常見紅葡萄品種:
1. 赤霞珠(Cabernet Sauvignon)
赤霞珠是高貴的紅酒葡萄品種之王,是一種主要用於釀造葡萄酒的紅葡萄,同莎當妮(Chardonnay)一併為世界上最為廣泛栽培的葡萄品種 。
赤霞珠屬歐亞種,原產法國波爾多。赤霞珠在世界各地廣泛種植,是全世界最受歡迎的黑色釀酒葡萄,也是栽培歷史最悠久的葡萄品種。
赤霞珠香氣非常容易辨認,其酒香以黑色水果(如黑櫻桃和李子等),植物性香(如青草和青椒)及烘焙(如煙草,雪茄盒,香草,咖啡和煙熏味等)為主。其釀造的 葡萄酒年輕時往往具有類似青椒、薄荷、黑醋栗、李子等果實香味,陳年後逐漸顯現雪松、煙草、皮革、香菇氣息。由赤霞珠釀造的葡萄酒,受葡萄採收時果實成熟 度影響很大,當果實未完美成熟,會顯現更明顯的青椒以及植物性氣味,酒體結構豐厚結實,酒力強勁。
2. 梅洛(Merlot)
梅洛也是最受歡迎的紅葡萄品種。起源地是法國波爾多右岸,是法國最為廣泛種植的葡萄品種。單品種梅洛釀造的葡萄酒,通常有絲絨般柔和的口感,具有梅子氣息,其陳釀成熟速度快於赤霞珠。梅洛之所以受歡迎是因為它早熟、鮮嫩且多產,可以用來大量釀制美味而柔滑的葡萄酒。
梅洛的顏色比赤霞珠少了一些藍黑的色調,皮更薄,單寧更少。相比赤霞珠而言,梅洛的果肉更甜,果酸更低。 梅洛釀造的葡萄酒其香氣往往具有櫻桃、草莓、黑莓以 及桑椹的氣息。用單品種梅洛釀造出來的新鮮型葡萄酒,呈漂亮的深寶石紅帶微紫色,果香濃郁,酒香優雅,酒質柔順,早熟易飲。
3. 黑比諾(Pinot noir)
黑比諾是名貴紅酒用葡萄的皇後。是用來釀造紅葡萄酒的一個葡萄品種。原產自法國勃艮第 (Burgundy), 為該區唯一的紅酒品種。
其酒體溫柔清雅,其特點是年輕時清雅芳香,成熟時溫柔雅致,果味充盈而復合,並帶有較明顯的草莓和櫻桃的香氣。氣味是不濃不淡的果香系與花香系。常聞到的是櫻桃、莓果、梅子、黑醋栗、香料、玫瑰花或其他花香。入口的感覺則是相當柔和溫淡,優雅細膩。其釀造的葡萄酒年輕時主要以櫻桃、草莓、覆盆子等紅色水果香為主;陳釀後,又會出現甘草和煮熟甜菜頭的風味;陳釀若干年後,帶有隱約動物和松露香,還有甘草等香辛料的香味。
除紅酒外,黑皮諾經直接榨汁也適合釀製白色或玫瑰氣泡酒,是香檳區的重要品種之一,多與莎當妮(Chardonnay)混合,較其他品種豐厚且適陳年。
4. 施赫葡萄 (Shiraz / Syrah)
古典紅酒常用葡萄品種的王子,是一個被廣泛種植的釀酒品種,其廣泛程度可能只有梅洛和赤霞珠能與其相比。典型產區為法國北羅納河谷(Rhone)及澳洲(Australia)。
其釀造的葡萄酒屬中濃度酒體,在赤霞珠與黑比諾之間,風味與香氣跟氣候土壤等因素有很大關係,但是通常具有紫羅蘭、黑莓、巧克力、咖啡以及黑胡椒氣息,陳釀後出現皮革、松露氣息。西拉葡萄風味濃郁,單寧較多,通常需要很好陳年後方可適飲。
常見白葡萄品種:
1. 莎當妮 (Chardonnay)
屬歐亞種,原產自法國勃艮第(Bourgogne)。1951年由匈牙利引入中國,是目前全世界最受歡迎的釀酒葡萄,屬早熟型品種。是最主要的釀酒白葡萄品種之一。因為能適合多種土壤和氣候,所以在世界各地被廣泛種植。
莎當妮所釀的白葡萄酒多為幹型、中等或重酒體,但因產地和釀酒方式的不同而類型多樣、風格各異,其品質、價格也參差不齊。莎當妮多用於釀造白葡萄酒,用它釀造的白葡萄酒顏色多為淡金色。只有控制產量的高品質葡萄才可以釀制出優質的莎當妮葡萄酒。莎當妮可以呈現從帶有柑橘類水果到充滿熱帶水果和異國情調的不同風姿,也是香檳和氣泡酒調和成分中最重要的一份子。
2. 長相思 (Sauvignon Blanc )
原產自法國波爾多區,適合溫和的氣候,土質以石灰土最佳。主要用來制造適合年輕時飲用的幹白酒,或混和塞米雍 (Sémilion)以制造貴腐白酒。
長相思所產葡萄酒酸味強,辛辣口味重,以及熱情果(Passionfruit)等的香氣為主旋,酒香濃鬱且風味獨具,非常容易辨認。青蘋果及醋栗果香混合植物性香(如青草香和黑茶鹿子樹牙香)最常見,在石灰土質則常有火石味和白色水果香。少數長相思葡萄在釀制時加入橡木的影響,較濃鬱,在果香中夾雜著煙燻味,口感較圓潤。但比起其它優良品種,則顯得簡單不夠豐富多變。
3. 雷絲令 (Riesling)
著名的白葡萄品種,被認為是最重要和最好的釀造白葡萄酒用白葡萄之一,因為耐寒抗凍,是德國寒冷地區和法國阿爾薩斯地區的主要釀酒品種,在世界其它產區也不少見。所釀的酒種類多、變化大,從幹型到 甜型均有,也是釀制冰酒的主要品種。
