HOW IT WORKS:
At Painting & Vino, we believe there are several necessary steps to take to ensure a successful start up of your business.
Application process: To apply to become a Painting & Vino Licensee, you will need to first fill out the application form on our website.
Licensee Agreement: Once you are approved as a Licensee, you will need to review and sign the License Agreement. We know these types of documents are rich with technical dialogue, so feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns during this time.
Training manuals: Once you have signed your License Agreement, we will administer your training manuals. These manuals will include information on your start-up kit supplies, future supply orders, venues and the booking process, marketing materials and tips, and the Licensee Manual which will include guidance in all aspects of running a successful painting and wine business including administrative duties, operations, reports, and ordering.
Booking venues: The first step toward creating your calendar of events will be to search for and book venues for your classes. We will supply a detailed manual explaining what to look for in a venue and successful sales approaches to secure the right venues for your classes.
Creating paintings: We will also supply detailed information regarding our target demographic and what types of paintings sell out in our market. You will want to build a strong portfolio base for your first classes and continuously add to this portfolio as you go. The more paintings you have, the more classes you can offer.
Preparing for upcoming classes and the future: Now that you have your dates and your paintings, you will want to strategically schedule your paintings on your calendar found on the Painting & Vino website.
Marketing: Once you post your calendar, Painting & Vino will aggressively market your classes on social media, email marketing, and daily deal sites such as Groupon and Living Social (Licensees are not permitted to use any daily deal sites or promotional codes of their own for marketing; Painting & Vino handles all relationships with daily deal vendors). Although Painting & Vino handles a large majority of the marketing, you as a Licensee can make a big difference in promoting your classes.
First Class: Before you dive in to your first class, we ask that you create a lesson plan for your first painting outlining the steps and the timing for each step as you would instruct them to a class. As part of your training, you will present your painting, introductory speech, and lesson plan to staff members of Painting & Vino. And the rest is history! Once you have a few classes under your belt, they will begin to come second nature to you.
As your business thrives, you will continue to stock your inventory, build your portfolio, and add venues to your location. The opportunities are endless, and with the right ambition, this can be an extremely profitable venture for a self-motivated and hard working individual!
FAQ
A License Agreement allows you to operate your own business under our name and trademark. You are confidentially given access to our standard operating procedures and business practices in order to help guide you in running a successful business. As a Licensee to Painting & Vino, you will receive guidance and training along the way in order to maintain our quality and standards as you run your business.

It is preferred that you have artistic talent, but if you plan to hire your own artists, it is not necessary.
Unlike many paint and sip businesses; Painting & Vino offers you all of the benefits of running your own business, without the upfront costs! Many paint and sip industries require expensive franchise costs including buy-ins and studio opening costs. At Painting & Vino, there are no upfront costs and no studio costs. We partner with local restaurants and bars completely eliminating the overhead involved with renting or owning a studio space, which means, more money in your pocket!
Many customers enjoy the diversity of new restaurant locations, and scattered restaurant locations also expand your reach. Not only do you benefit from no upfront costs and a larger reach, but we supply you with intensive training manuals and videos that completely prepare you not only on an artistic level, but on a business level as well. Our training manuals cover everything from start to finish with expert advice involving operations, management, quality, expansion, and growth.
