Wondering Where We Went?

I see by the sustained number of downloads that although there hasn’t been a recorded chat for 9 months, new people come and download the old ones. That indicates continued interest in the audio format about wine.

We tried for a long time to find a good match for a sponsor. The idea is not to get rich, but to get compensated for the many hours spent on organizing, doing, editing and publishing the conference recordings and keeping the site up to date. A sponsor with a theme such as a wine club or a group like ZAP (Zinfandel) could do amazing work with a periodic netcast about their wines.

If you have any interest in reaching the approximately 3,000 downloads per month that we are currently reaching, please get in touch.

Economic Crisis? I Got Yer Crisis Right Here

After four days of interviewing mostly foreign wine producers, I happened upon a stand that was selling Absinthe produced in Provence. I don’t wear my badge because it has a tendancy to fall off and I’d have lost it the first day if I hadn’t just stuck it in my pocket. When I asked about the Absinthe, the guy looked annoyed, he was discussing the crisis with colleagues and they all agreed, if I didn’t have a badge, I could go bother someone else.

Go Away Son, Ya Bother Me

Walking away, I happened upon this scene:

Come Taste Our Wines!

Let me see, which is the better commercial approach? D’UH!
