Frederic
Frederic is a community in northern Crawford County in the northern-Michigan forest country near the upper Manistee River along US-127/Old-27, a small rural settlement surrounded by woods and a base of recreation, outfitters, and service businesses. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms — custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing — for the Frederic area's recreation, outfitters, and service businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania — nationwide, with on-site time when a project warrants the trip.
Do you work with businesses in Frederic, Michigan?
Yes — remote-first from our York County, Pennsylvania base, with on-site visits when a project warrants it. A Frederic client gets a named contact, a regular maintenance window, and direct access for urgent issues.
Does being in a small northern-Michigan community make support harder?
Not at all — remote-first is how we work everywhere, so a Frederic business gets the same fast response and attention as one in a bigger town, without waiting on a road trip.
What would you build for a Frederic recreation, outfitter, or service business?
Usually a booking, customer, scheduling, or billing platform built around how your seasonal operation runs — so a Frederic business works from one system instead of a paper calendar and disconnected apps.
Where does AI help a Frederic business?
In intake, booking, customer email, and follow-up — so a Frederic business gets real leverage through the Manistee River and forest seasons without scrambling for staff.
What's the cybersecurity baseline for a Frederic business?
Managed EDR, MFA, immutable backups, phishing filtering, and a written recovery plan, plus secure payment handling if you take card payments. We set it up and manage it for you.
What does a custom platform cost a Frederic business?
A single focused workflow runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; we scope it to what your Frederic operation actually needs and phase it so value lands early.
How long until it's running?
Usually eight to ten weeks to the first live workflow, then iterative improvements from there.
Who owns the code and data?
You do, outright — no lock-in. The platform and data belong to your Frederic business.
How fast do you respond when something breaks?
Typically 15–60 minutes during business hours and under an hour after-hours for critical issues, handled remotely with direct access for urgent problems — which matters most in season.
