Hey - from DC and my buddy used to work for the Beer Wholesalers Association as a lobbyist and I have a couple other buddies who lobbied for Wine & Spirits. I have a piece of advice that dovetails into a question. The advice is to go meet with those folk at those associations if you haven't already. The question is that I know from my buddies' experience at those places, there is a lot of political resistance in those industries to "changing things" - how do you intend to navigate around that political/attitude problem?

Thanks for the thoughts and we will check them out.

We aren't looking to change the way alcohol is distributed, just offer a tool to take orders. There are a bunch of distributors that have already built their own ecommerce ordering solutions and have found them to work well.
