The Premise

Two platforms. One week. Different subjects.

AI Week does a masterful job of highlighting the industry, the tech, and the implications and opportunities in the workforce. The Queens Address is just as proficient at highlighting the people and the stories behind the innovation and thought leadership.

Where The Queens Address sits

The Queens Address is where leaders connect their stories to the work, so people can better understand the context of the innovators. Not the product, the reason. Not the launch, the decision behind it. Put a leader in the chair and the room finally hears who they are, what they are against, and why the work matters.

That context is what makes an audience care, and it is what a slide cannot carry. This proposal puts your brand inside that conversation at Great Lakes AI Week.

The room is ready

Great Lakes AI Week puts the region's AI decision makers in one building for three days. Fortune 1000 operators, founders, university leadership, and the state partners funding the movement. Your customers are in that room. Your competitors are trying to get in front of them. The only question is whether that room hears from you, or just reads your logo off a lanyard.

Queens Address Live is the microphone in that room. This is your brand on the air, in a real broadcast, in front of the exact audience you are trying to reach. And because of how we work, your investment does not end when the session ends. It becomes content that carries your name for months.

Why Queens Address Live

FIG. 01

An established broadcast brand.

The Queens Address is a Queens Address Productions brand with a host, a podcast, and a live-event format built over years of production. Jamilah Ewing hosts. You are buying into a working platform, not an experiment.

FIG. 02

You are featured, not parked.

On-air interviews, a real host, a real show. Your brand is part of the conversation the room came to hear, not a banner behind it.

FIG. 03

The Asset Cascade.

A single live taping yields eight to twelve deployable assets. Full episode, segment clips, vertical reels, an audiogram, quote cards, and photography. Your sponsorship keeps working long after the lights come down.

The show you are joining

Two live sessions, staged back to back inside Great Lakes AI Week, each a sixty-minute audience taping. The theme runs in sequence and it is built to hold a room of serious people.

Day one

The State of the Industry Today.

The honest read. What is real, what is oversold, where the region stands, and who is being left out.

Day two

Tomorrow, and the Door In.

The forward view from the thought leaders, then the practical work of getting in and overcoming the barriers of entry into the industry and into the tools.

The marketing strategy

The Position

Queens Address Live does not put a microphone on a table. It builds a room. We produce live-audience podcast experiences that pair national cultural weight with local authority, staged in the communities that actually show up.

The roster earns the attention. The platform earns the trust. The Ohio footprint earns the room. The culture we have banked earns the turnout. No one else in this market holds all four.

The Insight

Podcasting became a commodity the moment everyone got a microphone. Streaming a broadcast did not fix that. It added a feed nobody asked to watch. The value was never in the broadcast. It is in the room.

A live audience, curated guests, and a community that trusts the name on the door. That is the thing a laptop and a subscription cannot duplicate. So we are moving the story off the broadcast and onto the experience. We do not sell a stream. We produce a moment, and the moment is what the market pays for.

Four pillars of position

Our advantage is the stack

Four things almost no one else in this market can claim together.

01

The Roster. Cultural weight.

Queens Address has put heavyweight names in the chair. Grammy honorees, Emmy honorees, and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame figures. Access at this level is a ceiling most podcasts never reach, and it is proof that the platform can hold a name of real stature.

Concrete proof. The Jarobi White from A Tribe Called Quest sit-down, a marquee interview produced with a twenty-eight question, nine-section run of show and verified historical research. That is not a casual conversation. That is a production.

The roster

  • Grammy winners

    Norman Brown, October London, Matthieu Bitton

  • Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

    Masta Killah, Wu-Tang Clan

  • Emmy winning producer

    Markuaan Smith

02

The Platform. Local authority.

Queens Address Radio is a Queens Address Productions show co-produced and hosted by Jamilah Ewing. It elevates local women of impact across technology, medicine, finance, and arts and culture and airs Sundays on Urban 1 station Joy 106.3fm. That is trust, relevance, and a values story the market respects, carried on a platform we own and control.

Women of impact

  • AI Week Columbus Speaker

    Tracey Sigers

  • AI thought leader

    Lori Holt

03

The Footprint. Community reach.

The COhatch partnership and the Tour of Ohio put us in rooms across the state, not behind a screen. We do not rent attention. We own the room, market by market, and we bring the community with us.

04

The Social Capital. Credibility.

A Vibe Called Midwest banked years of street-level cultural trust. That is why the rooms fill and the right people say yes. Paired with a documented track record of producing live podcasts, it is the difference between hoping for a crowd and delivering one.

What we actually sell

We are moving the story off the broadcast and onto the experience.

Not a livestream. A live audience event. Curated guests, a real host, and a room that feels like a moment. The recording is the beginning, not the end.

One taping becomes eight to twelve assets through the Asset Cascade, so the experience keeps working long after the room clears. Sponsors do not buy a feed. They buy the room, the roster, and the reel.

Every episode lives on QueensAddress.com and across our own platforms. We also propose carrying these stories on Great Lakes AI Week's social channels and website, so the conversation reaches the people the event already gathers.

Three markets, one room

Each is a market

Guests. Cultural figures and local women of impact who want a platform that treats them with weight, not a quick hit.

Audience. A community that shows up because the name on the door means something, and stays because the room delivers.

Sponsors and partners. Brands and institutions that want access to that room, that roster, and the content that comes out of it.

The Message

We build the room where culture and community meet, and we put your brand inside it.

Weight. National-caliber guests and a broadcast platform. This is not amateur hour.

Trust. A show that champions local women of impact, and a name the community already believes in.

Presence. A live audience across Ohio, in real rooms, with real turnout we can prove.

Reach, in support

Evidence closes the argument

Reach is not the headline. It is the evidence. Once the position is clear, the numbers close the argument.

  • The Queens Address podcast and the full episode library on QueensAddress.com.
  • A standing proposal to carry these stories on Great Lakes AI Week's own social channels and website.
  • The Asset Cascade. Eight to twelve deployable assets per taping, carried across QAP and A Vibe Called Midwest channels.

The Motion

A machine that fills rooms

The strategy is not a campaign. It is a machine that turns position into filled rooms and filled rooms into revenue.

The COhatch Tour of Ohio is the engine.

A live-audience series that moves market to market, giving us a repeatable reason to be in each city.

A Vibe Called Midwest fills the rooms.

The social capital creates the buzz and the turnout that a cold booking never could.

The roster makes each stop must-attend.

Heavyweight guests and the women-of-impact platform give every date a headline.

The tools run the pipeline.

The Booking Engine scores and prioritizes prospects, and the Relationship CRM keeps every partner and sponsor moving toward yes.

How it converts

Marketing builds the story and the rooms. Sales turns them into signed terms. The tier and database model is proven, and every activation is a monetizable instance of the same machine. Great Lakes AI Week, November 3 to 5 in Toledo, is the first proof point on the calendar, with a partnership offer to the producer and three sponsor tiers already built.

Proof and track record

  • The Jarobi White sit-down from A Tribe Called Quest, produced with a full run of show and verified research.
  • A Vibe Called Midwest activations that draw real crowds and repeat partners.
  • Queens Address production tools already in service: the Asset Cascade, the Booking Engine, and the Relationship CRM.
  • The COhatch Community Tour and Founder Circle as standing partnership frameworks.
