Hi,

Thanks for taking a moment to read this.

We now have 100 Wine Bats on Meetup, but they seldom come to the wine tastings. Usually no more than 4-5 reservations and half of those do not show up.

Please let me know what I can do differently to get enable you to come.

Do we need different time?

Different nights?

Different format?

I am willing to setup what will work best for everyone, but I need your feedback to be able to do that.

Please take a moment to let me know I can tailor these winetasting events to better suit you. You can email me at [address removed] , call me at 512-961-6151, or post in the winebat forums I have setup for us at
www.winebat.com/forums/index.php?showforum=16

I am also available by telephone for any support in using the www.winebat.com website. You can see all upcoming events and make reservations at the winebat website.
