Evidence of successful wine business strategies: customer acquisition, value or retention?

Abstract

This presentation illustrates a series of successful wine businesses, which have managed to counter the downward trend impacting the global industry. How these businesses have been successful is explained through the planning and execution of strategies that focused on a clear and consistent aim in attracting new consumers. These cases add weight to the ehrenbergian position that for a business to be successful it must target new customers as a priority over alternative options like increasing value or improving customer retention. 

Preuve de stratégies commerciales réussies dans le secteur du vin : acquisition, valeur ou fidélisation des clients ?

Cette présentation montre une série d’entreprises viticoles, qui ont réussi à contrer la tendance à la baisse qui touche l’industrie mondiale. Le succès de ces entreprises s’explique par la planification et l’exécution de stratégies axées sur un objectif clair et cohérent consistant à attirer de nouveaux consommateurs. Ces cas ajoutent du poids à la position ehrenbergienne selon laquelle pour qu’une entreprise réussisse, elle doit cibler de nouveaux clients en priorité plutôt que des options alternatives telles que l’augmentation de la valeur ou l’amélioration de la fidélisation de la clientèle.

Climats: a model of terroir-based winegrowing recognized by UNESCO

In Burgundy, a climat has nothing to do with the weather but accurately designates a named vine plot, often centuries-old, which produces a singular wine. This wine is the combination of history, the natural environment (relief, type of soil, exposure to the sun), a grape variety and know-how going back thousands of years. The grapes of each climat are harvested separately and the wine is made from a single grape variety and has a unique name featured on the bottle.
