Generating Revenue 
Repeat viewers can be 20% of your 
audience but 
How do you generate revenue without 
pissing off your audience?
The Chicken and the Egg problem 
 Nobody can create content without a 
revenue source! 
 Sponsors want their ads in your content 
but, audiences dont like evasive ads! 
Its a BALANCE.
Why Engagement is Important 
 Twitch TV says the main reason for 
subscribing is to support the 
broadcaster. 
 Traditional sports integrate their content 
with their sponsors to avoid poor 
audience engagement.
Video vs. Written Word 
Unless you are an elite writer, you are 
doing it WRONG if, you havent gone into 
video. - Rod Breslau 
Chris Radtke, the cost of producing video 
is still more EXPENSIVE than the written 
word.
Balance is the KEY to success! 
The game looks BEAUTIFUL so, video 
content can literally just make itself from 
your bedroom webcam and some creative 
editing. 
You can make a TON of content from 
gameplay analysis and commentary.
Introverts Need NOT Apply! 
You: 
can NOT be shy and expect opportunity to 
find YOU! 
MUST PROMOTE YOURSELF! 
...and FIGHT FOR IT!
