Spotlighting Utica’s Small Businesses with Keith Brown (Community Lens Media & Love Living Local 315) Matt Masur of Click Stream Studios interviews Utica-area marketer and content creator Keith Brown about his work promoting positive stories and small businesses through Community Lens Media and Love Living Local 315. Brown explains how he helps mom-and-pop shops—especially local food spots without big marketing budgets—gain visibility by sharing their stories, and how he teaches a monthly “smartphone toolkit” content creation class at Mohawk Valley Community College. He describes starting during COVID by filming simple phone videos highlighting open restaurants, learning editing through “YouTube University,” and growing into a broader network that spotlights people, places, and events, including his “Coach’s Corner” segment. They discuss Utica foods like chicken riggies, the value of collaboration and networking, and where to find Brown on social platforms. 00:00 Welcome and Setup 00:35 Meet Keith Brown 02:19 Helping Small Businesses 03:17 Utica Food Talk 03:46 Riggis Favorites and Origins 06:08 Love Living Local 315 07:20 Started During COVID 09:30 Positive Content Mission 11:57 Community Lens Media 13:27 Collaboration and Networking 16:49 Where to Find Keith 17:37 Wrap Up and Goodbye
