You can get millions in reach … but did any of it actually generate sales?

This week Hive HQ's Jessy Marshall, the publicist behind launches for Naked Sundays, Bangn Body, Bouf and The Breakout Hack, breaks down why she ignores reach and impressions, why editors open her email before anyone else's, and how a gifted product ended up on Khloe Kardashian's story (and what they did next)

🎙️When a B2B brand should chase trade press over mainstream titles

🎙️How Indy Clinton went from paid partner to equity partner
