Hi, I'm Ben Salisbury
I understand exactly where you are coming from. I spent 34 years selling wine & spirits for some of the biggest and best companies in the business like Ste Michelle Wine Estates and Constellation Brands. I've seen first hand the capabilities of distributors diminish - especially in the last 6-7 years. Too many brands. Way too few distributors. Well, I bring good news because there ARE new methods and tools you can use and now is the perfect time to learn them. I've helped many wineries and distilleries implement these tools and methods and I can help you too!
