Jonnum Media to Provide Content for 6D Helmets

Powersports-focused brand-publishing shop Jonnum Media has begun a new arrangement providing services including website content and brand consultation for pioneering helmet manufacturer 6D. 

Program will educate, inform consumers through the helmet brand’s channels

LONG BEACH, Calif. (January 1, 2018) – Powersports-focused brand-publishing shop Jonnum Media has begun a new arrangement providing services including website content and brand consultation for pioneering helmet manufacturer 6D. Through the agreement, Jonnum Media will leverage its deep experience in powersports, cycling, and publishing to create unique, informative content for 6D’s website and other channels.

Called "Headspace," the content program is inspired by 6D’s track record of innovation. It will endeavor to deliver readers information about not only 6D products and projects, but also more general topics like brain protection and helmet technology. In addition, Jonnum Media will do consultation for 6D in the areas of branding, marketing, and PR.

“When I founded this company last year, I made a short list of powersports dream brands I would love to work with, and honestly, 6D was near the top of that list,” said Jonnum Media Founder Chris Jonnum. “One key to creating interesting content is having stimulating topics around which to base it, and 6D is blessed with a nearly endless supply of authentic, appealing narratives about its products, company, and category. For years I’ve admired 6D’s technological vision and leadership, and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to serve and grow its audience with significant, engaging storytelling.”

“As someone who used to work in publishing myself, I recognize the role that quality content can play in growing a brand, and I’ve long had a goal of doing that with our company,” said 6D Cofounder and CEO Bob Weber. “I’ve known Chris since working with him in the mid-’90s, and his agency understands our genuine passion for advancing brain protection through innovative application of technology. Through this partnership, we anticipate informing and educating the market about topics that are important to us.”

Chris Jonnum Launches Brand-Publishing Shop

Powersports industry veteran Chris Jonnum announced today the launch of a brand-publishing shop specializing in content related to motorcycles, ATVs and side-by-sides.

Jonnum Media to specialize in powersports content, communications

LONG BEACH, Calif. (February 1, 2017) – Powersports industry veteran Chris Jonnum announced today the launch of a brand-publishing shop specializing in content related to motorcycles, ATVs and side-by-sides.

Organizations are discovering the effectiveness of storytelling, but while the powersports realm boasts a rich trove of captivating storylines, marketers haven't always successfully related these narratives in compelling ways. Jonnum Media will leverage its unique position at the intersection of powersports experience and content expertise to help brands of all sizes grow customer awareness, engagement and loyalty.

During a career that has spanned over two decades in the powersports field, Chris Jonnum has served in editorships with Road Racer X and Cycle News, as MotoGP Press Officer for Ducati Corse and most recently as Powersports Director for Dispatch Communications. In the latter role, he was charged with establishing a powersports division, bringing in clients including American Honda and Dainese North America, and directing and executing the agency’s powersports-related work. Jonnum has also authored award winning books on 2006 MotoGP World Champion Nicky Hayden, the Ducati Museum and the history of Alpinestars.

Everyone loves good storytelling, and powersports enthusiasts even invented their own word for it—bench racing,” Jonnum said. “There’s nothing I enjoy more than creating unique, relatable, strategic content programs, and I’m excited to enable powersports brands to effectively communicate their messages through multiple platforms, including digital, video, social media and traditional media.
