Member Memo - March 10, 2020

Member + Partner Relations

Big office news, we have hired Emily Luna to be the "go-to" contact for our members and community partners. Emily will be coming on board tomorrow. Her goal will be to connect with all of our current Wine Road members and reach out to other wineries in the area. She will also be the point person for our partners within the community, to help us be the best possible partner. The more you know about what Wine Road does, the more you will want to be involved. If you want to invite Emily to visit your property, she can be reached at Emily@WineRoad.com

Your Community...who are your people?

I had sent out this inquiry last Friday, wanting to connect our wineries that have a strong connection to communities of people (bikers, gardeners, bakers etc.) We are looking for a connection that is obvious via your label, the events you support, classes you offer etc. Please download this link for more details.

Once we have created a list of strong connections to various "communities" we will add it to our website, share on social, include in a press release etc.

Sharing Great Content...

Every month Wine Road produces great content for you to share. Multiple blog posts, podcasts, and a newsletter, not to mention all the content on our website.

To help you share, we are providing you with a tool kit. We will include multiple posts you can choose from for sharing on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or to include in your newsletters. You can, of course, edit them to suit your needs, but they can serve an inspiration if you're not sure what to share.

This is the link to the content you could share in March.
