Must get this post up quickly because I’ve been asked (this morning) to come along to the BBC Working Lunch studios TOMORROW to discuss Wine, Social Media, and specifically the business benefits of Twitter.

Not only that, but I get to share a stage with Annie Mole who will be focusing on the blogging side of things – wow!

How exciting is that? I’d never intended to BE the wine spokesperson on Social Media, only to get to know it to the benefit of the wonderful wineries I work with, and all my wine friends. However, anything I can do to raise the visibility of wine blogging and wine tweeting, then great! After all, this IS the wine conversation.

Of course, one of the main points and examples will be the ongoing developments at Twitter Taste Live

If you are in the UK (or can access the BBC Two), check out the programme that starts at 12:30 tomorrow (6 January, 2009) or watch the iPlayer catch up in the next week.

MOST IMPORTANTLY, if you are reading this before the programme goes out, let me know what you think I should say. Any great examples of where Twitter has helped your wine business – winery, retailer, marketing agency or importer? What about as a wine consumer – has twitter helped you explore wine further? I’d love, in fact am DESPERATE for, your feedback.

Wish me luck!

  • thanks guys! I have lots of thoughts, I just hope I sound vaguely intelligent when trying to express then live on TV :)

    we'll know by 14:30 tomorrow
  • Congrats and good luck - I'll be tuning in tomorrow. Great publicity for wine/Twitter.

    I've posted my twitter posts to surf4wine since last year, and some people actually prefer that to the main blog posts - perhaps they prefer the brevity of Twitter to my rambling posts??

    Have used twitter too for reporting back from wine tasting's.

    Looking forward to finding out more/using Twiiter live. Cheers!
  • Good luck to you (and to Annie) sadly I dont really think I can assist - I've been using twitter as a marketing tool (publicising my blog posts) and keeping in touch with various friends ie your good self.
