November Webinar to Address Winery Direct Shipping Changes

Popular event comes just in time for busiest shipping season

Boulder, Colo.—October 27, 2010—ShipCompliant, a software provider for automated wine and spirits compliance and distribution, will host a free, online direct shipping seminar for wineries on Monday, November 8 at 1 p.m. Pacific time to address numerous legislative changes that have taken place this year. This seminar will deliver in-depth information for wineries just as the industry’s busiest sales and shipping season kicks into full gear.

“It’s a perfect time to learn about the latest changes on the state and federal levels as well as how to operate compliantly and efficiently with state laws,” said Jeff Carroll, vice president of compliance at ShipCompliant.

Participants will hear a detailed, state-by-state legislative summary from Steve Gross, director of state relations at Wine Institute, including updates on the status of New Jersey and Maryland opening for direct shipping. Panelists will discuss the latest news surrounding H.R. 5034, the use of third-party fulfillment and marketing agents, best practices for year-end reporting, and specific tools and tactics that wineries can use to reduce operation costs as the industry adapts to today’s technologically advanced world.

“ShipCompliant is committed to furthering industry education and open discussions through our ongoing conference and workshop series,” said Carroll. “Because this is a virtual (or online) event, anyone with a computer and Internet access can log in to participate. There is no cost to attend.”
