The agency offers media coverage guarantees, top-tier coverage guarantees and even a full money-back guarantee, and it has done away with long locked-in contracts so clients can start or stop as they need.

Q: What stands behind the work you were recognized for, and what inspires you most about it?
My goal was to create a PR and communications agency that goes above and beyond in all possible ways, and I have done exactly that. As a company, we’ve eliminated all of the most common complaints people have about PR, and turned getting media coverage into a good experience for everyone. We offer media coverage guarantees to clients, top-tier coverage guarantees, and even a full money back guarantee on all of this, which you won’t find anywhere else. We’ve also eliminated long locked-in contracts, and give people flexibility to start or stop as they need.
Getting clients consistent high quality media coverage has had so many positive impacts, including helping them show up consistently in AI search. I love being able to make a positive impact in shaping people’s credibility, reputation and overall company success, and making it a great experience for everyone involved.
Q: What is one thing you learned while building Jaya Jaya Myra Productions that you wish you'd known at the start?
I learned that you have to be aggressive in marketing. Even a top of the line offering won’t sell itself: you have to really work and put yourself and your success out there. Also, diversification in marketing approaches is essential. Lastly, not to listen to everyone else's opinions about how you should run things.
We go against every standard way of doing things in this industry, and because of it, we’re very successful. Being different is great, and having a visionary approach works.
Q: What's next for you and Jaya Jaya Myra Productions?
We’re continuing to grow and expand our team, our offerings, and the impact we’re able to make for clients. I’m super excited to work with more people and to help their brand growth in a meaningful way.
