BECOME A DIGITAL DEACONS MEDIA PARTNER

You Create the Content. We Help Bring You Advertisers.

Your podcast or YouTube channel has something valuable:

An audience that pays attention.

Digital Deacons helps independent podcasters, YouTubers and digital creators turn that audience into an additional revenue stream by connecting them with small businesses looking for targeted advertising opportunities.

You focus on creating great content.

We’ll focus on finding advertisers.

WHY PARTNER WITH DIGITAL DEACONS?

You Don’t Have to Sell Advertising Yourself.

Finding sponsors can be time-consuming.

You have to:

Find potential advertisers
Contact business owners
Explain your audience
Negotiate rates
Create proposals
Follow up
Collect payment
Coordinate advertising

That’s a lot of work when your real job is creating content.

Digital Deacons can handle much of that process for you.

We identify businesses that are looking for audiences like yours and match them with appropriate media partners in our network.

Your job:

Create great content.

Our job:

Help find advertisers who want to reach your audience.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

We’re particularly interested in independent media with engaged, clearly defined audiences.

You don’t need to have millions of followers.

In fact, that’s not necessarily what we’re looking for.

A podcast with 10,000 passionate baseball-card collectors can be more valuable to a baseball-card business than a general-interest channel with 100,000 viewers.

We are interested in:

🎙️ Podcasts

Sports
Entertainment
Hobbies
Collectibles
Gaming
Movies & television
Music
Business
Food
Lifestyle
Specialty interests

▶️ YouTube Channels

We’re interested in channels with loyal audiences and a clear subject matter.

📱 Other Digital Media

Depending on the campaign, we may also work with:

Newsletters
Digital publications
Online communities
Social media creators
Other independent media platforms

WHAT DIGITAL DEACONS CAN DO FOR YOU

Find Potential Advertisers

We’ll look for businesses whose products or services make sense for your audience.

Package Your Advertising Opportunity

We’ll help present your media property in a way that makes sense to potential advertisers.

Handle Advertiser Communication

When appropriate, we’ll communicate with the business on your behalf and coordinate the campaign.

Help Create Advertising Materials

If an advertiser needs a commercial, sponsorship message or other creative, Digital Deacons can help produce it.

Coordinate Campaigns

We’ll help make sure the advertiser’s campaign is delivered according to the agreed-upon terms.

YOU KEEP CREATING YOUR SHOW

We don’t want to change what makes your podcast or channel successful.

You remain in control of your content.

We simply want to help you monetize the audience you’ve already built.

Our goal is to create advertising partnerships that make sense for both sides.

The advertiser gets access to a valuable audience.

You generate additional revenue.

Your audience gets relevant products and services that may actually interest them.

Everybody wins.

WHAT DOES IT COST?

Nothing to Join.

There is no upfront fee to become a Digital Deacons Media Partner.

We work with you to establish your available advertising opportunities, rates and requirements.

When we bring you an advertiser and a campaign is successfully completed, Digital Deacons earns a portion of the sponsorship revenue for arranging and managing the relationship.

Your exact revenue share will depend on the campaign and the services Digital Deacons provides.

In other words:

You don’t pay us to find advertisers.

We get paid when we help create advertising revenue.

WHAT WE’LL NEED FROM YOU

Getting started is simple.

We’ll ask for information such as:

Your Media

Podcast or channel name
Platform(s)
Website
Social media accounts
Description of your content

Your Audience

Average downloads/views
Subscribers/followers
Geographic information, if available
Audience demographics, if available
Typical audience interests

Your Advertising Opportunities

Available ad formats
Sponsorship rates

Social media opportunities
Interview or sponsored-segment opportunities

We’ll use this information to determine which Digital Deacons advertising campaigns might be a good fit.

WHO IS A GOOD FIT?

We’re especially interested in independent creators who have:

✓ A clearly defined niche

✓ An engaged audience

✓ Consistent content

✓ Professional, advertiser-friendly programming

✓ A willingness to work with small-business advertisers

You don’t need to be famous.

You need to have an audience that cares about what you talk about.

LET’S TURN YOUR AUDIENCE INTO AN ASSET.

You’ve already done the hard part.

You’ve built the audience.

Let Digital Deacons help you find businesses that want to reach it.
