Presented By JMU Athletics and Appeal Production
Since 2020, Appeal Production and JMU Athletics have partnered to bring the “Small Business Game Changer” campaign to the community, helping small businesses in Virginia stand out. Each year, this initiative grows, and the 2023–2024 campaign saw over three times as many submissions as the previous year.
For the upcoming campaign, one deserving business will be awarded a JMU Athletics marketing package valued at $20,000 and a video package, including up to 3-minutes of professional video, from Appeal Production valued at $10,000—a combined $30,000 value designed to take your business from invisible to irresistible!

“In the world of small business, it isn’t just about being good – it is about standing out. As a fellow small business, we understand how difficult cutting through the noise can be. Appeal Production is thrilled to partner with JMU Sports Properties to help small businesses grow from from invisible to irresistible. We look forward to giving one small business the opportunity to stand out, because they deserve it.”
Mike Chatburn

“After a record-setting year of submissions for Small Business Game Changer, we are excited by the continued growth of this program and interest from the Shenandoah Valley’s small business community. This is an extraordinary initiative, and we appreciate the ongoing commitment of Appeal Production to making this opportunity possible for our local community members.”
