When I decided to become a Wine Guide, I was a brand new mom. Traveling Vineyard was an opportunity for me to meet new people, make some extra money, and learn more about wine. Two years later, I have found that it has been one of the best decisions I have ever made! I’ve become part of such a wonderful community and have made so many amazing friendships. I can’t wait to see what the next two years bring.

10 years of sharing wine with people has been so much fun! My favorite part is when I finish the tasting and the guests comment about how much they’ve learned and that they found a wine they loved that they never would have tried before. It’s a wonderful feeling knowing I have helped someone expand their pallet.

I absolutely love being a Wine Guide! My job checks all the boxes for this stay at home mom, flexible, extra money and socialization. I love that I am able to get adult time and make money at the same time. I have built new relationships and reconnected with old friends because of my wine tastings. I hope to grow my business and bring others along on the journey of self-business.

8 years ago today I started my new wine adventure. I was never a wine drinker before but looked at this as a fun new opportunity. No regrets. The fun I’ve had learning about and drinking wine is only one aspect. So many new friends that I have made warms my heart.

Six years ago I saw a Facebook ad and wanted to attend a wine tasting, so I clicked on the link. However, when I started reading about becoming a wine guide, I decided to attend an event just to see what the job was like and 2 days later I ordered my kit! Now I have a “wine tribe” of amazing people across the country, and love discovering how much more growth and potential there is inside of me.

What started out as me joining to save on my purchases has now evolved into people falling in love with our wines. I get so excited to share new releases with everyone, and them being able to share it with others. I’m growing my customer base and it’s an amazing feeling.

Fun, Friendships, Flexibility, Fulfillment, Financial Reward. When I read these benefits Traveling Vineyard has to offer 1 year ago I thought well if I have to pick one..it'd be Financial Reward. I wanted to make some extra cash to supplement my part time job. I never knew the other 4 Fs would shine so bright in this business!! Fun..it's WINE!! It's so much fun and the learning tools provided along the journey make it easy. I have the best time at tastings teaching and bringing amazing wine to people. Flexibility...I work when I want to! It truly allows me to work when I want to and from anywhere! Friendships...I've met some of the greatest people being a part of this business and the support shown to me by my teammates, wine mama, and on up the line is incredible. I immediately felt like part of a team and with directors, leaders, and even a CEO thats accessible being successful becomes easier!! Fulfillment...this business has filled my life and become so much more than a side gig. It has evolved into a career goal I hope to someday reach and with the incredible support, I have no doubt I'll reach it. I've rambled on so I'll finish. The most amazing part of all I've said...I get paid to do this!! Financial Reward started as a motivator to sign up..and has turned into to a perk of all the other amazing qualities The Traveling Vineyard has to offer. I hope to work this business for years to come. Thanks for being so great!!

I am so glad I became a wine guide for Traveling Vineyard. It really is such a fun job. I am a full time teacher and mom of two young children. Traveling Vineyard allows me to take time for myself to have fun all while making money. I love the flexibility it offers and the wine is wonderful.

I celebrated my 2nd WINEaversary with Traveling Vineyard on January 1, 2017!! Becoming a Wine Guide has been such an AMAZING gift, I gave to myself!! I love meeting new people, making friends, teaching & sharing about my passion, contributing to our family finances, working around my family's busy military life & schedule and earning trips to beautiful vacation destinations!! Most of all, I am PROUD of me!! I took a leap of faith!! I work hard and I have accomplished so much professionally in the past 2 years!! It feels INCREDIBLE!! Cheers to another FUN, FULFILLING, FLEXIBLE, FINANCIALLY REWARDING, & FRIENDSHIP FILLED year!!

I became a Wine Guide for Traveling Vineyard in January of 2016. I was and still am the only Wine Guide in Fort Ashby, WV that I know of. I joined because I needed something that was going to give me a flexible schedule and still be able to make some money. Before I signed up to become a wine guide I was a preschool teacher at my daughters daycare center. My significant other travels with his work and we were only seeing him on the weekends. This was really starting to affect her the older she got. I quickly became desperate for something that would allow me and my daughter to travel with her daddy. I spent three months searching online for different ways that I could make money at home and finally after hundreds of searches I came across Traveling Vineyard. After checking them out for awhile I knew that it was meant for me. Not only does Traveling Vineyard give me the flexible schedule and financial freedom that I need, but I've also met some amazing people and have made many friends along the way. I couldn't be more thankful for finding this opportunity and I can't wait to see what else Traveling Vineyard brings my way.

I used to like a few wines, mostly sweets. My friends were booking tastings off each other's party & after showing up at ALL of them, I decided to join TV myself. :) Now I love a lot more wines than just the sweet ones, I get to have fun showing the wines, & watching people who never drink wine, discover they like it...a lot!! LOL Bonus is I get paid to do it!!

It's hard to believe one year has gone by! I met my Wine Momma at a work conference where she shared with me her "fun" job was being a wine guide. We clicked right away and when she mentioned I too could be a wine guide- I was all in! I hosted a tasting for her and immediately signed up and have never looked back. The company speaks to the 5 "F"s and I want to share my number one F is the friends I have met! We have a great company, awesome wine and fabulous friends! Looking forward to what the next year has in store!

Being a wine guide has made me realize that I can have a job I love! I graduated from college with an optimistic attitude and believed I could do and be anything I wanted... the "real" world has a way of squashing that optimism. When my husband and I decided we were going to start a family I decided I need to take control of my happiness again and I brain stormed and researched to find a job that would fit my needs perfectly. I am so glad I chose to take the opportunity to become a wine guide and although I can't contribute the amount of time I would really like to at the moment the beauty is that I can still be involved and growing and I can spend the time I am able. I see great things in the future and I can't wait until I am really able to take off with my business because I see such great potential. There is no other job I would rather do.

The feature of Traveling Vineyard I find most rewarding is the one time investment and lack of future additional expenses if you work your business. The fact that we do not inventory is huge. That we can EARN all our business essentials, including business card, is monumental. So many folks out there have to make a big sacrifice to make the initial investment, but knowing that you may never have to spend money that you have not earned and received first is a game changer, and quite a blessing. It makes Traveling Vineyard almost risk free, when you consider the 10 bottles of wine you get with your starter kit! This feature is one that I truly emphasize when talking with my guests and in casual conversations with people. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to run a "debt free" business!

This has been the best one of the best years for me. The amount of support we get from the cheerleaders, our wine mommas and grandmas and the whole team is amazing. I have learned so much and been having a blast! This doesn't even feel like work that's for sure!!

I just hit my one-year WINE-averseray with The Traveling Vineyard, and I could not be happier with my choice. I initially decided to become a wine guide for extra income and flexibility. Happily, I continue to be a wine guide for both of those reasons, but the new friendships I have made have proven to be an added bonus. I love that it allows me the flexibility to work my business when it makes sense for me and to earn extra income to help pay off expenses for my upcoming wedding. I have met so many INCREDIBLE people through this company (other wine guides, hosts, potential hosts and leads, and more), and I have thoroughly enjoyed making so many new friends. It certainly helps as well that our wine is AMAZING. PLUS, there are NO SALES QUOTAS! That's pretty much unheard of in direct sales. I can't wait to see what the next year holds for me and my Traveling Vineyard business!
