ROCHESTER – MichiganMall.com is committed to finding ways to put struggling businesses or unemployed Michigan workers back to work by inviting small businesses, consultants and folks in the film industry to check out opportunities listed by the businesses listed at the Michigan business portal site.
“We are encouraging entrepreneurs, businesses in technology, local colleges and individuals who have an interest in the rapidly growing new industry to film commerce to remember we are a Michigan Business source,” said cofounder Marshal Rice. “We offer both paid or free listings and encourage people to utilize the search directory site as another reserve to leverage networking and employment.”

Since Michigan approved aggressive tax incentives last April to lure Hollywood filmmakers to the state, 71 projects have been approved, with 37 films already completed. Nearly 3,000 direct jobs have been created, with total wages reaching $57 million according the Michigan film Office.
The good news is more film-related jobs are on the way, and there’s a real urgency to get Michigan workers getting trained for these jobs. MichiganMall.Com supplies contacts for companies looking for Michigan-based businesses – so filmmakers don’t have to import workers.
MichiganMall.com is dedicated to ?making Michigan matter? as a collaborative resource to both unemployment and the film industry.
