At Wine Australia, the people at the Wicked Wines stand handed out transfer tattoos to young people who stuck them on their bare arms. Websites appeal to young people and interactivity, such as a competition, gets them involved. Luna has a potentially lewd ditty around the neck of the bottle. The buyer is invited to fill in the gaps. Technology is also important.

The quality had to be questionable if the label was multi-colored or the bottle oddly shaped.
