Retail stores can benefit greatly from Blackboxx. Have you ever wondered how you can 1) start a new business line with minimal capital expenditures, 2) move a lot of product on a recurring basis easily and 3) create a new extremely loyal customer base? Ever think about a wine club? Maybe you haven’t because of the potential difficulties about finding a software or building something yourself. If so, it has never been easier to start up a recurring direct to consumer business line (a.k.a. a wine club) than ever before. That is what BlackSquare did when we started WineCollective and that turned into one of the most successful wine clubs in Canada.
As a retail liquor store, you have the inventory, suppliers, contacts with wine reps and even have the foot traffic necessary to start this new business line up quickly and easily. This isn’t your 2001 ecommerce, which has tried and failed in the wine industry. Wine Clubs are more profitable than ecommerce, easier to run with minimal overhead and generates high amounts of recurring revenue while simultaneously increasing customer loyalty and feedback.
We want to help your business by relieving the stress of running direct to consumer sales. We do this by providing a unique software solution that is focused specifically on the industry challenges.
You’re a wine store if:
- You have a physical location
- You may or may not have a comprehensive direct to consumer sales program
- You may or may not have an ad-hoc ecommerce already running
- Assume that you will be under 5,000 transactions per year
We understand the concept of a new direct to consumer sales channel seems complicated, but let us show you reasons why focusing on your wine club members can pay off. The particular features we think you’ll be interested in are:
- Fulfillment
- Batch processing
- Recurring billing
- The ability to have a public ecommerce store, recurring wine club orders and a VIP “members only” ecommerce store
- Plug and play with your existing ecommerce portal/POS system/inventory management system
Did we mention that if you use our design template there is no cost to get started? We give you everything you need to start and you don’t need a technical degree to understand the system. Our end goal is to help you succeed.
