Nonprofit organizations are the true heroes of our communities. Every year we collaborate with the ones who are doing the most amazing work. This weekend Ti worked alongside Secondhand Smoke Catering to support Light House Solutions in their annual Trail of Love event. This one day gives Christmas to families that might not otherwise have the opportunity. Volunteerism for the greatest organizations that deserve more attention is the foundation that American Business Engine is built on.

Plant seeds now for the fruit you want. In 2022, we built a website for Nicole Hart as she was running for city council in North Little Rock. We don't normally pick up political campaigns, but Nicole is someone who will unbiasedly help anyone and has a vision more a more prosperous city, so we were all in. She lost to her incumbent opponent for that race, but picked herself back up and ran again in 2024. She took the win and we are so proud of her but also so happy to see that North Little Rock just gained a hero in leadership. Congratulations to Nicole and to North Little Rock for this amazing accomplishment!

We spent this morning taking photos and catching up with GoHogue owner Chad Hogue. He's constantly on the run delivering for his courier service whether it's food from a distributer to a restaurant or furniture from a factory to a house, Chad is very difficult to pin down to one spot. We are happy to be able to talk strategy with our long time client and look at what 2025 has to offer in marketing. Need a breakdown of how you can best market your business next year? Let's schedule a consultation for an honest, real analysis that is easy to understand. #2025

We were lucky enough to be surrounded by clients current and past, as well as many other businesses we helped grow over the years. Congratulation, Brittany!

Marketing online changes fast. Sometimes it's a slight change and sometimes it's a flood. Over a million users have switched from using X (formerly Twitter) and started using Bluesky, a social media app that we have been tracking since last year. Should you use Bluesky for your marketing? In short, if your brand is built around an individual, then yes. If your brand is your company or a product, then no. BUT, you should still grab your account on Bluesky now so that if the growth continues, then you have an account with your branding to use. If you have a name like ours, something like American Business can be really hard to grab first (we did, btw). Follow us for up to date marketing advice for you and your brand.

Ti had the opportunity to teach podcasting to EAST students at Lonoke High School this week. He listened to them talk about their podcasting projects and answered questions about everything from content to equipment. These opportunities are the highlight of what we do, investing in the future.

The Family Fall Fest for Exodus.Life was beneficial for the whole community. Bringing together an organization that helps keep those who have lived experience connected with resources and the many diverse people that make up Jefferson County is important. Let's find a way to connect your organization to the people who want to support you.

This week we finished up the podcast studio for the American Indian Center of Arkansas and they are well on their way to producing their new show on recovery. We made recommendations on gear, set up the equipment to account for 3 camera angles and natural lighting, started the podcast hosting, and connected the rss feed to all the major platforms before training the host on how to use it all. If you are thinking about starting a podcast for your business or organization, we are the best partner you could ask for. We can help you set up in an office or you can use our studio. Reach out today and we can get you started.

The most valuable thing you can give to a nonprofit is your time. Home for Healing makes it so easy to do so when they host the most amazing events. Ti had the opportunity to help out at for his second year at the annual Monster Bash fundraiser. Home for Healing is an organization that helps families who have loved ones in the hospital with food and shelter. That gives them less stress to worry about and more energy they can focus on their family. We love volunteering and helping organizations with a great cause and action.

Podcasting has brought us so many opportunities to do amazing things. Yesterday, Ti recorded content for our client Jimmy McGill as he led Jelly Roll and Arkansas Governor Sanders through the halls of the local community corrections unit to give hope to the guys who need to see that success after failing is not only possible, but inevitable if they put the work in.

Collaboration with amazing people is why we never get tired of creating media. Level Up Recovery, Union Rescue Mission- Little Rock, and Serenity Park Recovery Center came into the studio to record some promotional spots. These organizations deserve to have the word spread about their programs and lives depend on them every day. We're very lucky to play a small part in helping spread awareness.
