Welcome to the very first episode of Meet Me at Brunch. In this chat, Maddy (Head of Marketing) and Hugh (Business Development Manager) talk through the basics of digital marketing for wineries — what it actually is, why it matters, and how to get started without feeling overwhelmed.

From quick wins to big-picture thinking, this episode covers a lot — and it’s all designed to be actionable straight away.
