In this episode of *The Business Chop*, we’re joined by Jon Mest, an innovative technologist whose journey from Wall Street to startup success is nothing short of inspiring. With a career that began in the high-stakes world of M&A in the Tech sector, Jon transitioned into a developer and data scientist role before embracing a passion for sales and customer success. Today, he’s the mastermind behind Just Reach Out, an AI-driven PR software that’s revolutionizing how businesses connect with the media.

Jon shares how his platform is democratizing public relations, giving businesses direct access to journalists, bloggers, podcasters, and site owners, without the hefty price tag of traditional PR firms. He talks about his love for sports—having traveled the world to attend events like the Olympics, Wimbledon, and even all 30 MLB stadiums—and how his unique blend of technical and people skills has fueled his success.

Chop squad our guest today uses AI to help businesses identify relevant journalists, bloggers, podcasters, site owners, etc that would be relevant contacts to help them promote a story on their business. 

Jon is an experienced technologist that has worn many hats in my career. He started as a banker on Wall Street doing M&A in the Tech sector. Then transitioned into a data science / developer role at a big data and analytics company. Quickly, he hit the road helping to sell the solutions that he was building. 

Over time, Jon also held positions in sales, go-to-market, customer success, and product. After a stint in business school and helping scale a brand new startup, he now owns and operates Just Reach Out. It is an AI-driven PR software company that helps businesses craft narratives, build media outreach lists, and earn placements in top tier publications and to be guests on podcasts.
