Erin is the best ! Thank you for keeping the machines running and our best in class marketing material out on the streets.

Behind every standout brand in beer and wine distribution is a creative professional turning ideas into impact. From eye-catching design to streamlined marketing processes, these team members help bring products to life.

Meet Erin Bell, Creative Marketing Manager at Great Lakes Wine and Spirits.

📅 How long have you been with your company?
12 years

🚛 How did you get started in this industry?
I was looking for graphic design positions and found out about an open marketing designer position with Great Lakes through a family member who knew the marketing manager at the time. I was able to pass on my info and get an interview for the position.

⚡ What’s one project or accomplishment you’re most proud of?
I’m proud of how well our team has streamlined our process over the years. I try to stay as efficient as possible on the technical aspects of the job so more time can be spent on creating quality designs. We’ve found a good balance between delivering design work for our accounts and supporting other company needs, like price books and training materials, while still producing high-quality work on time.

✨ Favorite thing about working in beer and wine distribution?
There is always more to learn, and new challenges to take on. It’s an ever-growing and changing industry, which keeps it fun.

🍺🍷 What’s your current go-to beverage?
A glass of Sauvignon Blanc or a Loncaro Long Drink

Our very own Bianca !

Michigan’s beer and wine distributors combine creativity and collaboration to help brands grow, all while fostering a strong sense of community among the people who make it happen.

Meet Bianca Satryb, Social Media Manager at Great Lakes Wine and Spirits.

📅 How long have you been with your company?
1 year and 6 months

🚛 How did you get started in this industry?
My journey into this industry began during a summer in Oregon, working alongside my uncle at his brewery. That experience solidified my passion for alcohol marketing, and I worked hard to turn that goal into reality.

⚡ What’s one project or accomplishment you’re most proud of?
I’m most proud of seeing major brands repost my content. One of the highlights was Blue Chair Bay Rum—Kenny Chesney’s brand with over 157K followers—resharing a post, which was both validating and exciting. It reinforced my confidence in my content and helped boost our reach. I’m also proud of growing our account past 1K followers, with even more growth ahead.

✨ Favorite thing about working in beer and wine distribution?
My favorite thing about working in the beer and wine distribution industry is the sense of community. I enjoy forming real connections with our accounts and building relationships that extend beyond just work.

🍺🍷 What’s your current go-to beverage?
My go-to beverage is Lucky One! I love the no carbonation and the natural sweetness. I also love that they donate a portion of the proceeds from every can to support dog rescue organizations.
