Conclusions• The Inaugural Napa Valley Tweetup played an important
role in lifting awareness and Share of Voice for Robert Mondavi Winery
• With less than two months to organize and market the event, the heretofore unknown Napa Valley Tweetup presented by Robert Mondavi Winery dominated Share of Voice when compared to other, well-known events
• By creating more “fuel for the fire” via the content distribution network, the Napa Valley Tweetup retains Share of Voice post-event and therefore enhances awareness for the Robert Mondavi Winery Brand
