Guest acquisition for wineries
Your next club members are already on the reservation.
One guest books. The whole party arrives. HMBL Partners helps your booker welcome every guest in the party before the visit, when they're most excited, without interrupting the experience you've worked so hard to create.
One guest books. You know who they are.
The party behind every booking
Great experiences are never booked alone.
The friends, family and colleagues who come with your members and bookers are there for the same reason: an exceptional experience at your estate. They share the taste, the means and the appetite for the next one. They're your fastest path to new club members.
Today, they arrive anonymous and leave the same way.
of winery visits end without capturing any guest contact information.1
The right moment
No awkward ask mid-experience.
No one wants a wine educator to interrupt a beautiful pour to ask for an email. So most guests are never asked, or are asked at the worst possible moment.
We reach your guests before they arrive, while they're anticipating the visit. Then the visit confirms the relationship instead of starting it.
How it works
Started by the booker. Not by you.
That's why it works. The invitation reaches each guest as a message from a friend, not a marketing email from a winery.
1A reservation lands
Keep the reservation system you already use: Tock, Resy or your own booking forms. No switching, and nothing new for your team.
2HMBL Welcome prepares the visit
Every booker receives a private, branded itinerary from your domain, made for inviting their group. Secure and private, with nothing for your team to do.
3The booker brings the party in
The whole group gets everything they need before the visit. Each guest gets their own itinerary for the visit: the experience, directions, timing, menus. A reason to say yes, not a form to fill out. And a message from a friend gets opened: 85% of invites in our live program.2
4Guests opt in and land in your list
Each guest claims their own welcome and chooses to hear from you. New contacts go straight into your own Mailchimp or Klaviyo, tagged and ready. No exports, no middlemen.
We’ll show you a live itinerary, guest view and all, in 20 minutes.
- No new booking system
- No app or account for guests
- No tablets at the tasting bar
- No exports or middlemen
