shadowmaster Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Are certain PPV carriers more apt to split profits with you than others? I have gotten my 1st PPV deal for 12 months, signing with Premier Pay TV which covers all US regions. However, the deal had 100% of profits going to the carrier. What can I do next time to make a little money?
Stennick Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 It depends on the company, I can get 70% with some carriers with SWF. Most of the time your looking 80 or 90 though I would imagine.
shadowmaster Posted December 15, 2008 Author Posted December 15, 2008 ok, wasnt sure what to expect - but I'll have to try for a little something better next time
Stennick Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 What promotion are you? Whats your size? What country? What pay per view company? All of these things factor in not too mention wrestling industry grade and economy grade.
pepper2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 The bigger the promotion and the more popular gives and the size of the carrier are all factors in the split revenues. The bigger the PPV carrier the bigger the profit, but the more they will demand more of the profit. If you rush to cult odds are you wont gain any profit from the PPV , but instead gain pain ,suffering and higher production cost.
shadowmaster Posted December 15, 2008 Author Posted December 15, 2008 My fed is Global Wrestling Fed, my own creation. It is based in US and is cult level. It is 2011 and the industry is falling after a short surge. TCW and SWF have fallen on hard times and are also cult level
pepper2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 It seems your company is not yet that popular to gain any profit from Premier, did you rush to cult? I dont believe the economy has anything to do with it. In 5SSW game , I manage to get a PPV deal on April upon reaching Cult with 10% profit with F- Economy and D- Wrestling Industry
shadowmaster Posted December 15, 2008 Author Posted December 15, 2008 I dont know if I rushed to cult - It took me 3 years to get there.
pepper2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 What are the popularity of your regions?
shadowmaster Posted December 16, 2008 Author Posted December 16, 2008 In the US, my popularity is D+ across the board except Puerto Rico where it is C-. E across the board in Canada E- in Mexico
pepper2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Well, I guess, since Premier TV is classified as Big PPV and your just Cult it is giving you nothing in terms of profit. Try going for smaller PPV. Try a medium size PPV like PPV 4-U and U-Demand, they will give you better percentage than 0% profit sharing.
shadowmaster Posted December 16, 2008 Author Posted December 16, 2008 One last question about PPV's, can you have more than one?
pepper2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 One PPV per area of the World, basing on you popularity you might get a PPV in Canada from a small or very small carrier.
