How It Works
A Simple Consulting Process
Five clear steps, from the first conversation to ongoing support.
Step 1
Initial Conversation
Every project starts by understanding what you need. We discuss your business, wine requirements, preferences, budget, challenges, and goals.
Step 2
Evaluation
I review the information and identify where professional wine consulting can provide the most value.
Step 3
Recommendations
I develop recommendations based on your individual needs.
- Wine selection
- Sourcing
- Pricing
- Sales strategy
- Wine list development
- Portfolio planning
- Pairing
- Private purchasing
- Hospitality consulting
Step 4
Implementation
Depending on the project, I can assist with putting the agreed recommendations into action.
Step 5
Ongoing Consulting
Wine programs do not stay the same forever. Menus change. Customers change. Prices change. Availability changes. New wines enter the market. Existing products disappear.
When appropriate, I can continue working with clients to review and adjust their wine program over time.
