Winery Email Marketing
is More Important Than Ever Before!
Winery Email Marketing
is More Important Than Ever Before!
Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) in the wine industry is by no means a new concept as the model of building a direct, close relationship between winery and consumer is the basis of growing tasting room sales.
Due to the long term effects of COVID-19 and with many wine regions currently struggling with lower tourism numbers, DTC Email Marketing has become more important than ever. Also, with an average return rate of $38 for every $1 spent, email marketing really is worth the investment to grow your wine sales.
Now that all sounds great, but unless you know how to craft a solid email marketing strategy for your wine brand, you won’t experience really successful results.
That’s why we created the Winery Email Marketing Mastery Workshop.
Here’s What You Will Learn in this 1 Day Workshop….
The fundamentals of permission-based marketing; your legal obligations and why email marketing is definitely NOT dead.
Why Mailchimp is more than a POWERFUL email marketing platform and how you can use this technology to really expand your marketing reach.
Discover the various hindrances that keep your emails from getting delivered, plus an overview of Mailchimp’s advanced tools for mitigating the obstacles to successful deliverability.
How to organise your campaigns using Tags, Groups, and Segments, and how this helps refine your audience messaging and seriously grow sales.
- The intricacies of Forms, Templates and Branding and why good design + branding are crucial to your email marketing success.
How to set up an Opt-in Landing Page to use in social media (we do this as a hands-on exercise in the workshop).
The elements that go into crafting emails (that get OPENED!) that are personally relevant to your subscribers, compelling, and eloquent.
How to set up a transactional email workflow – not just one email, but a email marketing funnel that engages your subscribers.
Find out how to create a yearly DTC email marketing blueprint to guide every phase of your email marketing efforts.
Understand your target customers online habits from the data you’ve collected to send emails at the optimal open times.
- Tactics on how to continually grow your email subscribers list and ensure minimal unsubscribes.
How to work your 90 day email marketing calendar and plan your weekly, monthly or quarterly email campaigns in advance to cut down on your overwhelm and enable you to meet your marketing goals.
This is an in-depth and fast paced workshop as there is a lot to cover.
So come along with your laptop and prepared for a full day of learning and growth.

About the presenter – Tania Shirgwin
Hi! I’m Tania. I’ve been working in digital communications for over 14 years, 11 of those years through my own agency Decant Digital (formerly bizeez communications). I specialise in helping Wine, Tourism and Hospitality build compelling brand stories, develop websites that convert, and craft marketing campaigns that deliver. From beautiful, yet functional search optimised websites, professional copywriting and creative content to targeted DTC email marketing or PPC advertising campaigns – I am a digital marketing all-rounder and work across all touchpoints of the consumer experience.
Since 2010, I’ve also run face-to-face workshops and online courses on digital marketing for Wine, Tourism & Hospitality where I equip and empower participants with the tools, knowledge and perspective to combine creativity with smart business marketing strategy.
Through strategic DTC wine email marketing practices, business owners and marketing professionals – JUST LIKE YOU, can grow a profitable wine brand without the overwhelm.
Email marketing is such a powerful tool and has been responsible for generating millions of dollars in revenue for our wine clients.
I’ve spent over fourteen years promoting and testing email marketing (yes even before I started my own business I was working on email marketing tactics), so I can confidently share valuable insights which you can implement in your business.
Within my business, I have two maxims:
1) “The money is in the list”; and
2) “If it can’t be measured it can’t be managed”
And seriously, if you want to grow your customer base and DTC wine sales you need to nurture you email list and measure your results. That’s why I’ve created the Winery Email Marketing Mastery Workshop.
