How does it work?
We agree with you on a range of wines - wine-styles, volume and price points. Costs, budgets and pricing are agreed using a "Cost Plus" approach, not an ex-winery price including margin.
We help fund production through firm orders, cash and other financing support. You earn through a monthly retainer and/or bottle fee - your income/profit is guaranteed.
Additional earnings are possible by impacting direct sales.
You are the brand and therefore own the brand. We take care of all sales, marketing and regulatory tasks.
You earn through a monthly retainer and/or bottle fee - your income/profit is guaranteed.
What do we mean by "Cost Plus"?
Costs: Grapes + Winemaking + Dry goods + Bottling
Plus: Winemaker income (retainer and/or bottle fee) + NW margin + Delivery cost
Why? We want a transparent approach to cost, not clouded in margin and provides flexibility to accomodate vintage variation. It protects the winemakers earnings and ensure customers don't pay overinflated prices.
What's expected of you?
- Truly world-class wines that "WOW" our customers
- Knowledge and access to the best grapes, techniques and winemaking tools
- Reliable forecasting of costs and volumes
- Regular online interaction with our customers
- Promotion of Naked Wines and yourself in the media
- Once a year joining a tasting tour to support your wines
Understanding our business model... a virtuous circle!
Our customer "Angels" pre-pay monthly against future wine orders. We invest this money in independent winemakers. The wines made are sold online and direct to the customer so no middleman.
