IWINETC today announced Felicity Carter Editor-in-chief of Meininger’s Wine Business International, as the fifth of six exciting keynote speakers lined up for IWINETC 2020, which takes place in Trieste from 24-25 March.
It’s third time back at IWINETC for Felicity and for the 2020 edition of the IWINETC she will be delivering a talk titled: Turn your staff into your best advocates. “Staff are the key to a successful wine tourism experience, whether they work in the cellar door or in marketing. But too often, staff training is limited to giving staff members information on the wines they’re selling and nothing more. Felicity Carter presents case studies of wine businesses that have improved their bottom line – and their visitor satisfaction – with better staff training”.
