Online education @SSU_1961 will "..[shore] up revenues for universities in a way that is more recession-proof, policy-proof and pandemic-proof..." as one of my first on-line #WineBusiness students in 2002, Réka @SfrisoWinetime would surely attest. nyti.ms/3ejLhL2

Driving through the #SantaRitaHills this afternoon and have time for one winery visit. Are any @SantaBarbara wineries in that #AVA monitoring social media channels for new customers?

It’s going to be an honor to moderate this session tomorrow @SSU_1961 … Not that I’m nervous or anything

🚀 The next trillion-dollar companies will come from new frontiers.
Copernic Space Co-Founder @LadyRocketSpace will speak about “Trillion Dollar Firms”, at Sonoma State University on October 15th. She’ll join a lineup of influential founders and industry leaders
At Copernic Space, we believe the next trillion-dollar players will be built around space infrastructure, digital assets, and decentralized access to the space economy — and we’re laying that foundation today.
Link to join her and learn more about what defines the next generation of trillion-dollar ventures below

Never had one of these home appliance brands historically, but we moved into a house 4 years ago with a fridge-freezer with French doors. Its icemaker stopped working recently and the service technician who came out said it needs to be replaced. What are our options? @SamsungUS

I think someone at the @sacstate strike today listens to @iamcardib … Let’s hope that @calstate is listening to faculty through the @CFA_United

A number of #winebiz articles now highlighting priorities to help the sector recover. If you've got an opinion on a priority on which the wine industry should be focusing attention, share it here to contribute to professionals' education @SSU_1961 needs: app.sli.do/event/gvCChtMqNnD…

Still using this circa @twitter genesis pen from @FisherPenCo … Can I get replacement clutch units for this Q4 model?

Son just had @DoorDash deliver his lunch. He told me he couldn’t find anything in the house to eat. … The fridge literally has barbecue ribs, coleslaw, mac&cheese and mushroom risotto available in single serve containers 🤦🏻♂️

Any idea @BevMo why this coupon isn’t working at my local store? Am I not buying enough alcohol?

Even puts this brand into consideration now... Just from this video. Will that last? Time will tell. Excellent execution by #Beer and it would be great to see a #wine equivalent... Anyone?

Fabulous storytelling by an old brand. lnkd.in/gHSzktFk

Starting my @WineBizSSU #visitingscholar experience with @Aaron_Driver of @UniNewEngland today. Will connect with IT team to get on-line, but have to use this historical artifact in the meantime. Any tips on finding the start button? @FisherPenCo

Very good point. These used to be used to leverage in wines at retail for years. It wasn't until someone started looking at all those wines sitting on shelves and asked themselves 'how come those 10-person focus group results were wrong for our [mass] retail market?'... Hmmmm...
2 Feb 2023
I think live focus groups might be even more badly abused. People tell themselves "it's only 10 people", but then proceed as if it was a large, representative sample. And then there's interaction effects, poor screening...

Like the ‘Add status’ @TwitterCreators feature, but where is the ‘stuffing my face’ @drewskishotrod during @theunified in Sacramento option?

I mean, seriously? Mike-in-the-window @drewskishotrod (psst - his name is not Drew, contrary to his merch) delivered this stunner, and I can’t get it in my face fast enough @theunified

Shout out to those @SSU_1961 last weekend, attending #AIS2022 with >100 others around the world. For those sticking around to sample the wonders of #NorCal like the wine donated by @coppolawine you still have until Nov 21 to benefit with the conference hashtag. DM for details.

Hi @Uber_Support could you tell me what a fee adjustment 'Upcharge because of SUV/XL' means? Except that you think it's OK to just change the price I was quoted when I took that ride last night. Let me know if you need the invoice number.

To give credit @Uber_Support for getting in touch with me, it is somewhat disconcerting that @Uber has an app with my contact details that they couldn’t find on their system when I challenged one of their charges.

After learning about writing teaching notes @nacra_cases during #NACRA2022 the session on new case considerations is the close on an amazing day. Tools in place for the @WineBizSSU journal.
