Challenge
Each new vintage required new neck hangers and table tents at every tasting room. DTC shop links on printed materials pointed to sold-out wines for weeks.
Solution
Marketing printed one dynamic QR on neck hanger templates chain-wide. Tasting menus, club signup forms and DTC shop URLs update from HQ on bottling day. Geofence routing shows the right room menu for travelers.
Results
- Wine club signups via QR rose 29% in the first year.
- Avoided six group-wide neck hanger reprint runs.
- DTC revenue from tasting room scans increased after centralized shop link updates.
“We release new wines monthly. The neck hanger QR stays — the tasting menu URL changes on bottling day.”
