Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Building Buckets: What Fine Wine Can Learn from Luxury Brands' Data Playbook
Q: What are the practical buckets you recommend, and how do you use them in engagement?
Start with four buckets: new, loyal, re-engaged, and dropped. Use these to tailor approaches—new clients should understand the brand emotionally and contextually; loyal ones can be nurtured toward broader product engagement; re-engaged and dropped require careful messaging that avoids hard selling and emphasizes remembrance and opportunity.
Building Buckets: What Fine Wine Can Learn from Luxury Brands' Data Playbook
Q: How has your job changed over the last 15 years in terms of analysis used?
Originally the focus was on measuring performance like sales and quantities; after COVID, the emphasis shifted to measuring engagement and the strength of the client-brand relationship, with a broader view on loyalty and resonance across the customer journey.
Building Buckets: What Fine Wine Can Learn from Luxury Brands' Data Playbook
Q: My first question for you is the very traditional one. Can you tell us what you do and introduce yourself?
I'm a mathematician by training who translates complex customer behavior data into actionable commercial strategy for luxury maisons, focusing on client telling, segmentation, and loyalty program design; I help define how to measure and engage clients across the brand ladder.
NCNN ep7: Don't Forget You're Throwing a Party
Q: What makes your approach to Burgundy events different from traditional wine tastings?
The focus is on storytelling through place, people, and culture, not just wine; we curate conversations, invite diverse storytellers, and design experiences that feel like a private party rather than a one-way tasting.
The Economics of Desire: Inside Wine Auctions with Amayès Aouli
Q: And quite logically, my very first question would be to ask you to introduce yourself and tell us what you do and what is that role in place that you have in the global fine wine ecosystem.
Amayès describes his role as Global Head of Wine and Spirits at Bonhams, leading a team of experts across the globe, focusing on auctions of fine wines and spirits, partnerships with domains, and charity auctions, all while maintaining high standards and global reach.
