MOUNT PLEASANT, MICHIGAN

Business Technology, Web Design and Marketing in Mount Pleasant

Mount Pleasant runs on a calendar most towns do not have. Central Michigan University's academic year reshapes the customer base every August and May, a major casino resort brings visitors all year and the county's residents rely on the city for healthcare, shopping and professional services. QDCD helps Mount Pleasant businesses plan their marketing and systems around that rhythm.

LOCAL PRIORITIES

What Mount Pleasant businesses tend to need

Three different audiences share one city: students, visitors and year-round residents.

01

Plan around the academic year

Move-in, homecoming, graduation and the quiet summer months each call for different messages and budgets. A yearly plan beats reacting a month at a time.

02

Reach visitors before they arrive

Travellers choose restaurants, hotels and activities on their phones. Accurate listings, good photos and recent reviews decide where they go.

03

Keep up with a changing workforce

Businesses that hire students retrain constantly. Documented processes, simple systems and automation soften the cost of turnover.

MOUNT PLEASANT

The local market

Mission Street carries most of the city's retail and restaurant trade, while downtown along Broadway has independent shops, professional offices and county government. The university, the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe and its resort, and the regional hospital are the largest employers.

Because Mount Pleasant is the largest city for some distance in any direction, its businesses draw customers from across Isabella County and from Clare, Gratiot and Montcalm counties as well.
