About this episode

Tresna Lee from Gemini Wine Bar discusses innovative strategies to attract customers in a competitive hospitality landscape.

With a challenging economic climate and competition as fierce as it’s ever been in hospitality, how do you stand out from the crowd and create unique events or offerings to not only draw in the crowds, but celebrate and emphasise the beauty of your offering too? Tresna Lee (Gemini Wine Bar) joins us to share her story, and the innovative ways she’s getting customers through the door. https://www.instagram.com/gemini_melbourne/?hl=en SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER FOR EXCLUSIVE ARTICLES, NEWS, GIVEAWAYS AND BEHIND THE SCENES ⁠https://deepintheweeds.us6.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=d33e307cf7100cf947e2e6973&id=d17d8213f5⁠ Follow Deep In The Weeds on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/deepintheweedspodcast/?hl=en⁠ Follow Huck ⁠https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/⁠ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) ⁠https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/⁠ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS ⁠https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork⁠ Deep in the Weeds is a food podcast hosted by Anthony Huckstep in conversation with chefs, food producers and members of the hospitality industry.
