Direct to Consumer
Direct-to-consumer (DtC) is the next best thing for wineries, breweries, distilleries, and even retailers. With the ever changing world, consumers have began purchasing to receive straight to their homes. Why not get rid of the middle man and take advantage of the growing need to receive goods at home? Not only are you fulfilling consumer needs, but you are also growing profits. While the licensing can be difficult for some, this is something we are able to handle for you.
A few of the things we help with:
Apply for new licenses
For every state you are wanting to ship direct to consumer you are going to need the proper licensing. Licensing is needed with every state Department of Revenue (DOR). We are here to apply for, and follow up on each license needed.
Renewing licenses
Once licenses are obtained, you will have to maintain them by submitting renewal applications at the renewal periods. We are here to take the stress of monitoring each license you hold. We submit the applications for renewals, and monitor each account in order to make sure you stay compliant.
Identifying changing laws and informing
With the dramatic changes happening in the liquor industry due to the national pandemic, and the consumers need to receive their goods at their homes, laws are constantly changing. We are here to monitor the changing laws, and inform our clients if there is a new law that could potentially impact them.
Submitting updates
Every change that happens, like a move or a new officer will need to be reported to the various agencies where you hold licenses. We are here to submit the proper documentation for you.
Reporting
Once you are shipping direct to consumer you will need to submit monthly, quarterly, semi-quarterly, or annual reports and tax payments to the states that you shipped in. We will maintain all your reporting and keep accurate records at your fingertips. For more detailed information on reporting see Sales & Excise Tax.
Obtaining, and maintaining all the licensing required can be quite daunting, but we are here to do all the work for you!
