๐ŸŽ‰ WE HAVE OUR FIRST TWO!

When I launched the Bayview Christian School website fundraiser, I honestly wasn't sure how quickly businesses would jump on board.
Well... we officially have our first TWO. โค๏ธ

Welcome:

๐ŸŽ‰ Fashioned with Grace Boutique - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61579505825038

๐ŸŽ‰ That Property Lady - https://www.facebook.com/ThatPropertyLady

Both businesses are getting new websites AND helping support Bayview Christian School at the same time.

For every website project booked through this special promotion, 50% of the qualifying project cost is going directly to Bayview to help with their much-needed bathroom renovations.

๐Ÿ”ฅ 2 BUSINESSES CLAIMED
๐Ÿ”ฅ 8 SPOTS LEFT

Professional 5-page websites start at just $500 โ€” which means even the basic package puts $250 directly toward Bayview's renovation project.

A HUGE thank you to our first two businesses for getting this thing rolling. I'll be sharing more about them and their new websites as we get to work!

If your business needs a new website โ€” or you know somebody whose business does โ€” send them my way.

โค๏ธ 10 LOCAL BUSINESSES. 10 WEBSITE PROJECTS. 50% GOING BACK TO BAYVIEW CHRISTIAN SCHOOL.

We're officially kicking off the first special project of our 100 Local Businesses Before 2027 Challenge โ€” and this one is about helping more than just the businesses we work with.

I recently talked with Josh Fenkart, Pastor of Bayview Baptist Church and Principal of Bayview Christian School, about ways 415 Media could help support something they genuinely need.

Josh told me one of their upcoming projects is a much-needed renovation of the bathrooms at Bayview.

So we made a deal. ๐Ÿค

For the NEXT 10 WEBSITE PROJECTS that sign up through this special promotion:

๐Ÿ‘‰ 415 Media will donate 50% of the website project cost directly to Bayview to help fund the bathroom renovations.

And to make it easier for local small businesses to participate, we're offering special pricing for these 10 projects.

๐Ÿ’ป Professional 5-page websites starting at just $500.

That includes:

โœ“ Professionally designed 5-page website
โœ“ Customized with your colors & branding
โœ“ Mobile-friendly design
โœ“ Your business information, services & contact details
โœ“ Contact/lead form
โœ“ Photos you provide or appropriate professional imagery
โœ“ Basic on-page SEO foundations

Need something larger than five pages?

That's fine too.

Additional pages, features and larger custom website projects can be quoted separately โ€” and 50% of the qualifying project cost will still go to Bayview.

So a basic $500 website means:

โค๏ธ $250 goes to Bayview.

A $1,000 website project?

โค๏ธ $500 goes to Bayview.

The idea is pretty simple:

Your business gets something it needs.
Bayview gets help with something they need.
And we keep more of those dollars working right here in our local community.

These 10 businesses will also become part of our larger mission to help 100 Local Businesses Before 2027.

There are only 10 spots available through the Bayview promotion, and once they're claimed, this particular offer is finished.

๐Ÿ‘‡ Learn more and claim one of the 10 spots here:

Even if your business doesn't need a website, we'd REALLY appreciate a share or tag someone in the comments that may be interested. There may be a business owner on your friends list who's been putting off a new website and would love the opportunity to get it done while supporting Bayview at the same time.

Let's build some websites... and help remodel a bathroom. ๐Ÿ˜โค๏ธ

๐ŸŽ‰ **BUSINESS #3 OF 100 โ€” DELMARVA PRIVATE PLANNING**

Another local business is officially part of our **100 Local Business Challenge!**

This time we worked with **Delmarva Private Planning**, led by financial planner Kara Lewis.

And this project is a really good example of what I mean when I say this challenge isn't simply about building 100 websites.

Delmarva Private Planning already had an established business, a clear mission and a TON of experience behind it.

The problem?

**Their online presence wasn't doing a good enough job representing the business behind it.**

So we went to work.

We completely redesigned **DelmarvaPlanning.com** to give the business a cleaner, more professional online presence that better showcases Kara's experience, credentials and relationship-based approach to financial planning.

We made the services easier to understand.

We improved the calls-to-action.

We improved the mobile experience.

And we created a much stronger foundation for the business as Kara continues growing Delmarva Private Planning throughout the area.

But we didn't stop at the website.

We also found issues with the company's **Google Business Profile** and worked through getting that properly set up and corrected โ€” another important piece of making sure local customers can actually find and trust the business online.

That's exactly what the **100 Local Business Challenge** is about.

It's not:

โŒ โ€œEverybody needs a new website.โ€

It's:

**โ€œLet's look at your business, figure out where there's an opportunity to make something better... and then actually MAKE IT BETTER.โ€**

For Delmarva Private Planning, that meant:

โœ… Complete website redesign
โœ… Stronger brand presentation
โœ… Clearer services
โœ… Better calls-to-action
โœ… Improved mobile experience
โœ… Google Business Profile corrections
โœ… Stronger foundation for local visibility

**Business #3 is officially complete.**

๐Ÿ”ฅ **3 down. 97 to go.**

๐ŸŒถ๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ BUSINESS #2 OF 100 โ€” DELAWARE SAUCE COMPANY

We're turning up the heat a little for Business #2. ๐Ÿ˜

If you've spent much time around Delmarva, there's a good chance you've come across Delaware Sauce Company and their award-winning EagleWingz brand of hot sauces.

