It’s not uncommon for many companies to have a flagship product. These items are usually the bread and butter of the sales, reeling in the majority of customers. But, other companies can’t survive on product alone, and nearly all businesses will have a secondary line or item that helps support the business. These secondary items should always be marketed in a spotlight, never in the shadow of the main items.
This model has been especially true with wineries.
According to Forbes, many vintners’ best wines are their “second labels.” While in the labeling industry, primary and secondary labels refer to the labels on the front and the one on the back, with wine it refers to a vintner’s backup line. Rather than taking the same recipe of wine for the winery’s flagship line and bottling it with a different label, these wine-makers will use different fruit or aging processes while still growing the grapes from the same soil and water. This allows them to test the grounds for their next flagship product.
Many times, these second labels are made with leftover fruits, or those that didn’t quite make the cut for the premium product. Regardless, they still receive the same amount of attention, but come from a much more varied production process.
As such, these products will typically be treated in their own light. It’s not uncommon for companies to put out a flagship product and a secondary one to help support sales during any down time and appeal to a wider audience. But it’s critical that these products are branded uniquely and come adorned with custom made signs that separate it from the flagship product while effectively creating a niche for itself.
