Demand Generation for Craft Breweries

{"faqs":[{"answer":"Worqd builds demand generation campaigns around your actual offers — new releases, events, tours, food pairings — and puts them in front of local buyers on Google, Meta, and TikTok with landing pages designed to convert. Instead of cutting prices, we grow the top of your funnel and pair it with fast follow-up that turns interest into booked visits and calls.","question":"How can a brewery get more taproom visitors without discounting beer?"},{"answer":"Our AI SDRs and voice agents answer, qualify, and book every inquiry in under 60 seconds, 24/7 — including after-hours and weekends. Calls can be handed to a real person with full context, and everything runs on your calendar and your rules, so nothing slips through during a Friday rush.","question":"What happens to inquiries that come in after hours or during a busy shift?"},{"answer":"Yes. Our pipeline recovery service reactivates the contacts already in your CRM — past attendees, lapsed regulars, old inquiries — and turns them back into booked calls. It works with your existing CRM, no platform switch, and you only pay for the conversations that come back.","question":"We already have a CRM and a list of past event attendees. Can you work with that?"},{"answer":"We start with a free growth call to find the bottleneck in your buyer, offer, channels, and response process. Once the plan is built, paid campaigns and outreach can start producing inquiries within days of launch — SEO compounds over months. From there we test what matters, drop what doesn't, and scale what works.","question":"How fast will we see results, and what does the process look like?"},{"answer":"Most breweries juggle separate vendors for ads, creative, and follow-up — fragmented, expensive, and hard to measure. Worqd is one retainer-style growth partner: one plan, one report, no vanity metrics. Our AI SDRs deliver a claimed 4–7x conversion lift over unmanaged follow-up at 70–lower cost per qualified conversation than a traditional SDR team, and we price against the results that matter to you, not the hours we log.","question":"How is Worqd different from hiring a marketing agency or an in-house SDR?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Book a free growth call","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"We find the bottleneck — your buyers, offers, channels, response process, and data — before touching anything.

SKU rationalization is accelerating as retailers consolidate shelf space, and rising ingredient costs squeeze margins on every barrel.
