In August I was honored to accept an invitation to speak in Belgium! I gave a presentation on wine branding to 180 attendees of the Limburg Province Wine Congress. I presented “Case Study: How 6 brands target 6 different wine consumers.”

Other speakers at the conference were from England, France, and Italy. While I was there, my hosts also acted as tour guides and showed me their apple, pear, and grape-growing regions, plus took me to the Gent Museum to see a Time Burton exhibit (loved!), went on a hike, and enjoy some fabulous food and wine pairings.

One more note on my trip: When it comes to online marketing, I practice what I preach! Sven from the Limburg Province Wine Conference found me online using Google. A digital marketing plan that boosts your Google standing gives you the ability to be found worldwide. Never underestimate the power of providing online content to a specific niche.
