Darlington Estate Winery

The marketing philosophy of Darlington Estate has been to build and project an image or uniqueness and class. Breakthough Corporation has been working with us since September 2000 and has over that time completely re-developed our corporate image, giving us a new face and direction.

Being a relatively small winery, we had serious doubts about spending money to upgrade our image but the results have been outstanding. We've enjoyed a profound improvement in our image and significant improvement to our profitability. In fact, since we began working with Breakthrough, we've experienced a 41% increase in turnover resulting in a very healthy business.

This also adds considerable value to the business if one day we choose to sell. We now attract not only more customers to our establishment but also a much higher caliber of clientele. The Breakthrough team is very creative, innovative and always sensitive to our needs. We now advertise because we get results, not because we feel compelled.

It has always been a pleasure to work with Breakthrough because everyone is friendly, down to earth and honest and everything is always on time. I can only speak highly of the quality of the work, the efficiency and service we receive from Breakthrough. We are very positive with our involvement with them and highly recommend them to anyone.
