How to Prove a Wine Preserver Works in Your Business

For very low cost to both source a wine preserver AND use it in your operation, you can run a limited trial and see the before and after revenue that can some from using a wine preserver to expand your wine by the glass program as well as your full bottle / wine take home full bottle revenue.

• Look at your current wine by the glass (WBTG) offering
• Pick a variety (or two) and source a more expensive bottle of wine than you've historically offered. If your current top glass is $14, try an $18 glass. Buy a few bottles.
• Get a can of Silvadore Wine Preserver. You can even contact us for a no cost sample.
• Promote the new and higher quality wine by the glass in your restaurant for a week or two or up to a month, depending on your typical volume.
• Use Silvadore to preserve the open bottle(s) of wine at the end of shift or after each pour, again depending on frequency of pours.
