Presently for Wine Shops

Digital signage built for independent wine shops

The customer hunting a $60 Burgundy and the one who wants a reliable $18 Tuesday bottle walk the same aisle. One static display cannot speak to both.

Read the full guide

Presently reads who is in front of the screen and routes accordingly: provenance stories and verticals for the collector, food pairings and staff picks for the casual buyer, tasting event promos for everyone who lingers.

Why a static display falls short in a wine shop

Your inventory has a story nobody hears

Importers, vintages, the reason you stocked that obscure Jura. Hand-selling works when you are free; a screen tells the story when you are busy with another customer.

Premium bottles need a different pitch

Showing a $70 bottle promotion to a customer shopping the under-$20 shelf is wasted; showing the under-$20 shelf to a collector undersells your cellar. Demographic routing puts the right tier in front of the right buyer.

Events fill on word of mouth alone

Tastings and wine club signups are your retention engine, but a flyer by the register is easy to miss. A rotating screen near the racks puts every event in front of every visitor.

What the screen shows, by who walks up

Presently detects approximate audience signals (age range, gender) with on-device computer vision, picks the best-matching content from your library, and discards the camera frame immediately. Raw images are not stored or transmitted; optional dashboards use aggregate rollups only.

Where to place the first screens in a wine shop

Start at a decision point you can measure. One useful screen with a clear job is better than several screens repeating the same loop.

Everyday-price aisle

Use approachable pairings and staff picks where shoppers are comparing bottles, not at the register after the decision is made.

Premium and allocated section

Slow the content down and explain producer, vintage, and provenance in a format that supports a considered purchase.

Tasting and checkout area

Promote the next tasting, wine club, and one complementary add-on while customers are already engaged.

Three campaigns to run first

Give each campaign one audience, one action, and one success measure. Keep the first test live long enough to compare against a clean baseline.

Dinner pairing of the week

Build one campaign around a meal, three price points, and a clear staff recommendation.

Tasting fill campaign

Start ten days before the event, switch to limited-seat messaging at the halfway point, and stop automatically when full.

Case and club conversion

Explain the actual savings and member benefit instead of using a generic join-the-club slide.

Try it: tap who walks up

This is the same routing logic that runs on the device. Pick a customer and watch the display pick the creative.
