Leadership Creed
At Wayne Media, we lead by two pillars: family over business and employees come first. We believe the most important work happens at home, and when our team is supported, they show up stronger for our clients. Leadership means protecting these priorities, living them out daily, and setting the standard for how we work and grow together.

More than marketing™
Our process for helping you win.
Onboard
Where all great things start: The beginning! Our team of experts explore your company, industry, goals and more! Typical onboarding lasts 15 to 45 days.
Execute
We take all of the access, strategy, collaboration, and creative efforts and put it all to work. Goals are confirmed and baseline KPIs are tracked.
Refine
Set and forget? Not here. We look at what’s working, what can be improved, and how to continue to take your company to the next level.
Reload
It’s important that our company stays up to speed with your initiatives. Objectives evolve in a company and so should your marketing. We are always looking at what’s next.
Platforms that matter.
Never be married to one platform. Our team focuses on the platforms that are relevant and will give your company the best return. From 2005 to 2008 MySpace was the king of the digital jungle, if you would’ve put all your eggs in the MySpace basket, well, you wouldn’t have any eggs left. These are some of our primary platforms. Not all of them are great for every business. Can’t decide? That’s what we are here for.

Creative Agency
+ Podcast Studio
Since the beginning, our company philosophy has been to only work in areas that we can actually meet with our clients. It’s been really important to have that relationship with our clients. It’s better for everyone involved. Also, we’re the only creative agency in Michigan that has both an in-house marketing team and a full-service podcast studio. Neat, huh?

A better way to create.
When I first started out, there was a seemingly never-ending amount of marketing companies that over-promised and under-delivered. They would tell customers that they’d “get you to the #1 spot on Google” or “get you a 10-to-1 return on your money”. Those tactics never sat well with me because they were blind applications. What I mean by that is every small business ought to have a unique strategy that fits their business. With that comes a unique ROI. No two businesses are alike, so promising a blanket return always seemed off to me.
I created Wayne Media because I knew that small businesses deserved better from the agency that serves them. I started with the tenet that we would be 100% transparent and only work with businesses that want to grow meaningfully. The best way to grow is if both parties are collaborative, communicative, and willing to learn.
In the first year of our business, I did a podcast that took an insider look at our company. I discussed the clients we lost, the money we made, the lessons we learned, and where I hoped our future would take us. In the beginning, I had a lot to figure out and a lot to learn. Every day seemed like a directional change in the company, but the team stayed true to our tenents of transparency and working with businesses that trust our process and want to grow. As I write an update to this in 2024, we’ve grown so much and that’s a direct result of the clients we represent growing. I truly believe we have a top-shelf team of consultants, strategists, and industry experts who can help your business get to the next level.
The only question I have for you is, when should we meet?
