WTN Services Supports the Consumer Direct Symposium
WTN Services is proud to again lead in partnership and sponsorship of the Wine Industry Consumer Direct Symposium http://www.coalitionforfreetrade.org/symposium/ that is a fundraising event for the Coalition for Free Trade and their solid work in creating a compliant and sustainable model for direct shipping of wine throughout the United States.
The Direct to Consumer Symposium is the wine industry’s premiere summit on direct marketing and sales. The second annual event held in February 2009 attracted a standing room only crowd of more than 350 attendees, a sold-out trade show, as well as guests and speakers from across the United States. This symposium drew an even larger group of vintners, winery associations and suppliers willing to share strategies and tactics that will help wineries grow their businesses. The symposium is presented by Coalition for Free Trade and Free the Grapes! two organizations that have worked with industry lobbyists to increase the market for legal direct-to-consumer wine shipments. Our very own Matt Wood will be participating this year in a panel Wine Clubs 101.
We are again thrilled to participate and encourage all of our winery partners to do the same.
