how it started
Jay Street Media was founded by Jarod Farchione, who spent 6+ years at Google mastering the world's largest advertising platform. His tenure ranged from consulting with hundreds of small businesses on their Digital presence to managing $500M in annual ad spend for Apple's brick-and-mortar stores.
Despite the scale and prestige of the enterprise work, Jarod longed for the personal connection in his community.
He founded Jay Street Media to get back to the ground floor—to work alongside the creative, hard-working entrepreneurs who build our communities, and to serve clients who are also his inspiration.
It comes down to pure love—for the food, the conversation, and the craft. To us, a meal isn't just a product; it’s a piece of art. It's an extension of a chef's dreams, culture, and work ethic shared across a table. those dreams together represent the backbone of any community.
But we also know the truth: this business is incredibly hard. We have deep respect for that grind. That’s why we bring an intensity to this space that no one else has. We use advertising as the engine and analytics as the differentiator to turn your hard work into packed dining rooms—work that has been recognized by the new york times.
You’re already wearing enough hats. Let us turn your marketing from an afterthought into the competitive edge that puts you in the top 1% of your peers.
