JIMMY STAR: I started a boutique public relations firm called World Star PR, which works with indie artists, musicians, filmmakers, authors etc… to help them get publicity and exposure for a very inexpensive price in the world of PR. We work on a month to month basis, no contracts, and our fee is only $650 a month, which is a very, very low price, and indie artists get better results with us than if they were working with a normal PR firm that would charge $1500-$5000 a month. Giving back to the community that has supported me for my career.
