Helps that they do it live as well.
I.E. a moment of 'this video is sponsored by X' before the video, but no more than that.
Yeah I don't mind the ads, having a small team would certainly offset that
the deal would be one advertorial per week
and small plugs in the beginning of three videos
if you treat them like ads on the radio and some online pod casts, like the daily wire, then i don't think its that big a problem. its just getting the ads right from the source rather than praying to all mighty google for some crumbs
I think styx pretty much said wean off youtube and focus on patrons.
what is the difference between an ad from google playing at the start of a video and an ad time has to read, so long as we know its an ad
so the sunday video would be like 4 minutes of product demo and 6 minutes of news
Sell merc or advertise them yourself. Dunno if it fits all situations.
monday-weds would be whatever i wanted with a 30 second shout out
Didnt you already do tech reviews? Cant be too different.
hard part is to stay... how do i say that... authentic... believeable... you know... if you come off as shilling something for the money it might hurt your credibility in areas related to the sponsors...
Too be honest its a tough situation here.
Based on yhe general ideas held by tims usual audience.
@I AM ERROR I doubt tim would get a sponsor that was political or in his domain at all
Most of us hate msm cause of govt or corp influence.
Only because said influence drives their narrative.
I don't think this would apply to Tim.
i wouldnt take a sponsor if the content didnt fit the things i talk about
I dont think so either. But will the average viewer think that?
and would drop any sponsor that got political
ill be able to hire other people to do vids and itll work towards launching subverse
I think it's safe to say that the average viewer can tell the difference, just from the fact that they're not watching MSM and coming to Tim's videos in the first place. lol
Eh fair. Then again, I think tim needs sponsors. Just an announcement should be made. But going indie is the key, screwed by yt and patreon sucks.
This is one way to grow less reliant on them. So I say its the more rational? Way forward?
It makes sense.
of course it makes sense... but... example... ben shapiro talks about his sponsors and somehow he is using all of them... i really don't buy that... comes off as shilling for the money...
Hes just a damn good speaker thats all.
Then again tim also talked bout that vpn service and it did sound convincing.
Unless he actually does use them. It may seem like he's shilling, and it is quite possible, but none of these services are incompatible.
vpns are good services
i used tunnel bear for a while but had some issues
seemed liek virtual shield put more money into their app
Yeah, I was thinking about a VPN sometime, but I make like 6k a year with my current job and need to save.
Hey, it's better than selling iodine and jacking up the price 500%
so when i go overseas I havea vpn for security but its more importantly used to watch netflix
lol
yea alex jones just sells supplements
i turned down mobile games and other shit liek that
