“it felt great to watch someone articulate, to A T, our spirit and our tone but in ways we never would have thought of.”

– Wil Reynolds, Founder Seer Interactive 

Microfame media

In a perfect world, ideas would rise and fall on their own merits. But it’s not a perfect world. If you want your message to reach a large audience, you need a presence and a platform that shines. You need to become the go-to source for keynote talks, interviews, guest spots, and source quotes. You need to become a niche celebrity.

At MicroFame Media, we have reverse engineered what the most successful niche celebrities have in common. Armed with this knowledge, we take our clients through a step-by-step process that turns each one of them into the go-to expert in their industry.

Michael F. Schein and his team has applied this practical process for clients such as The Medici Group, University of Pennsylvania, Gordon College, United Methodist Publishing Group, author Derek Lidow, Magento, and a whole lot of others. We hype you up when you don’t have the time to do it on your own.
