About JBC:

Nine years ago, Jennifer Bett Meyer and Melissa Duren Conner identified a gap in their field of media relations — and acted on it. In 2014, JBC was born in New York City with the mission of creating a more thoughtful approach to public relations, and today, it has made good on that initial vision. Now with offices in New York City and Los Angeles, JBC has since grown into the premier media relations agency for fast-growing, venture-backed startups in industries spanning fashion and beauty, health and wellbeing, food and beverage, technology, social impact, home and more.

In April 2022, JBC added an entirely new service, launching our own in-house Affiliate Marketing division. We believe a brand’s earned media should work seamlessly alongside their affiliate marketing to generate results, and at JBC, we fully integrate our affiliate strategies with our media relations efforts to better streamline goals.

JBC is an agency of humans. We work in media relations because we’re people’s people, and we love to collaborate with our brand partners as they achieve your goals. We build meaningful relationships with our partners on the pillars of transparency and honesty, working to secure market share and a defining foothold within our brands’ respective categories.
