How to Organise a Wine Fundraiser with Alana Wines

Here’s a step-by-step guide to running a successful wine fundraiser with Alana Estate:

Pre-Fundraising:

1. Get in Touch with Alana Wines
   Start by contacting Alana Estate to express your interest in running a wine fundraiser. Enter your email below to get started.
2. Receive Your Fundraiser Kit
   Alana Estate will provide everything you need to run a wine fundraiser, including the wine list with tasting notes, fundraiser pricing, order form templates, and a shared spreadsheet to track orders.
3. Select Your Wines
   Decide which wines you’d like to offer in your fundraiser, set your prices, and finalise the details. You’ll also need to confirm your fundraiser start and end dates.
4. Customise Your Order Form
   Use the provided order form template to add your fundraiser’s branding, the wines you’re offering, and the prices. Make sure to include the final order date to avoid any last-minute rush.

Mid-Fundraising:

1. Promote Your Fundraiser
   Spread the word about your wine fundraiser through social media, newsletters, and word of mouth. Let friends, family, and the wider community know how they can support your cause by purchasing premium wines.
2. Track Orders
   As orders come in, enter them into the shared spreadsheet and collect payments from supporters. Keeping this organised will ensure a smooth process.

Post-Fundraising:

1. Finalise Your Orders
   Once the fundraiser ends, double-check the spreadsheet to ensure all orders are entered correctly and that payments have been received.
2. Confirm with Alana Estate
   Alana Estate will generate the final totals for each wine, and they will send you an invoice for the wholesale amount. After making the payment via bank deposit, the wine will be delivered to your specified address.
3. Distribute the Wine
   Once the wine arrives, it’s time to distribute the orders to your supporters. Make sure you have volunteers ready to help with deliveries if necessary.

Please note: Alana Estate ships the entire order to a single address to maximise your fundraiser’s profit margins. Shipping is included for the Wellington region, while additional costs for fundraisers outside Wellington will be quoted after orders are confirmed.