以雷絲令葡萄釀造的白葡萄酒品種多樣,從干酒到甜酒,從優質酒、貴腐型酒到頂級冰酒,各種級別都能釀造。此外,酒精含量較低的特點,也使得雷司令在酒杯中呈現出悅人光澤與豐富香味。雷司令是一種富於變化的葡萄,含有多種多樣的果香,如桃子、柑桔等的香味特色和蜂蜜的甜香。更特別的是它的果酸與浸膏的獨一無二的結合,使得葡萄酒時而濃厚時而清新,各種甜度一一呈現,以此體現出雷司令的過人之處。

Spareroom 品牌特寫 (附件: 常用英國租屋網站)
談到英國的租屋網站服務,就不得不提及一下Spareroom的business model
Spareroom.co.uk的功能分為三大項: Rooms for rent, Rooms wanted, Buddy up.
1. Rooms for rent 房屋出租
這一項功能主要是讓房東和仲介在網站上放出租廣告。使用者可以透過進階搜尋篩選地區、房間大小、價位、室友的性別、年齡層、是否為學生、入住的時間、是否能抽菸養寵物、長租或短租等等。而其中最有趣的是,在英國找房子常常是好的deal,在廣告發布後一個星期內,很快就會被搶走。於是網站中提供了一個Early Bird Access的服務,讓購買這項服務的使用者能夠在第一時間跟房東聯絡。雖然一般的免費用戶,也是可以看到所有的廣告,可是只能夠跟廣告放在網站上七天後的房東做聯繫。雖然有些deal也是不錯,但就只能完全靠運氣了。
2. Rooms wanted 房客廣告
這一項功能主要是讓房客可以把自我介紹放在網站上做廣告。使用者可以在欄位中說明自己想要的房間是甚麼樣的類型、預算、大小、期待、特殊癖好之類的。這個功能主要是幫助房東和房客能夠更有效率地找到互相契合的彼此。有購買Early Bird Access的使用者,也會因此而在search ranking中排名較高的位置。除此之外,這項功能也同時影響到Buddy up,請看接下來的介紹。
3. Buddy up 合租找室友
這一項功能主要是讓房客們可以揪團合租flat,並透過房客廣告過濾山選出互相契合的室友們,再進一步地尋找想要的flat,向房東協調更滿意的價格或租期。
相對於英國其他租屋網站,幾乎都是以論壇的方式呈現,Spareroom使用了創新的早鳥通行證,產生了現金流的電子商務模式,個人覺得十分敬佩。

One more time 再一次,2013央視公益勵志廣告
)
This advertisement was released from China Central Television with the aim of its brand image. The concept mainly focus on encouraging people to be proud of being a Chinese and never give up. Life is so difficult and there’s no such a thing like rehearsal. Sometimes, we might feel that the opportunity would never come again and the entire world seems so dark and desperate. No matter how depress we are, we can always hear a voice from our heart: ‘One more time’. Give me one more time. I want to do it one more time. It’s getting better one more time. It’s for the success, for the dream, for growing up, for love, for perfection. It doesn’t matter if we eventually achieve the goal or not. What matters is the belief that we keep doing it one more time and never give up. This belief is inspiring and respectful. The more we try, the stronger we are going to be. We admire for any ordinary people who have the courage to do anything one more time.
