Todd Snyder’s Celebrity Customer Origin Story

PR Campaign
Saturday 12th September, 2026

To mark Todd Snyder’s 15th anniversary, the menswear brand turned its celebrity history into a media story, revealing that Ryan Gosling and Matt Bomer were early customers before the label was widely known. The anniversary also introduces a Todd Snyder x Lagavulin capsule collection and campaign starring Ben Ahlers, extending the story into a current collaboration.

Why it worked: It tied a hard news peg (15th anniversary + exclusive first-look campaign) to an unexpected celebrity-origin anecdote that humanized the brand.

The lesson: Consider pairing a milestone or launch with a revealing first-time story from a recognizable insider, offered as an exclusive.

FAQs

What is this?

Every day, brands launch PR campaigns and the media covers them. We scan lots of different news sources and use AI to spot the campaigns behind the stories, and show you which ones are getting the most traction right now. Think of it as a live leaderboard of what's working in PR.

Where does the data come from?

Finchling is a news monitoring tool that analyses lots of news from across the internet.

Does this track sponsored posts, or is it earned media only?

It's built to only track earned media - we use AI to filter out anything that we think is a sponsored placement.

What does "ranked by coverage" mean?

It's ranked by the volume of coverage that talks positively about the campaign. We count the outlets covering it, then give a boost to campaigns whose coverage is positive, and those with negative coverage drop down. We're not weighting by outlet size or reach.

Why isn't my campaign listed?

If you've launched a PR campaign recently and it's not included in here, and you think it should be - drop us a note and we'll investigate.
