“Adventures in Brew” Chooses CrowdBrewed.com Crowdfunding Platform to Cast Off On a Beer-Centric Road Trip to Craft Breweries

“Adventures in Brew” is partnering with Black Dog Promotions in a fundraising campaign that will take the beer show across America.

Chandler, AZ/Denver, CO, January 15, 2014 – The hit web show “Adventures in Brew” has been a crowd favorite ever since it hit the air in early 2013. James Swann is the host and beer expert behind “Adventures in Brew” and his decades of beer knowledge and beer brewing experience encompass a love of beer that began back in England where Swann grew up. “I’ve grown up working in bars, restaurants and pubs all my life,” stated Swann. His vast experience in brewing will undoubtedly catapult “Adventures in Brew” to the head of the class of special interest shows.

Instead of going with Kickstarter, Adventures in Brew chose the CrowdBrewed.com platform to launch their fundraising campaign. “The crowdfunding is like Kickstarter, but it’s only focused on the craft beer industry, so this is really exciting,” said Swann. “When we’re on the road, we’ll have the chance to visit craft breweries all over and discover what makes them special, we’ll conduct interviews, play beer challenge games and get to know brew masters from across the country.”

Those wishing to support Adventures In Brew’s crowd funding campaign can learn more and make a pledge at https://crowdbrewed.com/rewards/campaigns/adventures-in-brew/

“Adventures in Brew” has partnered with Black Dog Promotions and its CEO and Founder, Scott Kelly for marketing and public relations to launch the show on a national basis and get it out on the road. Kelly said, “Viewers and fans have already been very receptive to ‘Adventures in Brew.’ Not only is it educational, but it’s a completely fun romp, from start to finish. James Swann is likeable and so knowledgeable about beer, that we expect that audiences will always want to tune in to see what kind of craziness is taking place. We feel that CrowdBrewed.com is the perfect place to kick off our crowdfunding endeavors.”

The part of the country where the crowdfunding comes from is where the funds will be spent. “For instance, if a bunch of people in a particular area of Colorado get together and fund, we’ll be off to Colorado to do the show,” Swann stated. “Personally, I would lean towards San Diego and moving up to Orange County and around Denver Colorado, but it’s really up to those people who help fund the show. If they decide we should be in Florida, then that’s where we’ll go.” Travel expenses and a production crew will all be specific expenses paid for by crowdfunding money. “It’s going to be a blast and everywhere that we’ve done a show so far; the feedback has been phenomenal.

CrowdBrewed.com has become the “de facto” standard for craft beer crowdfunding ever since USA TODAY ran an article in August 2012, touting the company as “the first-ever crowdfunding site designed specifically for craft beer entrepreneurs.” CrowdBrewed was created to provide a secure, transparent platform for companies to obtain the financing they need to grow their businesses. At the same time, investors can use CrowdBrewed to invest in companies in the fast-growing and exciting craft beer industry.

CrowdBrewed.com is a donation/reward crowdfunding platform for craft brewers and beer industry affiliates who want to raise money for just about anything as it relates to beer. Specially-targeted fundraising campaigns are created to tell the story to a crowd of potential donors and supporters in exchange for a reward or product. Their site is where others can discover new beers, learn about brewing and get involved in the industry.

Black Dog’s team has a long history of success in the entertainment, sports and the technology and finance industries. They have taken companies from concept to millions of dollars in sales and billions of dollars in market capitalization.

Black Dog Promotions Announces Newest Client/Media Partner, GSI Global, Inc.

GSI Global is partnering with Black Dog Promotions in developing state-of-the-industry content for digital broadcasting across multiple platforms, locally and internationally.

