🔥 IF PEOPLE DON’T KNOW WHO YOU ARE, WHAT YOU DO, OR WHY THEY SHOULD CHOOSE YOU… IT’S TIME TO CHANGE THAT. 🔥

You can have an incredible business.
You can be amazing at what you do.
You can have a powerful story, an incredible product or a service people genuinely NEED.
But if the right people aren’t seeing you, hearing about you and connecting with you… you’re leaving opportunities on the table.
That’s where I come in. 💗

For more than 17 years, I’ve built Rochester Woman Online around one mission:
BE SEEN. BE HEARD. BE VISIBLE.

And today, what I offer goes FAR beyond the pages of a magazine.
I work directly with businesses, entrepreneurs, women leaders and organizations to create custom marketing that actually feels like THEM—not cookie-cutter posts and not simply throwing an ad online and hoping somebody notices.

Through Rochester Woman Online, Conversations with Kelly LIVE, social media, events, branding, graphic design, magazine features, advertising, collaborations and my network of connections, I can help put YOU and your business in front of new people.

✨ Need people talking about your business?
✨ Want to grow your social media presence?
✨ Have an event that needs more exposure?
✨ Want professional branding and graphics that make you stand out?
✨ Want to go LIVE and let people meet the person behind the business?
✨ Want your story featured in Rochester Woman Online?
✨ Need someone who can connect you with the RIGHT people and create opportunities you may not have thought of?
LET’S TALK.

With an audience of 100,000+ across our platforms and decades of experience in marketing, graphic design, publishing, events and connecting businesses, I don't want to simply sell you advertising.
I want to find out what YOU need and create something that makes sense for YOUR business and YOUR budget.

And sometimes the most powerful marketing isn't selling at all.
It's telling your story.
Showing people who you are.
Building trust.
Creating relationships.
And staying visible so that when someone needs exactly what you offer…
THEY THINK OF YOU.

📞 I’m currently scheduling FREE CONSULTATIONS for businesses ready to grow their visibility.
There’s no obligation and no cookie-cutter sales pitch. Tell me about your business, where you're struggling, what you want to accomplish and what your budget looks like—and we'll talk about what I can do to help.

💗 Your business deserves more than being the best-kept secret in Rochester.
It’s time to get people looking.
It’s time to get people talking.
And it’s time to create some opportunities.
BE SEEN. BE HEARD. BE VISIBLE.

📩 DM me today or email [email protected] to schedule your FREE consultation.
Your story matters. Let's make sure people hear it. 💗

🥃🔥 THE STORY BEHIND THE WH***EY, THE MUSIC, THE CHAOS… AND THE PEOPLE WHO GAVE IT A HEARTBEAT. 🔥🥃

We are SO excited to unveil our latest Rochester Woman Online Magazine COVER STORY featuring Jen & Tommy Brunett of Iron Smoke Distillery!

If you think you know the Iron Smoke story, you may be surprised by what’s behind those doors.
This isn’t simply a story about building a successful wh***ey brand. It’s about a husband and wife who took an idea, colored WAY outside the lines, adapted when things didn’t go according to plan—and somehow created something much bigger than either of them originally imagined.

🎸 Wh***ey.
🎶 Music.
🔥 Creativity.
❤️ Marriage and family.
🥃 A little rebellion.
😂 A LOT of humor.
💪 And the determination to keep going when quitting might have been easier.

When Iron Smoke’s tasting room opened in 2018, Jen and Tommy envisioned something more like a Finger Lakes winery experience—come in, taste the products, enjoy a cocktail and maybe hold an occasional event.

Then opening weekend happened.
Hundreds of people showed up.
People started calling asking when the next band was playing and which food trucks were coming next.
And just like that, the plan changed. 😂

Iron Smoke evolved into a bar, tasting room, concert venue, retail and event space—and ultimately a destination where people didn't just come for wh***ey. They came to belong.

