Michigan's Trusted Digital Marketing Partner
From Detroit's automotive innovation to Grand Rapids' thriving business community, Ann Arbor's tech corridor to the Upper Peninsula's unique markets - we help Michigan businesses accelerate their digital growth and dominate their competition.
Why Michigan is a Great Place for Business
Understanding your market is key to marketing success. Here's the economic landscape:
Michigan’s economy represents one of America’s most remarkable transformations, evolving from its historic automotive manufacturing base into a diversified powerhouse spanning technology, healthcare, and advanced manufacturing. With a GDP exceeding $590 billion, Michigan ranks as the 14th largest economy in the United States. Detroit’s automotive industry remains globally significant, with the Big Three automakers headquartered in the region, while Grand Rapids has emerged as a leading center for furniture manufacturing and healthcare innovation.
The state offers significant competitive advantages for businesses, including relatively low operating costs compared to coastal markets, a skilled manufacturing workforce, and world-class research universities like the University of Michigan and Michigan State University. Michigan’s strategic location provides excellent access to both U.S. and Canadian markets, with robust transportation infrastructure including the nation’s largest freshwater port system.
Recent years have seen Michigan attract billions in electric vehicle and battery manufacturing investments, positioning the state at the forefront of the automotive industry’s transformation. Combined with growing tech hubs in Ann Arbor and Detroit, Michigan offers exceptional opportunities for businesses ready to capitalize on this economic evolution.
Growing Sectors
Digital Landscape
Michigan businesses face a unique digital landscape shaped by the state’s industrial heritage and ongoing economic transformation. With over 85% internet penetration and growing mobile usage, digital marketing has become essential for reaching both B2B and B2C audiences. The Detroit metro area in particular has seen a surge in digital advertising investment as businesses compete in the recovering economy.
Local search is critical in Michigan, where consumers show strong loyalty to local businesses and “Made in Michigan” products. Effective digital strategies must balance broad reach with hyperlocal targeting, especially in distinct markets like metro Detroit, West Michigan, and the Upper Peninsula.
