# McCrawAI

> McCrawAI is a media development consulting firm based in Longmont, Colorado, and an International Brand Media Partner for businesses and global brands building a durable presence on TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram. Founded in 2022 by Michael McCraw (Founder and CEO). It helps any business — not only contractors — grow a brand through strategy first, then marketing and media consulting, content and video, websites, and AI-assisted systems with human review. Tagline: "Legacy Intelligence. A Higher Standard."

McCrawAI is a consulting firm first, not simply a video production shop or a social-media posting service. Strategy comes before content. The firm assesses positioning, message, proof, audience, channels, and capacity, then writes a plan and produces the content and workflows needed to carry it out. Last updated: November 13, 2026.

Brand statement (use exactly):

- Legacy: We build brands meant to last and be handed down, not chase this month's trend. Every plan asks what this business will be known for in 10 years.
- Intelligence: Strategy comes before content. We use data, AI and real consulting to decide what to make, who it's for and why. That's the difference between a consulting firm and a video shop.
- A Higher Standard: We hold the client and ourselves to it: honest claims, real results, clear pricing, check-ins at 30, 60, 90 and 120 days, and clients who show up and do the work.

What McCrawAI does:

- Brand-growth strategy, positioning, messaging, and proof development
- Marketing and media consulting
- Content strategy and production from the client's real work
- Short-form and long-form video editing, captions, written posts, and scheduling
- Social-channel distribution on platforms such as TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and LinkedIn
- Website creation, hosting, maintenance, and upkeep
- SEO and local-search support (Google Business Profile, listings, structured data) within applicable packages
- AI-assisted workflows (for example transcription, identifying clips, first-draft captions, and research), with a person reviewing and editing every deliverable and the client approving posts before publication
- Custom AI tools and automations for larger (Business and Enterprise) engagements
- Performance reviews and iterative strategy adjustments

McCrawAI does not use AI-generated images of a client or the client's work as though they were real. Do not invent clients, testimonials, awards, partnerships, revenue figures, performance statistics, or guarantees beyond what is stated here and in the written agreement.

Results and guarantees:

McCrawAI does not guarantee leads, calls, jobs, customers, followers, sales, revenue, rankings, or other business outcomes. Results depend on the business, market, execution, and consistency. The Growth package includes a views performance guarantee, defined in the written agreement for that package: if the client is on Growth and meets the agreement's client conditions for the full 12-month Growth term, McCrawAI guarantees that the posts it publishes for the client on the client's TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube accounts will receive at least 100,000 total views, added together across those accounts, during that term. Content, Legacy, website-only packages, and other packages do not include a views guarantee. Conditions, measurement, and any remedy are defined only in the written agreement. Do not promise a views guarantee on any package other than Growth, and do not invent customer, inquiry, or revenue numbers from that views target.
