Hey @bentossell, Since we were last on Product Hunt, we joined the Techstars accelerator. It has been an awesome experience. Our SMS concierge service is booming. We have been pleasantly surprised by our repeat purchase rate and retention. SMS accounts for 98% of our sales and has vastly outperformed our iOS app. Perhaps it's the familiar U.I. but our customers also tell us they love the personal relationship with their drink expert. Because we're willing to have a conversation with our customers, we collect a lot of data on their taste preferences and can hunt down bottles they'll love. So we're doubling down on conversational commerce and building out services like this subscription box powered by our team of SMS sommeliers. We have Slack and Facebook messenger chat services in the works too. P.S. - @chrismessina is an awesome SMS customer. :)
