I'm Martial. I grew up in France and spent eleven years in California, where I built a wine marketing consultancy. Now I run Franc Wine, a wine marketing agency of one, from the Sussex coast, helping wineries sell more bottles direct and helping the companies that serve wineries win them as clients.
Your best customers buy from you directly. I build the website, shop, email programme and club offer that keep them coming back, and the search and social work that brings new drinkers to your door.
Pick the one that sounds like you.
Winemakers buy from people who understand their year. I build websites, search campaigns and lead follow-up that speak the language of the cellar, so your sales team spends its time with qualified wineries.
