Note that I am the one who actually moved this from AfC to the mainspace. The https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=ThirdLove&type=revision&diff=824120639&oldid=823916076 original version was declined for reading like an advertisement and rightfully so. The https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=ThirdLove&type=revision&diff=825309576&oldid=825309472 resubmitted version had removed quite a bit of the promotional copy. I also did https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=ThirdLove&type=revision&diff=826385975&oldid=825309576 some cleanup on the page before approving it, including removing a Forbes reference from a contributor as opposed to staff writer. I don't see issues with advertising as it basically talks about the company history. I conducted  prior to moving it live and there are many references which qualify including https://books.google.com/books?id=J6VBDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA62&dq=%22ThirdLove%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjYrpK9gMzZAhXEt1MKHcWzCiMQ6AEINTAC#v=onepage&q=%22ThirdLove%22&f=false four https://books.google.com/books?id=XY9kDgAAQBAJ&pg=PT92&dq=%22ThirdLove%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjYrpK9gMzZAhXEt1MKHcWzCiMQ6AEIOzAD#v=onepage&q=%22ThirdLove%22&f=false book https://books.google.com/books?id=M0jiDQAAQBAJ&pg=PT184&dq=%22ThirdLove%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjYrpK9gMzZAhXEt1MKHcWzCiMQ6AEILzAB#v=onepage&q=%22ThirdLove%22&f=false references, including https://books.google.com/books?id=svJFDwAAQBAJ&pg=PT105&dq=%22ThirdLove%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjYrpK9gMzZAhXEt1MKHcWzCiMQ6AEIQTAE#v=onepage&q=%22ThirdLove%22&f=false one that is a case study. There is also https://www.forbes.com/sites/clareoconnor/2014/02/10/want-a-bra-that-fits-perfectly-this-billionaire-backed-app-helps-with-just-your-iphone/#6e15b65a36b0 this from a Forbes staff writer (note that I did not include the dozen or so other Forbes articles written by contributors), http://www.chicagotribune.com/lifestyles/style/ct-fashion-industry-plus-size-20170918-story.html Chicago Tribune, https://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/07/fashion/new-lingerie-designed-by-women.html New York Times, https://hbr.org/2017/12/yes-you-can-start-a-business-and-have-a-baby-at-the-same-time Harvard Business Review, https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/capitalbusiness/online-retailers-seize-on-long-ignored-market-women-size-16-and-up/2017/09/15/414d5c84-657e-11e7-a1d7-9a32c91c6f40_story.html?utm_term=.d51aaad18bf7 Washington Post, http://www.foxnews.com/lifestyle/2017/04/06/five-best-lingerie-brands-for-plus-size-women.html Fox News, https://www.shape.com/lifestyle/fashion/why-you-need-be-virtual-bra-shopping-trends Shape, http://fortune.com/2016/02/02/third-love-bras/ Fortune, https://www.fastcompany.com/4044021/new-moms-rejoice-thirdlove-created-a-nursing-bra-that-actually-fits-and-isnt-super-scratchy Fast Company (one of several), and https://www.today.com/style/thirdlove-explains-how-put-bra-correctly-tag-t117621 Today.com. I am also not including the many you will find from the Business Insider and many local publications. I realize that many companies have good PR departments, but not this good as there are hundreds of references that can be used for the article
