go to a shelf. They went home with the builders, actors, songwriters, editors, directors, illustrators, designers, and writers. Because the idea is the work. And the people are the reason it exists. What a wild ride these last two years have been. Grateful for the people who show up when I need them most. The ones who run with a crazy idea. The ones who make it better. And the ones patient enough to let me learn as I go. Grateful for all of it. 2026… we’re doubling down. Hope you're ready.
