'Virtual' Direct Shipping Seminar: October 16th 10AM PT


You're invited to participate in the latest installment of 'Virtual' Direct Shipping Seminars presented by Wine Institute, ShipCompliant, FedEx, and Wine Business Monthly. The 'Virtual' Seminar format lets you attend from your desk. Click the link below for more information and to register.

http://www.shipcompliant.com/events/


Event Summary
Taking orders directly from your customers can create a more personal connection to the winery, allows them access to a wider variety of wines, and provides your winery with a higher margin sale. Unfortunately there are barriers to accessing this channel, such as individual state shipping rules, direct shipping license applications, accurate tax collection, and reporting requirements.
Whether you have an established direct shipping program or you're just getting started, staying up to date on the latest rules and regulations is an important (and time consuming) first step. We've lined up the expert panel to help you:
• Director State Relations at Wine Institute, Steve Gross, will present a state-by-state report of recent and upcoming changes.
• Special guest speaker, Tom Ourada of the Wisconsin Department of Revenue, will introduce the new direct shipping program implemented in Wisconsin, taking effect October 1, 2008.
• Presenters FedEx and ShipCompliant will show you tools and best practices for making your direct shipping program cost effective and compliant.

This seminar is uniquely presented in a virtual format allowing you to participate via a web browser and a phone line. Click the 'Register' button above to reserve your spot. Once you register, you will receive an email with the link to the web conference and the phone number to call into.
