The state spends tens of thousands (if not more) dollars to promote the beauty of Michigan and to bring people to visit. I love that Michigan native Tim Allen lends his voice to these and keeps the brand alive.
At DW Video we know your business does not have that budget. You need to promote your products, services and the people that makes your Michigan business unique. That is where I come in. My dislike of negative messages about my state prompted the creation of Buy Local Michigan. Telling real stories about the great people doing wonderful work in the state in which I live, work and play.
By coming in and Promoting Michigan businesses, communities and people, I love Michigan, I love promoting you.
Helpful tips for promoting Michigan Businesses:
1) Do local video marketing techniques for each video on ur Buy Local Michigan You Tube Channel..
2) All videos need a call to action to encourage people to like, rate, comment on and share your videos.
3) Promote on Buy Local Michigan website with content and tags directed at your business. We want people to have direct access to your site and social media sites.
4) Provide you the embed code to place the video on your website. This is all about you. Promote, Promote, Promote

Check out KJM Productions: http://www.kjmproductions.us
There are options in marketing your business and one is using Facebook Page as your website. From Facebook, “Facebook can help you reach all the people who matter most to your business.” Recently DW Video has been ask to set up a couple facebook pages for clients that wanted to use their page as their website. When using Facebook Page as your website here is what we did and it is really easy.
First get your domain name. For the Morley Celebration on the Pond we purchased: celebrationonthepond.com and for KJM Productions: kjmproductions.us
Facebook provides a custom web address as well – “When you set up your Page, you can request a web address like “facebook.com/yourgreatcompany,” which makes it easy to find. To maximize the impact, include this address on your business card, website and other marketing materials.”

Visit http://www.celebrationonthepond.com
In both of these cases we used GoDaddy for obtaining our domain name. Went into each account and instread of direction the domain name to point to web host. We created a ‘forward’ to point to the custom URL on facebook.
For example: celebrationonthepond.com points to https://www.facebook.com/MorleyCelebrationOnThePond and kjmproductions.us points to https://www.facebook.com/kjmproductions.
Now these customers can put their personalized website address on their business card.
Now it is important to work the page. Be authentic, Be responsive, Be consistent, Do what works and based on your budget, Make successful posts into successful promotions.
