Services
Sip More · Consulting

Your program,
elevated.

Sip More works with restaurants and hospitality groups who want their beverage experience to feel as intentional as the rest of what they do. Three tiers. One philosophy. No cookie-cutter packages.

01
Discovery Call

We start with a complimentary conversation to understand your venue, your guests, and what you're trying to build. No pitch — just listening.

02
Custom Proposal

Every engagement is scoped to fit your specific needs and priced accordingly. You'll receive a clear proposal before anything is signed.

03
We Get to Work

Once we're aligned, Mahlik steps in as your beverage partner — building, training, programming, or all of the above depending on your tier.

04
Ongoing Refinement

For retainer clients, we check in regularly, adjust based on what's working, and keep the program fresh season over season.

Three ways to work
together.

Tier One
Pour
Project-Based Consultation

Built for venues that need a targeted intervention. POUR is a single-scope engagement with a defined deliverable, a clear timeline, and no ongoing commitment required.

  • Wine list audit & complete redesign
  • Single staff training session (2–3 hrs)
  • One-time event concept & run-of-show
  • Wine pairing menu development

Tier Three

  • Full beverage program oversight
  • Vendor sourcing & supplier relationship management
  • Signature event series development
  • Brand collaboration facilitation
  • Quarterly strategic reviews & planning
  • Everything in BLEND, plus more

Philosophy

Scope first.
Price second.

Every venue is different. Rather than rigid packages, Sip More builds pricing around what your engagement actually requires — so you're never paying for things you don't need.

Starting rates are anchors, not ceilings. Final proposals are shaped by:

  • Venue size & complexity
  • Volume of monthly programming
  • Number of staff to train
  • On-site time required
  • Engagement duration
  • Travel & logistics
"

Every engagement starts with a complimentary discovery call. No pitch — just an honest conversation about what you're building and whether we're the right fit.
