1. Media kit
What is the Speaking English Podcast,
how many people are watching, and how you can
get involved!
Status: August 15th, 2010.
Stats were gathered August 7th-8th 2010.
2. About the host
My name is Sebastian Keil and I am the host
of the Speaking English Podcast. I am 36 years
old, have studied American Literature,
Language and Culture, and have been blogging
since 2004/5. My daytime job is consulting
with an advertising agency.
I live in Hamburg, Germany,
with my wife, 2 kids and a
cat.
3. About the show
The Speaking English Podcast is a bi-weekly
video podcast. Usually, I explain the
difference between a pair of words that non-
native speakers might easily confuse, or the
correct pronunciation of each of the words.
4. About the distribution
The Speaking English Podcast is distributed
over the major video portals Blip.tv,
YouTube, Dailymotion, Metacafe, MySpace
and more. The main „feed“ for the show
which you see in iTunes comes from Blip.tv,
the other portals are kept behind slighty.
5. About the distribution
Numbers:
More than 1 (one) million video
views in the last 12 months (on
blip.tv alone!)
Approx. 5.000 views/episode after 10 days
Approx. 10.000 views/episodes after 4 weeks
7. Be part of the show
Personally, I think this makes most sense. If
your product is on the show, you are part of
all the views it gets, no matter on what
portal the video is distributed. In other
words:
In-Show-Sponsoring
Remember: More than 1 million
video views in the last 12 months
8. Be part of the show
And I do not have a problem mentioning
your excellent video camera, reference
book, soft drink, software, socks or whatever
product you want to sell, or even use it on
screen or to produce show.* I will do it my
way: your message – in my words.
*Of course that is not all of it. All offers are subject to my veto. Naturally, some products may fit
better than others to the program.
9. Post-roll ads
Not as powerful as product placement, and
less views, since not everybody watches a
video til the end. If you want to advertise
your product in your own, controlled
surroundings, then post-roll ads are your way
to go.
10. Banner ads
If you are interested in booking banner ads,
you should use 2.5k page visits and 5k page
impressions as frame of reference.
11. Join the ride
Bundles/long-term forms are of course totally
negotiable. Payment through hardware, e.g. a new
MacBook Pro as well. ;-)
Give me a call.
