You’ve finally done it - opened your bar, launched your spirit, won your first cocktail competition. So now what do you do? Time to call today’s guests! Since the moment I met them, Alex Chatwin and Alex Irving, Co-Founders of LX PR, have been Lush Life’s number-one fans, and it is such a privilege to have them on the program with me.  These women have grown their company to be one of the most respected drinks PRs not only in London but all over the world. Today, they share the story of how they became LX, as well as give some great tips for anyone starting a new brand. So if you are a new bar or a spirit, this episode is for you!
