Today we’d like to introduce you to Mecha Swain.
Hi Mecha, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
I started my company with SlapStik Comedy Magazine. I used to write reviews for the Columbus Funny Bone. I started networking with comedians and they suggested that I add SlapStik Comedy Radio and SlapStik Comedy TV. I used to write press releases for comedians at no charge, and that helped me connect with comedians because most of the press releases were for TV appearances. When I started SlapStik Comedy TV, I used the stage at the Columbus Funny Bone. I started recording SlapStik Comedy Radio in the living room in my home.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It has not been a smooth road at all. I’ve sacrificed a lot to grow my business. After I have completed a work, I then put the money back into my business. I take pride in being “self-made.” I have built my business from ground up and I never had an investor. My business has challenged me, and that helped me grow.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about Mecha Media and SlapStik Comedy Entertainment?
Mecha Media is my production company. I created a platform called SlapStik Comedy Entertainment to showcase comedians through SlapStik Comedy Magazine, Radio, and TV. I have my own studio where I create content. In my studio, there is an office, a podcast room, and a green screen room. I started my business on my own. I have been involved with media work since 7th grade. I was a news anchor for Clark Middle School during my 7th and 8th-grade years. I have a great team and we work day in and day out to create content.
How do you think about luck?
Today, I thanked GOD that my company and my brand is taken seriously. I recently rewrote my content strategy to where my team and I are working with more creatives in the industry and comedians. It’s nice that when we submit an interview request, we receive a response. I’m thankful to see our numbers grown in the backend. Our audience is growing on social media, our website, and our blog.
