Want A Thriving Business? Focus On BEST IDEAS TO START YOUR STREAMING TV SHOW !
Focus on generating revenue daily- everyday take a block and time to just work on that. Schedule it daily, you will see a huge uptick in your cash flow
Remember you are a producer. You are the producer of your show and that is what a producer does. Get the money.
It’s not really about getting the money, it’s about being able to get your voice out there and it costs. There are some people who will only receive a message from you. So if they don’t hear it from you, they will NEVER hear it. Revenue, helps you get your message out there.
Be open to all kinds of monetization, not just get your heart set on one thing and be waiting on that one sponsor or one grant. Work a few things at a time.
Get ideas from what others are doing but understand the underlying basis. Don’t just copy and paste.
For example: Podcasts are encourage to get distribution everyone. Get your podcast on as many stations as possible. This is great for you and for your sponsors. More exposure allows you to charge money.
When it comes to your streaming channel you want to do things differently. You want people to get your ROKU or Amazon Fire tv content, only from your channel. You don’t want to paste the same things to everyone, but then there is no point of them making the effort to go to your channel. There has to be something special there. People are lazy and want the easiest thing. Use other social media as a teaser for what is on your streaming channel.
