I think this is a fabulous question. There are some natural differences in the product (i.e., caffeine vs. alcohol, morning vs. evening), but something that a little (or a lot) of marketing couldn't solve!

Think of how wine is branded and marketed. There is tourism directly to the wineries themselves. Celebrities reference the maker of wines in their films and songs, lending prestige and creating more awareness. Wine farms aren't farms, they're vineyards. There is an entire lexicon that goes with wine. There are university degrees specifically on growing grapes, making wine, and running a vineyard (with a couple marketing electives I'm sure).

So there you go, you budding entrepreneurs. Take some notes from the wine industry and go make your millions.

Hi Jay,

Thanks for coming back to do another AMA.

What the frig is going on with the Ducks this year? Do you think they'll bounce back?
