Berry Bros. & Rudd make a splash on the desktop with Skinkers
Available for free from the Berry Bros. & Rudd website, Wine Splash is designed to appeal to both connoisseurs and novices alike. Wine buffs can expect to receive daily recommendations from experts, background information on products, early notice of exclusive wine events with links to booking facilities and quizzes to test users’ wine knowledge.
Wine Splash is also the first direct retail service from Skinkers, where recommendations and sales announcements are linked directly to the purchase mechanism.
Alex Murray, Internet Manager of Berry Bros. & Rudd said: "At Berry Bros. & Rudd, we are constantly looking to develop new technologies that meet the needs of fine wine lovers. We are delighted to have partnered with Skinkers in the formulation of the Wine Splash. Skinkers provide the ideal platform for the timely and trackable delivery of up-to-date wine information".
David Long, Managing Director of Skinkers commented: "This is a very exciting project for Skinkers. Not only is it a pleasure to be working with a prestigious company like Berry Bros. & Rudd, but it also demonstrates how versatile Skinkers technology can be, providing an opportunity to bring products straight to users’ desktops and directly increase sales."