生活沒有彩排,人生也沒有彩排。
總會有些時候,滿心期待換來的是失望、或者是不體諒。
環顧四週,似乎只有你自己在徘徊。
努力了好像還是看不見希望。
你甚至一度認為,沒有人比你更佳的不如意了。
漸漸的,你會開始不自信、不勇敢、不願向前。
然而,每當這個時候,你都能在心中聽到一個聲音,
清晰而見、再來一次。

Why Social Media Matters?
It’s been 10 years since Facebook was created. There are some figures that we must take it seriously. It is reported that more than 665 million of active users on Facebook everyday and over 500 million registered accounts on Twitter. In addition, almost 89% of businesses have a delicate social media platform as part of their marketing strategy and 75% marketers reporting positive results in the benefits from social media. Social media has become a lifestyle in this modern society. But why it is so influential? There are three elements we can refer to.
1. Data
In order to reach consumers’ demand and preferences, it is important to have a better and deeper understanding among them before making a marketing plan. Apart from the traditional database which records demographic information from consumers and their purchase history, data from social media enables marketers to discover all the content, time, and location people have written about brands, services or products. Moreover, all the data are profiled by the account registration, which means that marketers would be able to target audience more precisely, effectively, and efficiently. Also, exploiting the stream data from social media could be the best practices for Customer Relationship Management.
2. Audience
Handling a strong social media presence is an efficient way to create brand awareness, to maintain relationships, and to drive new sales. The more audiences we have, the more digital exposure we can achieve. Using social media to deliver instant information in the digital marketplace also creates a virtual one-on-one conversations among consumers, just like discussing in the real time environment. The engagement of consumer would also build a sense of belonging and recognition towards the brand itself; furthermore, brand reputation and trust could be constructed in consumers mind deeply. Apart from all the benefits mentioned previously, the brand community on social media would be able to boost the traffic to the company website and increase the search engine ranking considerably.
3. Profitability
The rate of investment on social media is always highly concerned among the broad level. Apart from other traditional media, the marketing performances on social media are measurable and modifiable. Moreover, it’s a free media. The ROI on social media has been seeing a higher return since a huge number of those impressions were not paid by company itself. It is reported that about 30% of P&G marketing spend goes to digital, social and mobile channels today. Digital allows a very effective and tighter way to customise a message to a consumer. In TV advertising that is going to everybody, but now the marketers can much more carefully target the content to a certain group of audiences through social media platform.

How eBay improve its user acquisition?
Last Friday morning, Mr. Sebastian was invited to a breakfast networking event, giving a speak of eBay's advanced user acquisition strategy. Mr. Sebastian is Senior Product & Partnership Lead at eBay Enterprise, being a key player in monetizing, optimizing and maximizing digital marketing strategies with an attribution, cross-channel marketing lens. Here are some perspectives Mr Sebastian figured out on his speech.
1. Silo effect
Silo effect has been one of the hottest issues in the recent years, in which an information silo is a management incapable of reciprocal operation with other related information systems. Nowadays, consumer's purchase process has been developed to occur on different devices. It could be mobile, tablet, or laptop. However, most companies still report their marketing performance in silo. In the marketing department, SEO, PPC, Affiliate marketing and social media monitoring are responsible for different teams. Every team wants to do their best, but the budget is limited. The lack of communication among teams resulted in the inefficiency of marketing strategy eventually.
2. Customer Journey on eBay
There are many ways to acquire customers. In order to improve marketing performance and efficiency, eBay proposed a customer journey to reallocate limited budget. The following figure presents how digital marketing techniques play different roles towards customers.
Organic search plays a role as introducer for customers when they firstly are aware their demands and searching on the Internet. Then customers will start to collect information after they have chosen some targets to buy. The customer will be influenced by the display of products, the opinions on social media, and the promotion information from emails or SMS, to make their purchase decision. This process averagely lasts for eight days. Now, the customer has already known what they want. The paid research strategy will play a role of closer to help them find the product quickly and accurately.
