325: 4 Wine-Focused Social Media Tips: Q&A with Heather Daenitz | Marketing Tip Monday
Q: What future trends should wineries prepare for in social media?
Expect AI-generated content to become more common, which will make genuinely human, unpolished content stand out more; also, shifting toward longer series that tell stories across posts helps engage audiences over time.
325: 4 Wine-Focused Social Media Tips: Q&A with Heather Daenitz | Marketing Tip Monday
Q: What should wineries prioritize on a limited time budget for social media?
Instagram remains the best platform for wineries; plan a weekly routine where you designate one hour to create content and then post at least one to two times per week, balancing photos, videos, and captions.
325: 4 Wine-Focused Social Media Tips: Q&A with Heather Daenitz | Marketing Tip Monday
Q: How can wineries build stronger relationships on social media?
The strategy is to spend time engaging daily by doing outreach engagement—interacting with people who have tagged the brand or with creators the winery wants to work with—rather than only responding to comments on their own posts.
325: 4 Wine-Focused Social Media Tips: Q&A with Heather Daenitz | Marketing Tip Monday
Q: Should wineries focus on reels, stories, or carousels, and how should they think about these formats?
Heather explains that there isn't a one-size-fits-all answer; the best format depends on the winery, the target audience, and the content's purpose, with a practical emphasis on using reels for reach, stories for connections, and carousels for updates.
324: Why Great Wine Isn't Enough: The Science of Liking
Q: I always like to start with the basics, what is the liking of food?
Liking is the pleasure one gets from eating or using a product, and it is shaped by learning and social and experiential factors more than purely innate taste.
