Specialist Telephone Sales Support for the Cellar Door.
Vineyard Direct provides a Rapid Response tele sales service to Australian wineries looking for a short-term additional resource to crank up cellar door and wine club sales campaigns.
Chris Payne (Dip.Wine Marketing- Roseworthy) is an Australian wine telesales expert to help you sell more of your wines directly to your wine club members and follow up recent visitors to your cellar door.
Chris originally founded Vineyard Direct after graduating from the University of Adelaide (Roseworthy), as a pioneer online cellar door sales service - contracted by 115 Australian vineyards to sell their wines directly to wine lovers in Australia through the late 1990’s. Vineyard Direct delivered over $500,000 of incremental cellar door sales directly from wine club members and wine loving consumers.
Chris remains a proud Alumni of The University of Adelaide and a Wine Marketing expert with a proven track record of boosting direct sales for Cellar Doors with his wine knowledge and telesales expertise. Chris works remotely from Sydney on a casual basis. Flexibility is a strong suit, happy to be engaged on a specific project, or working as a backup to the existing cellar door team on seasonal campaigns. The service is rapidly deployable, cost-effective and leads to profitable outcomes.
Chris uses a customer relationship database (CRM) to professionally set up and report on all call outcomes daily. From October 2026 the set-up, download of records, scripting and briefing cost = $98.00. With a minimum of 3 hours per day service = $147.00.
Cheers - Chris
NB – This is really a labor of love, where knowledge, a sensory love of wine and communication skills lead to shared values - and from there on to a sale. Please leave your call back number in the Get in Touch below, or call Chris directly on mobile 0420 407 437. Chris will talk through the process and outcomes, to make it work for your vineyard.
