Maple City
Maple City is a community in southern Leelanau County in the peninsula's orchard-and-vineyard country near Sleeping Bear, a small rural settlement with surrounding farms, woods, and a base of growers, shops, and service businesses. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms — custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing — for the Maple City area's growers, shops, and service businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania — nationwide, with on-site time when a project warrants the trip.

A single focused workflow runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; we scope it to what your Maple City operation actually needs and phase it so value lands early.
