Chicago-based. Globally connected. Built on strategy, relationships, and results.

We don’t chase attention. We build authority.

The Publicity Collective is a Chicago-based boutique PR agency with global reach, specializing in business, lifestyle, wellness, and emerging brands. What began as a founder-led vision has evolved into a globally connected media force — built on strategic relationships, editorial instinct, and a commitment to meaningful visibility. We partner selectively with brands and leaders we genuinely believe in — from founders and authors to innovators and industry experts — crafting narratives that position them at the forefront of their fields. From top-tier media placements and podcast visibility to speaking opportunities and strategic partnerships, every campaign is designed with intention and built for long-term impact. Backed by nearly 75 years of combined senior-level experience, we don’t chase attention.

Why The Publicity Collective?

We Craft Stories That Create Impact

Amanda Rumore is the Founder and CEO of The Publicity Collective, a boutique PR and media strategy firm known for building story-led visibility for founders, authors, and industry experts. With more than two decades of experience spanning media, publicity, and brand strategy, Amanda is known for transforming ideas into influence — helping clients secure meaningful media coverage, expand their authority, and build platforms that last far beyond a single placement.

Amanda began her career at the Grammys, soon became a Hollywood publicist, and eventually went on to work in-house for Tony Robbins, giving her an early foundation in high-impact storytelling, personal brand development, and audience-driven visibility. Those experiences continue to shape her approach today: strategic, intuitive, and rooted in helping clients show up with clarity and credibility.

In addition to leading The Publicity Collective, Amanda is the creator and host of two upcoming digital talk shows on This Is It Network focused on modern leadership, resilience, and identity-driven success. In 2018, she survived a near-fatal 40-foot fall while hiking near an energy vortex in Sedona — a life-altering experience that deepened her perspective on empathy, resilience, and the kind of leadership that truly endures.

As a wife, mother, and entrepreneur, Amanda brings a grounded and deeply human lens to her work. She is often sought out for her insights on entrepreneurship, media strategy, modern motherhood, and the evolving role of emotional intelligence in leadership.
