3 Beat Media was founded in 2004 by Jennifer Mattern as J.H. Mattern Communications–a small PR firm specializing in indie music PR. This specialization later expanded to working with other small (mostly online) businesses and other independent and creative professionals.
The company was re-branded to 3 Beat Media in 2012. It’s focus is now three-fold:
- Client services (digital marketing and PR, freelance writing, content strategy, editing, etc.–largely around digital marketing and thought leadership publication)
- Digital media (running blogs and other online publications, newsletters, podcasts, and more)
- Publishing (publishing books and e-books under the 3 Beat Books imprint)
Digital media is the current primary focus of 3 Beat Media.