3. Budget reallocation of eBay's marketing strategy
Based on the previous marketing performance and efficiency, eBay integrated the information from silos and figured out the following proportion on its marketing strategy.
13% Organic search (SEO)
17% Display (Web page)
40% Affiliate (online PR, direct email & SMS)
8% Social (Forum, Social media, friends)
22% Paid search (Google AdWords, PPC)
4. Data collection from clicks
As for the technology nowadays, the research team can only track consumers' purchase process by clicks, which is to save cookies and location data to pinpoint the target. Using this data helps eBay to profile potential customers, to figure out what they might be interested in, and then provide specific promotion information directly. However, eBay still can not access the user's social media to see what discussion is carrying on. In addition, it is expected that track by impression would be the trend in the future. The research team would be able to measure how much and who might have seen the online advertisement.
To sum up, optimizing digital marketing spend is highly concerned among the board-level decision makers. Marketers are required to justify the budget, in order to reduce time consuming and effort. The communication among different marketing teams should be enhanced, so that the marketing performance and efficiency would be improved by the integrated digital marketing strategy eventually.
Sebastian先生在上星期五受邀至倫敦市中心的一個早餐會,並分享eBay如何改善數位營銷策略以獲取更多客戶。Sebastian先生是eBay Entreprise的資深產品合作領導人,同時以數位營銷策略的獲利化、最適化、極大化為人所推崇。以下四點將闡述Sebastian於這場演講提出的幾個概念。
1. Silo Effect 筒倉效應
筒倉效應於近幾年來一直是再營銷研究領域裡的熱門議題,其概念將資訊引喻為筒倉,隱喻不同部門的資訊就如一個個筒倉一樣沒有連結,亦謂著各部門間並未進行相互溝通並整合資訊。現今每一個消費者通常在不同的電子設備上進行購買流程,不同的裝置也增加了企業端了解客戶的困難度。目前仍有許多企業是依照不同的裝置及不同區塊的營銷策略進行成果調查,並加強各個營銷小組單位的效率,其中包含了搜尋引擎優化、關鍵字廣告、直效營銷、社會媒體營銷等等。然而在預算有限的情況下,是無法單純增強每個小組的工作狀況,缺乏小組間相互的溝通,也將造成營銷預算的效用低落。
2. eBay的消費者購買流程
為了重新分配營銷預算,eBay營銷研究小組提出了以下的消費者購買流程,來解釋各個行銷工具在不同的時間點扮演著不同的角色。當消費者在一開始意識到自己的購買需求,消費者將在網路上展開搜尋。因此,原生搜尋在這裡便扮演著介紹者的角色,引導消費者在網站上找到自己想買的東西。接下來,在消費者鎖定了幾個目標之後,消費者通常會透過產品的展現方式、社群與論壇的意見、以及產品促銷活動等等,來決定最終購買的商品。因此,在這個階段的營銷工具皆稱為影響者。最後,當消費者再次回到搜尋引擎尋找特定商品的時候,關鍵字行銷將扮演了結局者的角色,以幫助消費者更快速精確地找到商品並下單,而這樣的流程平均來說是八天左右。
3. eBay營銷預算的重新分配
根據過去的市場表現與經驗,eBay整合了各個營銷小組的資料,並計算出一個新的比例已分配預算如下:
13% 原生搜尋 (e.g. 搜尋引擎優化)
17% 商品呈現 (e.g. 網站與商品展示設計)
40% 聯盟營銷 (e.g. 博客廣告、贊助廣告、直效營銷等等)
8% 社會營銷 (e.g. 論壇、社群營銷、口碑宣傳)
22% 付費搜尋 (e.g. 關鍵字營銷)
4. 資料蒐集
儘管科技發展之進步,目前市場調查也只能夠透過每一個點擊來追蹤消費者的購買流程,而無法直接追蹤消費者的社群媒體以及討論內容。eBay用這些資料來側寫潛在消費者的偏好,並進一步提供消費者所感興趣的商品及促銷活動。然而,在未來可以期待的是,科技將能夠直接獲取消費者是否看過該廣告,進而點擊該廣告。這樣的技術將能夠使營銷者更精確地分析營銷策略的成果。
總體而言,如何最適化數位營銷的花費,已經成為管理高層高度關注的議題之一。營銷部門必須再一次審核預算分配,並減少每一次營銷活動的時間與資源的花費,以增加營銷成效。各個營銷小組間的溝通也必須被強化,如此一來,整合後的數位營銷策略將能夠帶來更大的市場效用與效率。
