For $200 a month we can offer the following: No Games, No Gimmicks, Just Good Exposure and Quality Traffic. Thimble Media, LLC is an online media firm that produces magazines, podcasts, radio shows and other publications for niche markets. We've worked with companies such as VH1, San Diego ConVis, Nintendo, Microsoft and others. Our brands have been featured in publications such as the NYTimes, Wired Magazine, BusinessWeek, Blogger and Podcaster Magazine, etc. Our flagship brand, Insomnia Radio, has shows in over 11 metro markets, including groundbreaking shows in Turkey, the UK and New Zealand. Jason Evangelho, our production manager, and host of Insomnia Radio, is one of the pioneers of podcasting and recently returned from California where he was a guest speaker at the Podcast and New Media Expo, the largest convention of its type. Here's an example of what we did for San Diego's tourism industry as well as for artists: http://www.signonsandiego.com/uniontrib/20070426/news_1b26music.html To introduce a new ad model, we are offering the works at an introductory rate. Here's what I can Offer You: 1. An "advertorial", or review that is an article posted within our music publication Indie Music Project (www.indiemusicproject.com). The article discusses the service as well as allows keyword positioning for SERPs. This article will then be shared throughout our network of Insomnia Radio sites (20+ PR4). 2. On each page of our network of sites a link to your site will be made available along with a logo or graphic. If you look at any of our sites you will see we do this currently with our featured artists. You will be listed as a "support the music" sponsor. 3. We will create audio "drops" and NPR style ads from our podcast and radio hosts that talk about your site and encourage our listeners to check it out. We have over 100,000 podcast listeners alone per month that download to their MP3 players and media players. We have even more listeners who stream from the websites and online radio. 4. Information concerning your site will be posted in our RSS feeds. With over 22 feeds of dedicated listeners as well as blog and article posts this adds long-tail opportunities. 5. *Optional* We can set up an interview to be recorded, think of it as an audio advertorial, where we discuss how your site came about and what you are trying to accomplish. Since we are influencers, this is a good way to get more people to check out your services. Some extras we may include you in: Distribution of our shows, and artists, with your message, through our own Azureus Vuze exclusive channel. The Vuze community is already ten million strong and growing by 500,000 people a week. We get 10's of thousands of additional listeners from here. An advantage podcasting has over blogs is the "long-tail". The long-tail theory as applied to economy, or more specifically advertising potential, can be stated as such: The aggregate of the consumption of the media, over its entire life cycle, is greater than the initial consumption upon release. An example of this reflects our listener base. While 10,000+ listeners will download our shows every week, 80% of all new listeners will download at least ten shows and 10% will download the entire catalog. This means that an advertiser does not just receive exposure at time of release, but over the entire life span of that episode. Their message ROI will be over three to six months for the episode aired, in same cases over a year. Some Market Details: Over 100,000 people listen to our podcasts via download each month and more listen to our online radio streams. 21 Premium Websites with a committed audience, including Insomnia Radio and Indie Music Project. Most are PR4 Rank. Over 21 dedicated RSS and Podcast feeds. Podcasts and feeds are distributed through our network as well as multiple new media sources such as iTunes, etc. Viral and Long-Tail marketing at its finest. Solid SERP results in our markets.
