New Bank Branch Reaches Out to Prospects with Talking Wine Bar

Services Used

  • Turnkey wine and cheese tasting featuring talking wine bar

Back Story

When the CIBC Train Yards branch first opened, it needed to make the community aware of its presence and prospect for new customers. The branch decided to host a free financial seminar, but wanted a “hook” to draw people to attend.

Design & Production

Groovy Grapes designed and produced a Talking Wine Bar event to draw people to the seminar and create a social atmosphere ideal for business development. Groovy Grapes provided a turnkey service to the branch, including designing the event format, providing staff to facilitate the Talking Wine Bar experience, and providing a single point of contact for all logistics and invoicing.

Reviews

“Groovy Grapes created an interesting and interactive event that helped draw people to the new branch and enabled us to make contact with several good new client prospects. Groovy Grapes provided a professional service and impressed our guests. They looked after all the details, were very knowledgeable about wines, and it was a nice touch to provide attendees with the book, ‘This Food, That Wine’.” – CIBC Train Yards, Ottawa
