Every business has their own drivers for seeking new software🖥️ Earlier in the year we spoke with Matt Thompson from FOUR CORNERS WINE COMPANY LIMITED , George Miller from Latimer Vintners Ltd and Violaine Manac'h from Halo Wines . We discussed the process of moving to new software, and their respective drivers: 🚀 To move away from disparate spreadsheets and systems to one, industry specific solution. 🚀 To change software systems as a result of numerous 'frustrations' with an existing system. 🚀 To support a start up wine business so they can hit the ground running. We love Violaine's advice to 'just do it' when it comes to implementing new software, but selecting which software requires some consideration. Read our guide 'Choosing Wine Industry Software' to get clarity on your options, as well as helping you prioritise which software criteria is essential to you. https://ow.ly/RQCI50TZ7zL #winesoftware #winehub #wineowners #wine #winetech #winebusiness

At our recent Wine Business Network event, we were truly inspired by the insights shared by Susanne Given . Her concept of the 'rear view mirror' in business really struck a chord. For decades, businesses have thrived by leaning on the experience of experienced heads, as they could refer back to what had worked in the past (hence the rear-view mirror referral), in the belief those learnings would inform good future-facing decisions. Whilst experience still has huge value, what Susanne explained was that since 2008 the landscape has shifted, and today, unlocking value can come from recognising systemic change and how to respond to that – requiring different thinking. This is potentially a timely call to action, given the multi-faceted challenges the wine market faces. Live debate includes: 👉 The merit of different stockholding strategies 🍷 The dwindling appeal of new releases 👉 A potential fine wine shift towards marketplaces 🍷 The jurisdictional challenges post-Brexit for UK secondary market traders 👉 The erosion of the UK’s historical fine wine trading predominance 🍷 The changing buying patterns of the up and coming generations with discretionary spending power Inviting diversity into strategic conversations; in terms of a person's role, experience or gender encourages original thought, from which better strategic decisions arise. Susanne made us all take stock and we hope that conversations such as these that will help positively shape the future of the wine trade! #diversity #wine #originalthought #GoodbyeRearviewMirror

Industry issues to face into It’s the time – yet again – for our industry to galvanise itself, join hands and fight for our future. We are facing major, avoidable, headwinds Extended Producer Responsibility (I wish most of those in power would truly understand that last word) is due to be launched next April. The fees for this will only be given to us AFTER the scheme launches. You couldn’t make this up – along with the ridiculous range of indicative cost. How can we budget, price or execute any kind of strategy. And that’s before the potential impact on the resulting cost of wine for our customers. It would be comical if it weren’t so tragic. And excise duty. There has been a lot written and discussed on the need for the current duty easement (for another ridiculous plan introduced by the last government) to be left in place. If only those designing these rules knew the serious impact they have on business; and again on our customers. The nightmare scenario is that easement is removed; and then compounded by a rise in duty at the forthcoming budget. This post is to encourage anyone who cares to support the WSTA's valiant efforts to help and support our industry ( https://wsta.co.uk/ ). What we each need to do they make very clear.
