The Traveling Vineyard was created in 2001 as a unique in-home Wine Tasting concept. Traveling Vineyard Independent Wine Consultants bring wines into homes where the host, their friends and family can discover new varietals in a relaxed, pressure-free environment.
All of the wines presented at a Traveling Vineyard Wine Tasting are priced between $12.00 and $20.00. Hosts receive free shipping on their personal order on the date of the event and can also qualify for discounts and free items.
The Traveling Vineyard's mission is "To share our enthusiasm for wine with as many people as possible, while demystifying the wine tasting and selection process. To bring people together in a relaxed, home environment, providing hosts and their guests with an entertaining and informative wine tasting experience. To build relationships and strengthen friendships while rewarding hosts with a generous rewards program and consultants with fun, friendships, fulfillment, flexibility and financial reward along with the ability to learn and share their love of wine."
It costs $99.00 to get started as a Traveling Vineyard Independent Consultant. This includes a Success Kit including 3 months of a personal website. For $75.00 new Consultants can purchase two 5-bottle tasting sets to conduct their first two events. If a Consultant conducts three events in 60 days with interest to order of $250 or more, he or she will receive a refund of $99.00.
Traveling Vineyard Indepedent Consultants earn up to 35% of their personally generated sales and can build a team of Consultants to increase their earning potential. Each week, month and year The Traveling Vineyard acknowledges Consultants who achieve success with recognition, awards, and cash bonuses. The company also has an annual Incentive Trip for Consultants who qualify.
