A DTC Winery · Pennsylvania
Regional DTC Winery provided two years of QuickBooks P&L data and a full year of Square transaction history. The combination of financial and transactional data unlocked the real story. The wine club drives the majority of revenue, and the diagnostic identified that capturing unattributed customer transactions could increase identifiable member revenue by more than 20%. Additionally, a top-performing SKU was priced below what demand supported, and discount patterns were leaking margin in one category while quietly funding loyalty in another. Clear gaps, concrete dollar values, and a ranked action plan.
