We then sought out small business owners trying to get their businesses out there. It was easy to find a few great people to feature. Magnetic selected a few skilled and personable professionals with interesting stories to tell via high-quality video and photo content. Before all was said and done, we produced a branded content web series four small business storylines. We also took of advantage of these spots for the campaign and in social media to detail the experiences of a chef, barber, yogi, and leathersmith as they pushed their businesses online with Remixer.

Real People. Sharing Real Stories.

Each feature webisode communicates these individual stories, Remixer’s effectiveness and ease of use. We focused on each of our subjects focused in on their craft rather than the intricacies of building a website for their business. Startups need easy, that's what Remixer gave them... and online presence in less than 10 minutes. Additionally, we launched a microsite to house these stories and act as a promotional place to feature businesses and serve as a launching pad for people wanting to create their own Remixer site.

“ It’s always a privilege to be entrusted with creating someone else’s personal brand. In order to do so successfully, I think it’s critically important to understand who the person is on a human level first, and then to build up from there. ”
