What’s next? Where will growth come from?

We believe:

The biggest engine of future growth will be…

…The Social Business

Here’s why you should take it seriously…

We are PAYING to be sold to.

Wine Not wine

In four-and-a-bit years, we have…

Acquired 500,000 new customers…

Invested over £40m into independent winemakers

Shipping over 25,000 bottles of wine… a day!

Grew sales by 54% in 2012

And we’re profitable.

While competing against…

How?

Carmen Stevens

- Angels got together to raise £120K in 8 hours

- Her dream came true to be her own boss and make wines under her own name

Why do we do it?

Vicious Circle Virtuous CircleSuppliers • Screw suppliers into the

ground in search for lower prices

• Pass selling costs onto suppliers

• Invest in suppliers so they can improve quality

• Remove selling costs

Customers • Identify best customers – and then fleece them

• Best deals to best customers

Staff • Outsource, downsize, right-size

• Make all staff shareholders – so that they share in the value they create

And we’re not alone

We involve our customers in everything we do
