He has built brands from nothing, with next to nothing, just by understanding a few basic rules. The ‘Scrapbook Chronicles’ newsletter has become a cult offering from his company, the Hiut Denim Company. Its open rate exceeds almost any standard. It is one of those rare newlsetters that people actually look forward to receiving. Hiut Denim regularly receive gifts through the post thanking them for sending it out. And it has delivered results. It has grown the company by 25 per cent each year for the last three years. And each year for the last three years, the company has turned a profit. Before starting Hiut Denim in his hometown of Cardigan in Wales, David worked at Saatchi and Saatchi, and then built howies into one of the most influential active sports brands of the last decade. After selling howies to Timberland, he co-founded The Do Lectures. Voted in the top ten ideas festivals in the world by The Guardian, it now takes place in West Wales, California and Australia. David has spoken at Apple, Google, Red Bull amongst others. In 2010 he self-published The Path of a Doer. In 2014 he published Do Purpose: Why brands with a purpose do better and matter more (Do Books).
