Award-winning PR firm providing media relations, social media
and marketing strategies to Great Jones Street as the app rapidly
gains ground with fiction fans, education markets and publishing
partners
Clearpoint Agency, a public relations and digital marketing
firm, is collaborating with Great Jones Street, the leading short
fiction app, to promote the app’s expansive portfolio of
contemporary short fiction and communicate its value to new
markets.
Great Jones Street was launched in late 2015 by serial
entrepreneur Kelly Abbott and has grown to be the largest annual
buyer of short fiction today. With short fiction experiencing a
revival, Great Jones Street offers the perfect bite-sized
entertainment and welcomed break in today’s fast-paced world. The
app, with 5 stars on the Apple store and 4.5 on Google Play,
curates thousands of stories in every genre for fans to read,
listen or stream in 5-, 10-, to 15+ minute fiction bursts –
satiating appetites for premium fiction, beautiful aesthetics,
audio from writers, and a community of writers and readers.
“Kelly is a visionary, and Great Jones Street confirms his
foresight,” says Clearpoint Agency President Bonnie Shaw. “Great
Jones Street leverages the mobile phone as the channel to deliver
high-quality, bite-sized short stories that are tailormade for our
mobile culture. And the platform opens a direct channel to
publishers seeking to go direct to consumer (DTC) and open new
markets.”
Just last month, Great Jones Street announced a deal with
Medium, the publishing platform developed by Twitter founder, Eve
Williams, to feature lit, science fiction/fantasy, horror, crime
stories, as well as a new chapter each day from the historical
fiction serial, “Reversing the River” by Leslie Pietrzyk, from GJS
on Medium’s homepage as Lit from Great Jones Street.
