Greetings, everyone.

My name is Serianna Machesney Dehmlow, and I am the founder and creator of Cross-Country Confidence Productions. I am a 2021 graduate of Upper Iowa University with a Bachelor's degree in Communication Studies - Mass Media, and a 2022 graduate of Drake University with a Master's degree in Brand Communication.

As a film producer, filmmaker, voiceover actor, actor, content creator, and creativepreneur, I started a video production project that would help small businesses and nonprofit organizations to get the attention they deserve, and small businesses and nonprofits are local places that I hold dear to my heart.

Why am I doing this, you might ask? Well, the most important reason why I am doing this free business shoutout for the small businesses and nonprofit organizations far and near is because small businesses and nonprofits are the backbone of our communities. They are either often being overlooked, or they are not getting any visibility at all. To help change that, I am offering free, engaging, and professionally produced business shoutout videos, crafted to amplify their stories, expand their reach, and help them thrive.

To make this project a reality, I created this t-shirt campaign. Every shirt purchased directly helps fund toward the following:

? Video Production Costs: Equipment, Editing, and Software.

? Travel Expenses: Traveling to feature businesses far and near, including gas costs.

? Marketing and Outreach: Expanding the impact of these videos.

Wearing a shirt is more than a purchase?it?s a statement of support for local entrepreneurs, small businesses, and nonprofits, who are making a difference.

Every contribution, big or small, helps shine a light on hardworking organizations and amplifies their voices throughout the community. Out-of-state businesses and nonprofits are welcome, and your support helps make this project possible.

Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for believing in this mission and for supporting Cross-Country Confidence Productions. ?
