Longtime scribe breaks out on his own with PublicCity PR

Jason Brown spent years and years working journalism and public relations jobs for someone else, making them more money than he was bringing in for himself. Not anymore.

The Oak Park resident struck out on his own last year with his entrepreneurial baby, PublicCity PR. The firm is going after the smaller clients who need the attention of a good PR guy but not the services of an entire agency.

"I thought there was a tremendous need for someone like myself for companies that only have something like $1,000 a month to spend on PR," Brown says.

He seems to be finding the sweet spot. He immediately took on four clients and services about half a dozen today. They range from the The Sports Club of Novi and West Bloomfield to CRUST Pizza in Rochester Hills to the Amae Plastic Surgery Center in Bloomfield Hills. That's plenty of work for one man.

"With everything going on it seems like that will change soon," Brown says.

Enough that he is considering bringing in a number of other like-minded professionals to help him carry the workload.