They're a homegrown Delmarva business producing some seriously good sauces right here on the Shore โ€” and I recently had the opportunity to help give their online home an upgrade.

Delaware Sauce Company already had an e-commerce website, but it was time for a change.

We moved the store away from WordPress/WooCommerce and over to Shopify, gave the site a fresh new look, and made some improvements to help create a better shopping experience for their customers.

A few of the highlights:

๐ŸŒถ๏ธ Fresh, updated website design
๐ŸŒถ๏ธ Migration from WooCommerce to Shopify
๐ŸŒถ๏ธ Cleaner, easier online shopping experience
๐ŸŒถ๏ธ Product & cart improvements to help increase sales
๐ŸŒถ๏ธ A stronger platform they can continue growing on

Nothing overly complicated.

Just taking a great local business with a great product and giving them a better online home to match.

And that's exactly what this whole challenge is about.

Delaware Sauce Company is officially Business #2 of our 100 Local Business Challenge.

๐Ÿ”ฅ 2 DOWN. 98 TO GO.

And definitely go show them some Delmarva love โ€” just choose your heat level wisely. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒถ๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ

๐ŸŽ‰ BUSINESS #1 OF 100 IS OFFICIALLY IN THE BOOKS!

We're kicking off the 415 Media 100 Local Business Challenge with a local business I've had the opportunity to work with before โ€” Wayne Barrall Photography

Wayne already had something important working for him.

He uses SmugMug to showcase his photography, manage galleries and give clients access to their photos. It does that job well.

So we didn't replace it.

Instead, we looked at what was missing.

Wayne needed a true home base for his business โ€” somewhere a potential customer could land, learn about Wayne, see the different photography services he offers, browse his work and easily figure out how to take the next step.

So we built WBPhotos.net.

The new website now serves as the marketing hub for Wayne Barrall Photography, while his existing SmugMug setup continues doing what it already does well behind the scenes.

And THAT is really what this challenge is about.

We're not trying to sell 100 businesses the exact same thing.

We're looking at 100 individual local businesses, figuring out where there's an opportunity to make something better, and then actually doing it.

Sometimes that's going to mean a new website.

Sometimes it might be Google, reviews, email marketing, social media, lead generation or something completely different.

Wayne Barrall Photography is officially #1.

โœ… 1 business down.
๐Ÿ”ฅ 99 to go.

And we're just getting started.

I've put together a full case study showing what we changed, why we changed it and how the new website fits together with what Wayne already had.

๐Ÿ‘‡ Check it out here:

And while you're there, definitely check out some of Wayne's photography. The guy has photographed a little bit of EVERYTHING across Delmarva. ๐Ÿ“ธ

100 Local Businesses Before 2027.

Real businesses. Real improvements. One community.

๐Ÿšจ WEโ€™RE TAKING ON A CHALLENGE: 100 LOCAL BUSINESSES BEFORE 2027

Over the next few months, 415 Media is setting out to help 100 local businesses make a real improvement to their digital presence before the end of 2026.

And no โ€” that doesnโ€™t mean weโ€™re trying to sell 100 websites.

Every business is different.

For one business, the biggest opportunity might be a better website.

For another, it could be getting their Google Business Profile cleaned up so more local customers can actually find them.

Another might need a better system for generating reviews, collecting email addresses, following up with leads, improving their social media presence, or fixing something simple that has been costing them business.

The goal is simple:

Find something that can genuinely help each businessโ€ฆ and improve it.

As we work our way toward 100, weโ€™re going to document the journey right here.

Youโ€™ll see posts like:

BUSINESS #7 OF 100 โœ…

Weโ€™ll show you the business, what we found, what we changed, why we changed it, and hopefully share some ideas you can use in your own business along the way.

But thereโ€™s another part of this that Iโ€™m really excited about.

Throughout the challenge, weโ€™re going to create some special ways to become one of the 100.

Some might be limited-time offers.

Some might include free bonus services.

Some may be special opportunities for certain types of businesses.

And some will be tied to giving back to our local community โ€” supporting classrooms, nonprofits, local causes and other things we care about.

Weโ€™re not planning all 100 spots ahead of time.

Thatโ€™s part of the fun.

Weโ€™re going to see where this takes us.

Our goal isnโ€™t just to complete 100 projects.

Itโ€™s to help 100 local businesses become a little stronger than they were before we met them.

100 businesses.
Real improvements.
One community.

And weโ€™re starting now.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Want your business to become one of the 100?

Send us a message and tell us a little about your business.

You might already know what you need help with.

And if you donโ€™t?

Thatโ€™s okay too. Weโ€™ll help you figure it out.

0/100 โ†’ Letโ€™s go. ๐Ÿš€
