SmartClub Version 4 Now Available

PASO ROBLES, CA – The most feature rich and robust wine club software package, SmartClub, just got better. WineWare Software launches SmartClub Version 4, the most affordably priced wine club package in the industry. SmartClub 4 offers a single Member database for multiple levels of wine clubs, member types and bottle configurations. Additionally, the "super report generator" allows access and publishing of every bit of data in the Member database. Version 4 adds supports of PCCharge, automatic credit card processing software, in addition to ICVerify. 1000 credit cards can be processed automatically in 1 hour using SmartClub. You can even add a picture of your wine club member.

Gary Stemper, owner of Eagle Castle Winery and ex-mayor of Paso Robles, CA said, "we really like the capability of SmartClub to be able to bulk email our club members, particularly the Will Call Members during a shipment. We also use it as a marketing tool to send "happy" notes to our Members when they have birthdays and anniversaries, and to promote our wines."

Shirlene Barton, owner of Grey Wolf Cellars said, "Before SmartClub, it used to take us 10 days to process our 1700 Member wine club. Now, we do it in a morning, what a great product and we don’t have the hand written notes of Members data posted all over. The integrated SmartClub database is sophisticated and the purchase price was right."

Added Rick Quinn, owner of Opolo Vineyards, "we've been using SmartClub for over a year and it has performed magnificently for us as it has handled our growth from 300 members to over a 1000 members without a hitch. SmartClub saves us time and money."

Jeff Weidler, president of WineWare Software adds, "SmartClub is a completely integrated package and offers more functionality than any other wine club product. We listen to our customers and keep adding features. It’s fun and easy to use, as well as being the lowest priced product of its type. It is also a great marketing tool to keep in touch with your customers."

SmartClub is designed in one complete package to easily use the software if shipping wine clubs monthly, quarterly, annually or any time. The user-friendly icons are push button friendly and the entire product is supported by a complete on-line User Guide with screen examples for all functions and has topic sensitive search capabilities. Join the growing list of wineries using SmartClub to process your wine club and save a bundle.
