I didn’t know that they have been selective about who they talk to. It does elevate them in my mind that they would turn down coverage from Dinkee. That bullhorn works well to gin up interest and speculators. It’s refreshing that an independent maker like them waves it away. I mean look at FP Journe, he feeds info to his “Guy” and it’s all over instagram every week. Speake Marin have got their own dedicated IG channel. Plenty of brands buy positive coverage. I applaud them. They have a keen sense of the type of client they want to do business with.

Great!

Interesting observations.

FPJ, in my opinion doesn't need to promote through anyone other than his own channel and Speake-Marin, now without the eponymous founder, probably needs to do as much promotion as possible to convince potential clients that they still have legitimacy with...
Sorry...

I don’t see a link to the article. Is it gone or am I blind?