Scottsdale, AZ, November 11, 2013 — Black Dog Promotions is proud to introduce their newest client GSI Global, Inc. Business partners Tank Jones and Mike Smoot are at the helm of GSI Global, Inc., which launched in 2012. “Our mission at GSI Global is to connect consumers with content created by many providers and to do that in a profitable way,” Jones explained. “Anything video-related we do; whether its video integration into someone’s current website, or helping them to produce or edit a video, add graphic animation on a video or anything they can use video for, that’s what we do.” Essentially, any person or company can have their very own quality channel with GSI Global, Inc.

Founder of Black Dog Promotions, Scott Kelly said, “Not only are we gaining an exciting new client and partner with GSI Global, Inc., but we will also be launching the Black Dog Promotions Channel on their site. This marks an unprecedented media expansion that will also encompass some of Black Dog Promotions’ other clients. We are proud to have partnered with such a forward-thinking media company.”

Some popular channels on the site now include a Hispanic online media publication and Renegade Calendar Girls. The next channel that is already creating a lot of buzz is The Shorts Network and will debut in mid-November. “It’s a conglomeration of short films from independent producers as well as a couple of Academy Award-winning shorts. We’ve been getting a ton of films that we’re ingesting into the channel right now and we’ve got filmmakers from all over the world,” Jones explained. Of note, Jones is also a steadily working actor, appearing in many films including “Three Kings” and as Hank’s physical therapist on the mega-hit show, “Breaking Bad.” In keeping it light-hearted, the site will be running a lot of spoof videos and spoof advertising paying homage to films and pop culture in general.

Another division of GSI Global provides a video integration component to online magazines and a way for real estate agents to showcase their home listings in a more interactive way. “We’re working with a lot of businesses in the Scottsdale area and the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce,” Jones noted. There will also be a pay-per-view component for martial arts fighting and other special events. Kelly added, “With so many special events and concerts, there will now be another incredibly attractive way for production companies to put forth quality media and retain a very high portion of profits.”

This site allows content partners to have creative control over their own channels without the aggravation of forced ads and channel providers will be able to choose to exactly whom they want to market their channel. “If someone has a following, they can provide the advertising and we’ll put that advertising (skins, pre-rolls, banners, etc.) on their channel. Our revenue share is much more favorable to where our content providers are making the lion’s share of the money compared to other video channels,” noted Jones. GSI Global, Inc. is positioned to become the premier video content platform for an unlimited number of industries, businesses and special-interest groups.

“We’re going to be one of the first companies to offer local channels for free. You’ll be able to watch all your local channels for free without a subscription to a cable or satellite provider,” said Jones. “We’re also affiliated with DISH Network and we provide the cable for lots of hotels, military bases and apartment complexes.” GSI Global, Inc. is also looking forward to providing premium content to foreign countries that don’t have access to quality content and programming.

Black Dog Promotions is a media and business development agency and also provides digital marketing and publicity consulting for regional and national brands.

CloudeAssurance and Data Privacy Network to Present “Adopting the Cloud Safely and Securely” Webinar

Comprehensive webinar will explore how to safely and securely adopt the cloud to maximize its benefits for business.

Tempe, AZ, November 05, 2013 — Black Dog Promotions is proud to announce a dynamic new webinar that will be produced jointly with CloudeAssurance and Data Privacy Network. With the explosion of the “cloud” recently, it is increasingly being embraced by businesses worldwide. In taking it to the next level–security of data, files and information need to be of the utmost importance. Founder Taiye Lambo and Lead Cloud Security Analyst Jordan Flynn of CloudeAssurance and Co-Founder of Data Privacy Network, Phil Alexander will conduct this vitally important webinar on Wednesday, November 20th, 11:00 a.m. EST/8:00 a.m. PST.

