A quick thanks to Dappered’s advertisers – June 2014

We like our advertisers.  They get it.  They get that you guys in the readership don’t want enormous ads, advertorials, or a site with so many ad spaces that it’s hard to find the content.  We try and keep the amount of ad space on Dappered limited on purpose. Keeps the site uncluttered.  And every once in awhile a business comes a long who wants a presence in that limited ad space.  And that’s awesome.  So we’ve decided to start publishing a monthly list of our direct advertisers to say thanks to them, and also so that you guys stay informed.

We’ve never taken money to review a product or run a giveaway, nor do we keep free samples for ourselves.  But to further our efforts to stay as unbiased as possible, we’ll be letting you guys know who’s buying ads from us, directly each month (as opposed to just running an ad network with tons of advertisers which we do most of the time).

So with that said, here’s this month’s list of direct advertisers:

• Birchbox Man

A Grooming and Lifestyle service, for $20 a month Birchbox Man will send you 3-4  samples of the latest men’s grooming products, along with a  gadget or accessory, all of which are tailored to your own personal profile. If you like what you get, you can buy full size versions from the Birchbox Shop, while earning points towards hefty discounts.

• ShortWear

Born out of frustration shopping for clothes as a shorter guy, ShortWear was built on the principle that everyone should be able to look good in what they wear. Their aim is to change the shopping experience for the shorter man, creating a platform where he can buy with confidence. Although current selections are limited, with time and feedback they plan to grow their offerings.

Many thanks to all our advertisers for supporting Dappered.com.
