Entertaining Content that Sells

This is a branded piece of content created with our entertainment brand, Dan & Karen IRL.

It shows how a business can be integrated into a long-form, entertaining video without feeling like an ad. When the idea is strong, the content works regardless of follower count. And with the creator’s permission, brands can use it on their own pages for marketing and advertising.

This is how attention turns into opportunity.

The Problems we Solve

We did not set out to solve every business problem. We simply followed the same pattern again and again. Established companies wanted better marketing. Startups needed guidance. Growing brands needed clarity. Larger organizations needed stronger creative and production support.

Over time, we realized the real problem was not just content.
It was growth.

Every business wants momentum, opportunity, and clarity on what will actually move them forward. Content, media, and creative are just the tools. Growth is the goal.

Some businesses are just starting and need direction.
Some are established but stuck.
Some want one strong piece of creative.
Some need consistency to scale.
Some run major events and need professional execution.
Some have teams but need stronger creative support.
Some brands want content people actually want to watch.

We exist to solve those problems.

We help businesses understand what to do, execute it with confidence, and scale what works.

Because growth creates opportunity.
Growth creates jobs.
Growth creates impact.

And helping businesses grow is why we exist.

Helping Businesses Since 2009

Kathman Studios began in a college dorm room when founder Dan Kathman took out a student loan, not for classes, but to start his first business. While studying at the University of South Florida, he began creating videos for student organizations and campus events, quickly expanding into work for local businesses and community brands.

Over the years, those early projects grew into experience across industries, platforms, and business sizes, including work with national brands, televised projects, and large-scale productions across Texas and Florida.

Today, Kathman Studios is a content and media company helping businesses use video, creative, and production for marketing, advertising, branding, and growth. From monthly content and one-off projects to corporate event coverage, creative campaigns, and business guidance.

Our focus is simple. Helping companies get the media and marketing they need today to grow and take their business to the next level.

Based in Clearwater, Florida and serving clients nationwide, we bring structure, creativity, and real-world business perspective to every project.

Seventeen years in, and we’re still building toward our next level, right alongside you.

BTS for 17 years!
