Jacobs Media and jacapps taps Chris Brunt join their teams as Director of Digital and Revenue Generation. He has deep experience in radio programming, digital content creation and served as the Digital Sales Manager at Beasley Media in Detroit. During his time at Beasley (and prior to that, Greater Media Detroit), Brunt made his mark in the development of websites, audio and video streaming, podcasts and social media channels.

"Over the past forty years, we have constantly adjusted and upgraded our services to adapt to our clients' needs," remarked Jacobs Media President Fred Jacobs. "Today, the big need of our clients across both of our companies is digital revenue solutions. Chris is like the 'Swiss Army Knife' of digital - he's a revenue generation expert, and he understands everything from programming to programmatic."

"Chris will be developing revenue strategies as well as opportunities for our mobile app clients to broaden their reach," noted jacapps Chief Operating Officer Bob Kernen. "While jacapps clients love our versatile mobile platform, we are now going to take things up a notch and help them generate even more revenue."

Concurrent with Chris' arrival is the announcement that Seth Resler will be leaving Jacobs Media later this month. Jacobs Media's Vice President/General Manager Paul Jacobs stated, "Seth has developed interests he wants to pursue, and we support him in this endeavor. As opportunities arise, he may serve as a consultant to Jacobs Media in the future."
