Schaefer Media & Marketing Celebrates 10th Anniversary by Helping Small Businesses Expand Awareness and Drive New Growth

Recognizing  the  challenges  that  small  businesses  face  every  day,  Schaefer Media & Marketing is using the occasion of its 10th anniversary to give back by  helping  to  position  its  fellow  small  companies  to  capitalize  on  an  increasingly  online and digital business world.

During  the  month  of  October,  Schaefer  Media  &  Marketing  is  offering  to  assist  members of the Capital Region Chamber of Commerce in expanding their marketing efforts  and  attracting  new  customers  through  the  production  of  a  high-­‐quality,  professional  company  video  that  can  be  used  on  websites,  social  media  platforms and other digital channels.

Small  businesses  can  take  advantage  of  this  unique  opportunity  to  create  a  memorable  company  video  –  to  include  on-­‐site  video,  professional  voice-­‐over, music, graphics and editing – at a special rate of $750, or less than half the usual rate of $2,000.

“We know the difficult landscape that small businesses face because we live it every day,” said John Schaefer, principal of Schaefer Media & Marketing. “As we celebrate our 10th year of providing creative marketing tools and services to assist companies throughout the Capital Region, we wanted to give back to the business community that has been so supportive of our firm. We couldn’t think of a better way than to assist our fellow small businesses in competing and succeeding in the technology-­‐driven marketplace of today.”

“Known  by  the  Brands  we  Build,”  Schaefer  Media  &  Marketing  has  gained  a  reputation  for  providing  award-­‐winning  creative  services  for  some  of  the  Capital Region’s  best-­‐known  companies,  including  Exit  9  Wine  &  Liquor  Warehouse,  Crisafulli  Bros.,  Bowman  Orchards,  Hudson  Heritage  Federal  Credit  Union, Professional  Fire  Restoration,  Mayfair  Jewelers,  Community  Care  Physicians,  Security Plumbing & Heating Supply, Roberts Auto Services and many more.

The offer comes as the use and importance of video content explodes, particularly on  mobile  devices.  The  latest  research  indicates  that  videos  on  mobile  devices  receive  nearly  three  times  the  engagement  of  desktop  videos.  In  addition,  half  of YouTube  views  are  on  mobile  devices,  and  social  media  sites  increasingly  support  videos, including the auto-­‐play features used by heavyweights such as Facebook and Instagram.

For  more  information  on  this  offer,  which  expires  October  31,  contact  Schaefer Media & Marketing at 518.533.9870 or john@schaefer-­media.com.
