Direct-to-consumer growth for wineries
Know the Customer. Own the Growth.
Overall alcohol consumption is down, and seltzers have taken share from wine. Growth is now won by the wineries that understand the customer relationship, the data, and the repeat purchase.
We help you expand direct sales into additional states where you’re eligible to ship.
The average winery now earns 70% of its revenue direct to consumer, and small wineries rely on DTC even more. Wine clubs (28.1%) and tasting rooms (27.0%) are wineries' two largest sales channels, together about 55% of sales. The opportunity is in running them like a system.
- With DTC, you capture margin that would otherwise go to distributors and retailers.
- Grow the biggest piece of the pie – DTC – for the greatest return.
- Wine clubs and tasting rooms are your top two channels.
- Ecommerce should be one of your top channels.
- The customer data you already hold shows you your next move.
This Is What Owning Growth Looks Like.

State and federal compliance
Grow Into More States, With Compliance Support.
Selling wine direct means following state and federal rules for how you sell, market, and ship. We build compliance support into all three, so you can grow into every state where you’re licensed to ship.
Marketing
Review campaigns, emails, and ads against federal (TTB) and state wine advertising rules before they go out.
Shipping
Put the systems and processes in place to ship to consumers in the states where you hold the required permits.
