Wine Import Business Startup

Wine Import Business Startup
How to Start, Run, and Grow Your Own successful Wine importing Business from Home



Have you ever wanted to be your own boss?

Are you longing to quit your 9 to 5 job and work from home?

Do you also enjoy sipping a crisp chardonnay or a smooth, oaky merlot?

What if I told you that you can enjoy this lifestyle while making money, too?

In this Wine Import Business Startup book I show you how to start, run, and grow your own home-based wine import business step-by-step.

I have always appreciated wines. I guess you could say, I was in love with wine.

I knew what the supposed experts said about food and wine pairings. I knew how to describe the body and the tannin of the wine.

When I found myself out of work, laid off from my typical office 9 to 5 job, I was inspired by wine. One evening, while sipping a glass of my favorite casual red blend, I started examining the label.

Where did my wine come from? What was its journey to get to me like? Who comprised the components of that voyage? What kind of money did they make doing it?

I share with you what I learned as I researched where the wine we drink comes from. This curiosity launched my home-based wine import business.

I became my own boss!

I have been in this business for a few years now, and it's as lucrative as ever. In my book, I show you how I got started and now how I continue to make my business thrive.

I am still just as in love with wine today as I was when I first started- probably even more so now!

In my book I will show you exactly what you need to get started with your own wine company brand. I have done most of the initial legwork for you.
