Hey everyone,

I recently started my own wine brand called OBA and I'm in year two of this process. It's an e-commerce wine business, where I can ship DTC.

I wanted to get my wine into stores, but I need to find a disruptor that liquor stores can purchase my wine. Does anyone know of any?

How to choose which financial advisor to work with.
I have no financial experience and an advisor reached out from equitable.

What's a good percentage (they're offering 2% as a fee)

Asking for a friend - anyone staying in a marriage just for the kid(s)?

It's not like the marriage is terrible or unhealthy, but they would take an out if not for having had the kids.

Anyone else experience this? I'm wondering how common this is.

GF is 32 and I’m 28. She wants kids within 2 years, understandably. I never envisioned having kids that early (more like late 30s), but I like her a lot. Anyone else gone through something similar?

Science and art are completely intertwined as I see it; color theory, composition, and balance all coming together to create a cohesive whole. Thoughts?

Folks,

Just curious if any1 here has opted for BH number plate for their vehicles, whilst being an HSBC group employee (HDPI, HTI, India or any other entity). Are GSC employees eligible for BH number plate? If yes, what was the process like?

Hi fishes,

Please give me 11 like for DM... Thanks in advance 😊

I want to move to Europe or New Zealand. I am educated/barred in the US and only speak English. Is this hopeless, or are there opportunities out there for someone like me?

Fwiw, T14, V50 big law, F50 in-house. Antitrust/competition/sales/marketing/business strategy and ops.

Cross-posting.

I’m tired of...

Top companies or types of companies for consumer insights/analytics? E.g. in terms of opportunities to learn, general progression, salary, etc

Hi fishies, welcome to the OHG bowl!

My Creative Directors, who are strong copywriters, are really struggling to collaborate with Art Directors. Are there programs or classes that teach creative collaboration and the creative process?

I had a great review and a 5.5% raise and a great bonus at my company. But I also got a new Director and a peer manager of mine left the company, so I will be absorbing her team. In addition, my director said I will be receiving 'deep delegation' from them. I don't mind more work, but deep delegation is a new term I've never heard. What does that mean lol?

So my team currently uses onenote to house all of our SOPs and reference guides, but it’s becoming a monstrosity and it’s really hard to search and navigate. What programs do you use to provide your team with resources? Or is there some trick to onenote organization that we are missing maybe?

What to do when you’re with relatives and Prosecco is considered a suitable proxy for Champagne for NYE.

What are you drinking this evening?

Anyone have any tips for visiting Sonoma on a budget. Trying to find a balance with the group we are going with where we still get to do tastings etc but don’t break the bank. Thanks!

Anybody getting in on Bordeaux 2020 futures?

Any advice for how to transport wine during a move (1,000 miles driving)? There’s only about 15 bottles i actually care about from my collection - I’ll probably end up just drinking the other 30 by the time we move.

I’m looking at furthering my wine education. Should I take a wine making course or a somm-type tasting course first? Wondering if the order of one before the other would help build better foundation.

Wine friends help! I need an amazing California Pinot Noir for $150-200. Got any suggestions?

Opinions on 150-200 bottle wine refrigerators?
Am considering the artevino iii but having a hard time justifying the $850 difference to the wine enthusiast classic 150. Current collection is 65 bottles with majority benefiting from additional aging.

I need a new rec on a consistently good daily red. $20-30/bottle price point - I tend to go for Sangiovese, Chianti, and Pinot Noir. Thoughts?

Sparkling Wine or Champagne around $30 that’s really good? Need it as return gift to all guests for our baby shower.

Do you ever buy bottles to hold/age them and resell?

What wine clubs are you guys members? Would love some recommendations.

Best wine app? Wanting to catalog the bottles I have, see stats, get notified when wine is coming up to drink (out of hold periods), etc.
