Reach the wine buyers while the shelves are still open.

Oxpium builds the list of wine shops in your area, finds the owner or wine buyer at each one, tells you when a shop starts hiring or opens a tasting bar, and runs the campaign.

[01]The list

Every wine shop in your area, in one sentence.

A city, a rating, the shops that focus on natural wine or the ones with a tasting bar: describe the target the way you'd tell a colleague. The agent searches public sources and professional databases, reads the websites when it needs to, removes the duplicates and the closed shops, and hands you a list.

  • An area

    A city, a county or every shop within your distributor's territory: the agent covers the whole area and hands you one list.

  • A focus

    Natural wine, fine wine, craft spirits, a big beer wall: the agent reads each shop's website and keeps the ones that put it forward.

  • A rating and reviews

    A minimum rating and number of reviews, to start with the shops that have a loyal crowd, sorted by number of reviews.

  • Wine shop, not liquor store

    Keep the shops that curate wine and leave out the ones that mostly sell spirits and lottery tickets: the agent reads each website.

[02]Enrichment

The buyer, their cell, and what the shop is known for.

In an independent wine shop, the owner usually tastes and buys; in a bigger store, a wine buyer or a manager does. The agent finds the right person, a verified email and a cell when there is one, reads what the shop puts forward and notes when tastings take place, so you don't call in the middle of one.

  • The owner or buyer

    The owner of each shop, or the wine buyer when the website names one, with a verified email and a cell number when there is one.

  • The website email

    The agent reads each shop's website, finds the email published for orders, events or corporate gifts, and verifies it.

  • What the shop is known for

    Regions, natural wine, craft spirits, a tasting bar: one column per question, filled in by reading each shop's website.

  • Tastings and hours

    The day of the weekly tasting and the shop's hours, so you call on a quiet weekday morning and not during a Friday tasting.

[03]Signals

Automations that keep an eye on wine shops for you.

A shop hires a new wine buyer, another opens a tasting bar, a third starts selling gift boxes to companies: those are the moments when the shelf and the supplier list get rethought. Each automation reruns its search on schedule and adds what just changed to the top of the list.

2 wine shops posted a job since Friday.

  • A new buyer or more staff

    Every weekday morning, an automation adds the shops that just posted a job, from holiday sales staff to a new wine buyer.

  • A bar or classes

    Every month, the agent rereads the websites and flags the shops that open a tasting bar, start classes or begin selling online.

  • Ratings going up

    Every month, the shops whose rating is up by 0.2 or more move to the top of the list, marked with a badge: they're growing.

  • Your own watch

    Any watch you can write in one sentence, like the shops offering corporate holiday gifts: the agent reruns it every week.

[04]The campaign

A campaign that reaches buyers while the selection is open.

Wine buyers set the holiday selection in September and October and rework the shelves in January, when the store is quiet. From Thanksgiving to New Year's Eve, nobody has a minute. Call Tuesday to Thursday in the late morning, before the after-work crowd. Email from your own mailbox, calls from your browser, an agent step that writes every follow-up, and the campaign stops as soon as they reply.

Campaign · Importer · call firstSending · Tue–Thu · 11 am–1 pm
D1·Call

Call the shop

“Hi first_name, I import small-grower wines from the Loire and we're now distributed in Illinois. I saw shop puts forward regions. Do you have room for a Chenin on the shelf?” The call summary notes what the shelf is missing, and the row moves to “Interested” or “Call back”.
  • The late-morning lull

    Emails and calls go out Tuesday to Thursday between 11 am and 1 pm, when the shop is open, quiet and the buyer is on the floor.

  • Calls from the browser

    You call straight from your browser. Every call is recorded, transcribed and summarized right in the list, next to the shop.

  • Follow-ups about wine

    Every email is built from the list's columns, and an agent step reads the shop's website to write a follow-up that fits its shelf.

  • Stops on reply

    As soon as a buyer replies, the campaign stops for them. You take the conversation from there, and the next follow-up never goes out.
