Wine and Spirits Marketing

Building a wine or spirits brand is not just about the product. It is about fostering a community of passionate enthusiasts. The most successful wine and spirits brands today are storytellers first. They have a distinct point of view, a loyal community, and a consistent presence across the channels where their audience lives.

ZenChange helps wineries, distilleries, wine bars, and spirits brands tell their unique story, connect with their target audience, and drive engagement. Whether you want to attract visitors to your tasting room, grow your wine club, boost online sales, or expand your distribution, our team builds the marketing systems to get you there.

The Strategy

How a Marketing Plan Fast-Tracks Your Brand Growth

Every wine and spirits brand is different. We build your strategy around your distribution model, your audience, and your growth goals.

01

Paid Ads: Maximized Reach

Competition for attention in wine and spirits can be intense. We find any audience who has searched for your products, fits the right demographic, and may have physically visited a relevant location within the past 3 years to within 200 feet. We optimize your spend across Google Ads, social media, and video streaming platforms like YouTube, Netflix, and Hulu.

A Website That Converts

Your website needs to load in 3 seconds or less, look incredible on mobile, and sell your story in a way that sets you apart. Storytelling is our specialty. We spend time with you to understand what truly sets your brand apart and deliver a message and experience that resonates with your audience and drives action.

Our Approach

Wine and Spirits Organic Marketing

Building a wine or spirits brand is about fostering a community of passionate enthusiasts. We help you tell your unique story, connect with your audience, and drive the kind of engagement that builds lasting brand equity. For Curious Cork, we built their entire digital presence from scratch and achieved 37K organic impressions in 6 months with a 70% email open rate.

01

CRM: Capture and Nurture Your Audience

Do you capture guest emails and phone numbers to continue the conversation? A CRM system automates nurturing those relationships. Send personalized emails, ask for referrals and testimonials, invite guests to join your club or mailing list. Did an event booking not close? Send an automated check-in. We set up GoHighLevel for wine and spirits brands to convert interested guests into loyal customers.

02

Community Engagement

Visibility is the first step, but you want to network online like you do at events. Join wine and spirits community groups, comment on posts, share, and make connections. Host live tastings, demonstrate recipes, and interview experts and community leaders. Out in the community? Share pictures and videos. Overwhelmed? We are great at capturing content and engaging on your behalf.

03

Reputation Management

People care what others think, especially when it comes to wine and spirits. The more 5-star reviews you have on Facebook, Google, Yelp, and wine review sites, the more confident a guest will be in visiting, buying, or booking an event. We implement automated review generation campaigns and help you maintain a strong online reputation.

04

Programmatic and Display Advertising

Gain visibility with your target audience through digital signage at hotels, salons, restaurants, and more. With zip-code-level targeting, even modest budgets can make a meaningful impact in driving tasting room foot traffic and online sales.
