His publications reached audiences in many places, with titles such as Aspen Peak, Boston Common, Capitol File, Hamptons, Ocean Drive, Gotham, Los Angeles Confidential, Michigan Avenue, Philadelphia Style, and Vegas. These magazines played a role in defining luxury regional publishing and helped build his reputation within the media industry. By creating these publications, Jason connected to niche markets while allowing each magazine to reflect the personality of its city, as seen in editions for Miami, the Hamptons, and New York City. Under Niche Media, a custom publishing division was also established to produce publications for Art Basel Miami Beach, Wynn Las Vegas, and the Short Hills Mall on behalf of the Taubman real estate organization.