Tommy summed it up perfectly:
❤️ “We built the room, but the community gave it a heartbeat.”
In this cover story, Jen and Tommy take us behind the brand and get incredibly candid about entrepreneurship, marriage, raising a family while building a business, taking risks, crazy ideas, failures, sacrifices and the reality behind what people often see as “success.”
And there are some GREAT stories. 😂

Like why there’s a giant Iron Smoke logo on one particular glass window. Hint: according to Tommy, “That’s not branding. That’s public safety.” 😂

Or the surreal night Jimmy Fallon walked into Iron Smoke and eventually ended up onstage playing Tommy’s white Gretsch guitar with him.

But some of our favorite moments have nothing to do with celebrities.
Their kids, Cash and Jagger, practically grew up inside Iron Smoke—riding scooters through the distillery while Mom and Dad built a company. People have met inside those walls and later gotten married. Families have celebrated milestones. Benefits have helped people through incredibly difficult times. Musicians have taken the stage. Friendships have formed. Memories have been made.

And somewhere along the way, a wh***ey business became part of people's lives.

Jen perhaps describes their journey best when she talks about taking that first chance:
“There is never a right time, never enough money, and being courageous doesn’t mean you don’t have to be scared.”

And Tommy leaves us with one of our favorite lines from the entire interview:
🥃 “Bottles eventually get emptied. Stories stick around.”
THAT is exactly why we do what we do at Rochester Woman Online.

For more than 17 years, we have been giving local women, entrepreneurs, businesses, leaders, organizations and incredible people throughout our community a place to tell the stories behind what everyone else sees.

Because there is ALWAYS more to the story.
And with an audience of 100,000+ across our platforms, there is no better place to BE SEEN. BE HEARD. BE VISIBLE.

📖 Want YOUR story or business featured in an upcoming edition?
📣 Want to advertise your business to our audience?
🎥 Want to sit down with me for a Conversations with Kelly LIVE?
💗 Want help with marketing, branding, social media, graphic design, events and getting your business in front of MORE people?

📞✨ YOUR STORY MATTERS. YOUR BUSINESS DESERVES TO BE SEEN. AND YOUR VOICE DESERVES TO BE HEARD. ✨📞

For more than 17 years, Rochester Woman Online magazine has been about one thing at its core: giving women a platform.
But today, we are SO much more than a magazine.
If you’re a woman in business, an entrepreneur, a nonprofit leader, a professional, or someone with an incredible story to share, I want to help you take what you’re doing and GET IT IN FRONT OF PEOPLE.

🔥 BE SEEN. BE HEARD. BE VISIBLE.

Because having an amazing business isn’t enough if no one knows about it.
That’s where I come in.
With more than 35 years of experience in graphic design and marketing, plus nearly two decades of building Rochester Woman Online, producing events, creating partnerships and connecting businesses throughout our community, I can help you create a marketing strategy that is about much more than simply posting on social media.

💗 MARKETING — Let’s create a strategy designed to grow your visibility and audience.
💗 BRANDING & GRAPHIC DESIGN — From your overall look to advertising, social graphics, promotional materials and more, let’s make your business stand out.
💗 SOCIAL MEDIA & CONTENT — Creative campaigns designed to get people looking, engaging and talking.
💗 CONVERSATIONS WITH KELLY LIVE — Sit down with me and tell your story, showcase your expertise, introduce your business or take your audience behind the scenes.
💗 ROCHESTER WOMAN ONLINE FEATURES & ADVERTISING — Put your story and your brand in front of our established audience.
💗 EVENTS — Need help creating, promoting or coordinating an event? From expos and fundraisers to networking events, launches, markets and special events, I can help bring the pieces together.
💗 CONNECTIONS & COLLABORATIONS — Sometimes the person or business you need is already in my network. Let’s make those connections happen.

And the best part?
You don’t have to hire an entire in-house marketing department to have one working for you.

Whether you need help with ONE project or you’re looking for someone to become an extension of your business and help you grow month after month, let’s talk.

📞 I’m offering FREE consultations to businesses ready to do something different.
Tell me where you are.
Tell me where you want to go.
And let’s figure out how we can get you there.

✨ YOUR STORY MATTERS.
✨ YOUR BRAND MATTERS.
✨ YOUR VISIBILITY MATTERS.

It’s time to stop being your community’s best-kept secret.
