Grand Rapids, Michigan
Total Investment: $10,000 / month
Strengthening an Already Successful Marketing Mix
The opportunity is to add a consistent local digital presence
Western Michigan already has an established showroom and active advertising. Our role is to complement those efforts — not replace what already works.
Consistent Original Local Content
Professional video produced on-site in Michigan every month
Professional Campaign Management
Active management across every channel — not just content delivery
Dedicated Local Social Pages
Western Michigan Facebook and Instagram built and managed for you
Broader Digital Distribution
Blended network reach plus local market-specific campaigns
Retargeting & Audience Development
Website visitors, warm lists, and modeled audiences where permitted
Integrated Lead-Generation Tools
CRM, routing, follow-up visibility, and showroom traffic tracking
The objective is to fill the local content and campaign-management gap without replacing what already works.

Results Across the Texas Showroom Network
Local campaigns and blended audiences work together

We Handle the Entire Production Process

- Hot tubs and swim spas
- Product demonstrations
- Employees and customer testimonials
- Wet tests

- Write scripts
- Edit footage
- Format videos for each platform
On-site filming, planning, direction, production, editing, formatting, copywriting, and distribution are all included in the program.

The monthly mix balances promotions with long-term value
Suggested Monthly Video Mix

The mix remains flexible based on promotions, inventory, events, and sales priorities.
Local Presence with the Reach of a Larger Network
Each channel has a specific role
Dedicated Western Michigan Facebook & Instagram
Local promotions, events, showroom information, community engagement, messages, inquiries, advertising, and retargeting.
MasterSpas Direct TikTok
Blended initially — preserve established reach, build larger engagement audiences, test creative across markets, and avoid starting from zero.
Established MasterSpas Direct YouTube
Existing subscribers, search visibility, short-form and long-form content, playlists, and local calls to action.
Google Business Profile (optional, collaborative)
Local search visibility, reviews, directions, hours, promotions, and Grand Rapids-specific landing-page experience.
We Create and Manage the Local Pages
Western Michigan receives an active local presence — not just content files
Create and brand the local Instagram account
Review and optimize the existing Facebook page
Configure contact information, links, locations, and calls to action
Publish the eight monthly original videos and manage the content calendar
Coordinate organic content with paid campaigns
Monitor comments, direct messages, and route Michigan inquiries to local staff
Maintain consistent branding and manage the local Google Business Profile and landing-page experience
The Michigan Team Retains Full Access
Local staff can participate without carrying the production burden
Michigan Staff Can:
- Publish additional showroom content
- Add photos and Stories
- Share inventory and time-sensitive updates
- View and respond to comments
- Access direct messages and Michigan leads
- Coordinate promotions with our team
How Supplemental Participation Works
Staff content does not count against the eight original monthly videos. Participation is welcomed but not required.
Our team remains responsible for the professional content program — Mike's team is never on the hook for production, scripting, editing, or formatting.
Campaign Management Is the Core of the Program
Content creates value when it is actively managed
Managed Channels
Google Ads
Facebook & Instagram
YouTube
TikTok
Google Business Profile
Campaign Management Includes:
- Monthly strategy and promotional planning
- Geographic and audience targeting
- Campaign creation and launch
- Budget allocation and creative rotation
- Advertising copy and calls to action
- Retargeting and lookalike audiences where permitted
- Ongoing monitoring and optimization
- Landing-page coordination and lead-source tracking
- Monthly reporting and quarterly strategic reviews
We do not simply deliver videos and ask the showroom to determine what to do with them. We manage how the content is distributed, promoted, tested, and optimized.
Lead Generation Connected to Local Follow-Up
Michigan leads remain visible and accessible to the Michigan team
Included CRM & Lead-Generation Capabilities
- Lead capture and routing
- Direct-message monitoring
- Phone and text communication

- Follow-up tasks and appointment tracking
- Conversation history
- Showroom traffic tracking
- Lead-source attribution

- Speed-to-lead support
How It Works for Michigan
Michigan leads are routed to the appropriate local staff. The local sales team remains connected to the customer at every stage.
Our team provides campaign strategy, technology, visibility, and follow-up structure — the showroom closes the sale.
Connected TV Remains Part of the Overall Strategy
But where people actually watch video has fundamentally shifted
Western Michigan's existing Connected TV coverage is a strong foundation. The data below shows why layering in YouTube and social video is no longer optional — it's where the audience already is.
#1 on Every TV Screen
YouTube's share of ALL U.S. TV watch-time (Nielsen, May 2026)
Streaming Now Dominates TV
Streaming's share of total U.S. TV usage (Nielsen, May 2026)
Social Video on the Big Screen
Social video's share of all TV viewing (Parks Associates, 2025)
More Than Pay TV or Broadcast
Average weekly time watching social video on TV (Parks Associates, 2025)
Social Beats TV for Attention
Weekly time on social media vs. 10h 15m watching TV including streaming (We Are Social/Meltwater, 2025)
Promotional Timing
Coordinate campaign windows across channels
Creative Themes
Align messaging and visual language
Calls to Action
Consistent direction to the Michigan landing page
Retargeting
Capture CTV-aware audiences across social and Google
Performance Reporting
Unified visibility across owned and partner channels
Connected TV is acknowledged as part of the overall marketing plan but is not included as an additional service in this proposal because it is already in place.
