What Actually Changes When a Winery Moves to Shopify POS? When a winery switches to Shopify POS, they think they’re changing software. What they’re actually changing is workflow.  Over the past several weeks, I’ve been documenting what this transition looks like here in Washington, in real tasting rooms with real staff and real inventory. If you’re evaluating a move to Shopify POS, here’s what actually changes, and what doesn’t. 

I recently spent the day with Florence Cellars as they opened their tasting room in the heart of downtown Woodinville’s wine country.  First, congratulations to their team! The space looks great. The turnout was fantastic. It was one of those days where you could feel the energy in the room and it couldn’t have been more exciting.  

As a designer and web strategist who’s worked across dozens of industries—from wineries to ecomm brands—I’ve seen firsthand how good design isn’t just pretty pictures and decoration. It is strategy.

Richard Duval of Winepix.net and I have worked together for almost three decades, and I’ve had the privilege of using his images on more websites and collateral pieces than I can count. Beyond being a talented photographer, Richard is a massive supporter of the Washington wine industry. H
