OTT is at boom and internet TV has replaced the traditional means. A lot has changed in terms of how people watch TV today. Having seen a huge shift in viewers’ behavior in recent times, it has become essential to offer an out-of-the-box viewing experience in order to keep them intact.
I’m sure you’ve built a great video library and are offering a great mix of different models for your audience to enjoy their favorite content on-demand….But wait! What if I tell you there is something more you can do to keep them engaged on your platform.. Why not consider launching your own LIVE OTT TV Channel, and make your OTT platform run exactly like a linear TV network… !
Wouldn’t it be amazing if you can be the owner of an entire TV Network having multiple channels from Movies and TV show to Sports and Entertainment, running 24×7, repurposing and recycling the same on-demand content you have in your library, thus not causing you a dime in increased content acquisition expenses? I’m sure your viewer’s are not going anywhere else if they have the simplicity of watching all their favorite TV shows, handpicked and scheduled for every lazy day they walk in, along with a myriad of interesting on-demand videos to binge-in. They are simply going to love their favorite Live Sports scheduled in one channel and Popular Music videos in another. And what’s best than creating a live TV channel of a popular series that you know people would love to jump in to watch anytime, anywhere on their favorite OTT platform.
People today only watch the content they’re able to find easily and switch-out in search of something interesting to a new platform? Why not target that impatient segment with the concept of a scheduled TV channel offering programmed content? An OTT TV that plays their favorite programming 24×7 and even tells them what’s up the next week and if you have a hit such as Breaking Bad featuring on your platform. Wouldn’t it be interesting to entice your subscribers with a promo of an upcoming series you’re going to host exclusively on your platform? Damn they aren’t going anywhere else for sure.
