As the co-founder of New York’s Awestruck Ciders, Patricia Wilcox knows a thing or two about the challenges of building – and bootstrapping – a successful alcohol brand. With her latest article, she’s pulled the curtain aside on some of the less-magical sides of organic social media. Today, we talk with her about what wine brands can do better.