“What we’re going to focus on are the real world benefits of the cloud,” said Alexander. “There are definite benefits. You have worldwide collaboration, rapid deployment and reduced cost. It’s much easier to go through an established cloud service provider than to try and create a cloud environment in your own network.” There are also risks that are involved with using a cloud environment. “We will ask the attendee to consider several things,” noted Alexander. Questions to consider will be: 1) What level of security is right for your company? 2) What’s the nature of your data? 3) How sensitive is that data? 4) Is data co-mingled? “If it’s just non-sensitive, fully-disclosed data, security is less of an issue.” The webinar will utilize three state-of-the-industry experts to help walk business owners and IT experts through the myriad of security exposure scenarios and give valuable strategies and solution ideas to help organizations protect their data. An attendee Q&A session will also take place towards the end of the webinar.

“We’ll be exchanging a lot of ideas. The main thing we’ll be talking about are the benefits of adopting the cloud for business and then the potential security issues of putting your information in the cloud,” stated Lambo. There are also some other important issues that businesses will be made aware of and how best to handle various security issues. “We’ll be sharing our high level research and explaining our Top 10 cloud service provider independent benchmark study information,” Lambo said. Flynn added, “This webinar focuses on how to enable the benefits of the cloud securely.” The webinar is free of charge and attendees can sign up here https://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/9459/91376.

The collaboration between CloudeAssurance and Data Privacy Network will continue beyond their initial webinar, too. “We’re so like-minded. It’s one of those things that you can’t have privacy without security,” said Lambo. “And we share the same philosophy.” The ultimate goal is for the two companies together to increase awareness of online security while conducting webinars and speaking engagements designed to give businesses valuable knowledge and strategies to protect their business information.

The Palms Theatre Brings the Heat for Inaugural Musical Production Menopause the Musical® Kicks off the 2013-2014 Season

The Prather Entertainment Group is proud to announce the opening of The Palms Theatre in Mesa.

Mesa, AZ, October 02, 2013 – The Prather Entertainment Group is proud to announce the opening of The Palms Theatre in Mesa. Formerly known as Broadway Palm Dinner Theatre, the grand opening will take place October 24, 2013 to kick off the 2013-2014 season with the runaway hit musical comedy, Menopause the Musical® , running October 24th through November 23rd, with both evening and matinee performances.

In a marketing association with Black Dog Promotions, Menopause the Musical® promises to be an audience favorite, as popular as it was when it ran at Prather Entertainment Group’s other theatres, where the musical routinely had sold-out performances. The show is a non-stop feast of singing, dancing, witty dialogue and parodies from the ‘60’s, 70’s and 80’s that will resonate with a wide audience.

Menopause the Musical® is set in a department store, where four women with nothing in common but a black lace bra accidentally meet at a lingerie sale. The all-female cast pokes musical hilarity fun of their woeful hot flashes, forgetfulness, mood swings, wrinkles, night sweats and chocolate binges. A sisterhood is formed between these diverse women when they realize that menopause is no longer “The Silent Passage” and is made easier with a bit of humor.

Menopause The Musical® is the work of writer and producer, Jeanie Linders. The laughter-filled 90-minute production includes parodies from the classics of the ‘60s and ‘70s and ‘80s. Disco hit “Stayin’ Alive” becomes “Stayin’ Awake,” Motown favorite “My Girl” is transformed into “My Thighs,” “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” switches to “In the Guest Room or on the Sofa, My Husband Sleeps at Night,” and “Puff The Magic Dragon” becomes the anthem to exercise, “Puff, My God I’m Draggin.’” It’s ‘The Hilarious Celebration of Women and the Change!’®

The Prather Entertainment Group is a family owned and operated company that follows one basic philosophy, “Give the guests great entertainment at a great value.” The company also owns The Dutch Apple Dinner Theatre in Lancaster, Pennsylvania and the Broadway Palm Dinner Theatre in Fort Myers, Florida.

Black Dog Promotions is a media and business development agency and also provides digital marketing and publicity consulting for regional and national brands. Black Dog’s team has a long history of success in the entertainment, sports, technology and finance industries. They have taken companies from concept to millions of dollars in sales and billions of dollars in market capitalization. Find out more at www.BlackDogPromotions.com.
