Support Veteran-Owned MBMG's Equipment Upgrade

Donation protected
Better Sound. Better Vision. Better Service.

My name is Ronnie L. Jones. I am a 100% service-connected disabled veteran, a single father of four, and the founder of MBMG Entertainment — an independent, veteran-owned creative studio based in Clarksville, Tennessee.

I didn't build this company with investors or a label behind me. I built it with discipline, sacrifice, and a deep belief that independent artists, small businesses, and community organizations deserve professional-quality creative services — not just the ones who can afford to go downtown.

MBMG Entertainment offers professional audio engineering, mixing, mastering, music production, video production, podcast production, live stream support, and content creation. We serve the people who are building something real — and we do it at a level that punches way above our weight class.

But the tools we're working with are holding us back from reaching the next level. And this campaign is how we get there.

WHAT THIS CAMPAIGN IS ABOUT

To keep delivering the quality our clients deserve — and to expand what we're capable of offering — MBMG Entertainment needs a full equipment upgrade.

We're talking about:

• A professional podcast setup that lets us record clean, broadcast-ready audio for clients and our own content
• Live stream equipment so we can produce and broadcast events, shows, and sessions in real time
• A new camera and lenses to elevate the visual quality of every video production, promo, and content shoot
• Clip-on wireless lavalier mics for on-location interviews, event coverage, and documentary-style content
• A new computer workstation powerful enough to handle professional-grade audio and video editing simultaneously
• Industry-standard software — DAW, editing suite, plugins, and streaming tools
• Professional lighting to make every shoot look like it belongs in a major production
• The cables, mounts, storage, and accessories that hold it all together

Every single dollar raised goes directly into these tools. Not overhead. Not salaries. The gear that makes the work possible.

WHO WE SERVE

MBMG Entertainment exists to give a voice and a platform to people who are doing big things on small budgets.

Our clients include:
• Independent musicians and recording artists
• Local businesses that need promotional content and brand video
• Content creators building their digital presence
• Community organizations that need their message heard
• Podcasters and media personalities ready to take their show to the next level

We are not a boutique agency charging boutique prices. We are a veteran-owned shop in Clarksville that brings major-market quality to people who deserve it — regardless of their budget.

WHY YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS

I have poured everything I have into this business. As a 100% service-connected disabled veteran and a single father of four, I have kept MBMG Entertainment moving forward through circumstances that would have stopped most people.

But I can't outwork a broken camera lens. I can't mix my way around a computer that can't keep up. And I can't serve my clients at the level they deserve if I'm limited by what I'm working with.

This campaign is not about getting comfortable. It's about getting capable.

With the right tools, MBMG Entertainment can:
• Take on more clients and larger projects
• Produce podcast content that competes at a national level
• Live stream events and performances with broadcast quality
• Create video content that opens doors for every artist and business we work with
• Build a sustainable business that provides for my four kids and my community for years to come

HOW YOU CAN HELP
