Pricing

Not only does participation in this exclusive program provide you access to arguably the two most powerful mediums in society today, the Internet and online video, your organization can be creating, publishing, managing and sharing content with its own Private Channel for as little as $54 a day and $1,675 a month.

That's right, the annual channel licensing fee of $20,000 is offered at a 20% discount from the cost a for-profit organization pays to license a channel here at NativeBiz.

With just a licensing fee and no hidden startup or setup fees, our program is intended to allow nonprofit organizations and educational institutions with limited technology and/or marketing budgets a cost effective way to utilize these exciting mediums without excessive technology, infrastructure and staffing costs.

But wait, there's more.

Question 1. Wouldn't it be great if you could sell short advertising spots before the videos playing on your channel to underwrite the cost of the channel?

Question 2. Could your organization use up to an additional $30,000 in revenue every year from tribal, corporate, foundation or other sponsors that support your mission or businesses that simply wish to expose their products or services to your audience using this powerful and proven advertising tool?

If you answered yes to either question above, visit the Make $$ tab.

Using your Channel as a Fundraising tool.

Through our Network Partners for Nonprofits Program which is offered exclusively to approved nonprofit organizations and educational institutions, approved applicants may license up to (10) annual ‘premium’ sponsor/advertising spots on their channel.

That's right, tribal, corporate, foundation or other sponsors that support your mission, or businesses that simply wish to expose their products or services to your audience using this powerful and proven advertising tool can do so for as little as $13.70 a day.

Here's how it works:

• A maximum of (10) sponsor/advertiser spots may be sold by channel licensee on an annual basis (life of the channel license) for a set price of $5,000 each for a total of $50,000. NativeBiz must approve all sponsors/advertisers prior to engagement and acceptance of funds.
• Image ads appear for (10) seconds before all videos in the channel, ads must be exactly 300h x 250w (pixels), ads can be animated (less than 10 second cycle), ad files cannot exceed 1mb and must be submitted in one of the following formats: jpg, gif, png.
• One sponsor or advertiser may purchase multiple advertising spots. This is left to the discretion of the licensee.
• Once the annual channel licensing fee is paid in full the licensee may at its discretion prorate any remaining sponsor/advertisement spots at any time throughout the remainder of the license period. While prorating is allowed discounting is not. All prorated sponsorships/advertisements MUST be prorated at the starting rate of $5,000 per year ($13.70 per day).
• NativeBiz has no involvement in your financial transaction(s) with sponsors or advertisers. You simply provide us with the Image Ads for approval and posting. We do however reserve the right to decline any sponsor/advertiser at our sole discretion and for any reason.

Now let's do the math.

As a channel owner you can sell up to $50,000 in sponsorship/advertising annually and your channel licensing fee is only $20,000. That means your channel has the potential of generating revenues of up to $30,000 annually for your organization or institution.
