 quality.
Moral of the story: if you have a winery, you have endless opportunities to create high quality content.
This one is really simple, get to know what your audience likes on social media. How do you do this? By trying different things! If you notice one post getting a lot more attention than others, have a look at what stands out about that post. This could be anything from what’s happening in a photo, to what the caption says, or even the time of day you post!
For example if you notice people interact with posts that involve your winemaker, post more of them! But of course, you don’t want to post the same content on repeat or it will get old. What you want to do is try a heap of different types of posts in different formats, and understand what works best. But as I went over in #Tip 2, keep it authentic.
Simply, if you post a video with a person in it who smiles at some point (so you can use that as the video thumbnail image) you are likely to get more engagement.
And as I mentioned in Tip #2, it doesn’t have to be a high quality production and you don’t have to be a trained presenter. A smartphone video of a person being themselves talking about something related to your winery is just as effective, and probably more relatable too.
Tip #5: Save time where you can.
Social media is a lot of work, that’s why there is an entire sub-profession dedicated to it. Don’t be afraid to utilise social media post scheduling tools. You can still follow Tips #2-4, but also take a bit off your plate. Just put aside some time at the start of the week and work out what’s going on, what went well last week and queue up your posts.
Hootsuite, among others, has a free option with enough tools to get your started.
Also, don’t be afraid to post on the fly! Contrary to what we know about “popular” posting times, if something cool just happened let people know.
Have fun through your social media profiles, because that’s what wine is about and it’s what your followers love about it (and you)!The "East Africa Commercial & Logistics Center" in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania, called EACLC for short, which is referred to as the Ubungo international long-distance bus station, and is built at the intersection of Morogoro Rd. and Sam Nujoma.

While these two might look very different on the outside – what with one being a two-box and one being a three-box shape and all – their shared mission puts them far closer together than you might think.
Both are compacts, one hatch, one sedan, and both have a diesel drivetrain engineered for maximum fuel efficiency. One is fresh from a redesign, the other at the end of its current generation, and we were curious how they’d stack up. Yes, it’s true that the Jetta is a closer competitor to the Cruze, but in the absence of a Chevrolet Sonic Diesel we wanted something to pit against our long-term tester Golf. Besides, we already compared the Jetta vs Cruze.
Chevrolet’s Cruze made a big splash when it was first given the diesel engine just a couple of years ago – the Volkswagen Golf has been a diesel stalwart for far longer.
Both the Cruze and Golf employ a turbocharged, 2.0L direct-injection four-cylinder diesel. Chevrolet extracts 151 hp at 4,000 rpm and 264 lb-ft at 2,600 plus an extra 16 lb-ft on overboost from time to time. That compares well on paper to the 150 hp at 4,300 rpm and 236 lb-ft at 1,750 produced by the Golf TDI.
In practice, however, the story is slightly different. The earlier torque of the Golf helps it feel more punchy off the line. The Golf is aided in part by a 181 kg weight advantage over the Cruze Diesel – 1,393 kg plays 1,574 – but is aided a lot by the DSG transmission. The Cruze’s six-speed automatic is sluggish and feels like it’s constantly working with the car’s onboard computers to dull the 2.0L engine in the name of efficiency.
The DSG in the TDI on the other hand seems to bring the Golf’s slightly less potent mill to life. The shifts are faster and crisper, and happen later in the range. Miraculously that comes with no fuel economy hit. The VW still outperforms the Cruze with an EPA rated 7.8/5.2/6.5 L/100 km city/highway combined. The Cruze manages 8.7/5.1/7.1.
If the tiny men living in the computer boxes were just a little more permissive with the Cruze’s engine and tranny it would be a much livelier car. But they didn’t. The Cruze is a little louder and rougher running than the Golf too and so as it stands, I have to give this one to Volkswagen.
The Volkswagen Golf is a renowned driver’s car. Yes, part of that is because of the Golf R and the GTI, but that driving feel is present in the “less
