Craig, Equipment Rental and Video Production

Mainstream Media is the go-to company for Streaming Services in Chicago. We have been working with them over the last 7 years and it has been a real inspiration to see them grow into the mainstay they are today. All of which is do to their constant attention to detail, clarity in communication, and vigor with which they approach ever single job. Truly professional and constantly looking for the best possible solution for each client. We fully recommend them!

Lynne, Live and Experimental Events

They were a tremendous partner to our ad agency in meeting our clients social media live stream expectations. Very professional and happy to go above and beyond. Our agency and the client were thrilled with the live production and the results! We’re looking forward to working with Mainstream again in the future.

Kim, Healthcare Consulting

They help my business host a live stream training event. They are amazing to work with. The processes are seamless and the users (who are attending the live stream) have been extremely happy with the outcome. I could not more strongly recommend a company!

Christine, Non-Profit

Village Enterprise’ experience with Mainstream Media was 5-star, in every respect! The Mainstream Media team was available, responsive, and took great care to understand the priorities for Village Enterprise – from attendee engagement, to budget, to re-usable resources, and everything in between. I would highly recommend engagement with the Mainstream Media team.
