What is a release marketing & sales plan?

Glad you asked! Your Release Marketing & Sales Plan is your detailed roadmap for each release or wine club run you do. Instead of trying to remember how you did it last time or simply doing what everyone else does, your plan is designed to make your release as successful as possible! We’re not going to simply send one email telling your mailing list that the release is open and maybe do an Instagram post.

Your plan will be a detailed, step-by-step guide to follow to maximize your sales potential!

Will I need to change or upgrade my software to implement my release marketing plan?

No. The plan is designed to integrate with your current software suite. Unless you’re using outdated/ineffective software, keep using what you’re using. We can certainly make recommendations of what is the best software to use for your company if you’d like.

Do I have to use every piece of the release plan?

You don’t have to… A car also doesn’t need four wheels to drive; it certainly makes getting to your destination a lot easier and safer.

Is this just for allocation releases, or does it work for wine clubs too?

Yes! We’ll work with you on whatever type of release you’re launching. Traditional mailing list allocations, general open-cart mailing list releases, or classic wine club runs.

Will you set up my release and manage it until it’s closed?

Yes! From creating the entire plan for your release, setting it all up in your existing software, launching, providing email customer service support, closing the release, and providing you with a post-release analysis report. Then we celebrate with Champagne!

What wineries have you worked with?

Chappy, our founder, has directed private client sales and hospitality at Hirsch Vineyards, ran sales and marketing at Joseph Jewell wines, launched luxury brand, Jewell, and advised countless other wineries.
