Daniel Vital’s Experience

  • Founder

    Good Wine Communication

    (Marketing and Advertising industry)

    January 2008Present (1 year 11 months)

    I founded a social network localized for the Italian communication industry named “Good Wine Communication” (www.good-wine.it). Wine is a metaphor for individual talent that allows me to localize talents throughout the country. Within this metaphor I’ve created the “sommeliers” team. This team is a group of high-level corporate communication professionals that allows me to keep and build new business connections. Developing this project I was able to familiarize with server management, Php, CSS, Html, SE platform, newsletters, community management and web marketing.

    I have tested several social network software and took the strategic decision with which software I am developing the Good Wine Communication project. I have installed the social network on Apache Linux servers, tested different web farms and made HTML an PHP changes to optimize the original software to the project needs.
    I've designed the logo and icons for the look&feel of the social network http://www.good-wine.it
    I also am responsible for promotion through web, BUZZ marketing, Google, Facebook, MySpace.
