The Perfect Gentleman Issue 1 - March 2016 | Page 3

From the Desk of #1PG Dear Ladies & Gentlemen, Welcome to the first issue of ‘The Perfect Gentleman’ magazine. We are are delighted you have joined us as we re-start our journey in bold new ways. It was just over 3 years ago, when we started our journey into making the world a more respectful, stylish & gentlemanly place. In that time we have had our fair share of ups & downs, challenges & successes. We have had team members & friends come & go and we have continually learnt along the way. So here we stand on a steps of a sweeping change to what we do & how we do it. We are going back to first principles. We are here to educate & entertain, we ran a quite successful blog for most of the previous years but now we think it needs a little bit more and here we are. Let’s start with this Magazine you are reading, we thought that it was better than re-starting the blog we would up the ante and make a monthly magazine. As we grow, the magazine will grow and we will add new contributors, more reviews, different items and hopefully more. Please do forgive our teething issues this month, as we get settled in, but we would rather have something we can work with. In this first Issue, we tackle Hair, Fashion vs Style, the Art of the Thank You note and more we are also including our interview with Jane Malyon from the English Cream Tea company, her tale about her gift is hilarious. We do hope you enjoy all our articles. But we aren’t stopping with the Magazine. No, we launch our weekly podcast series with my delightful co-host, James Marwood. ‘The Perfect Gentleman’ podcast will cover some of the content from the magazine but with a different perspective. If, that wasn’t enough we are launching an almost daily video series both through our YouTube channel & via Periscope. If you want to know our content Schedule, we have a page in magazine to guide you through the month of content. We hope there is something for everyone across all our media platforms and we want to hear from you our friends & supporters - do drop us an email ([email protected]) or contact through our social media channels. Once again thank you for joining us on this journey, we hope you will be informed, educated and most certainly entertained. Most Gentlemanly Yours, Zach Falconer-Barfield #1PG 3
