Ask A Ninja How To Make $300K
Jan 30th, 2007 | By James Lewin | Category: Digital Video Downloads, Making Money with Podcasts, Video, Video Podcasts, VlogsKent Nichols, Douglas Sarine, and the Ninja have announced that they’ve signed a major ad deal.
“We have signed with Federated Media to handle all of our advertising,” they note. “We’re really excited to be working with John Battelle and the crew over there. They’ve got a great track record and really seem to be author friendly. Most importantly we will still be able to advertise in a way that doesn’t interfere with our show.”
While they don’t mention numbers, others are reporting the deal to be worth $300k upfront, plus 60% of revenue.
“While Andrew Baron at Rocketboom recently said the show raked in a little over $272,000 last year, this is a good deal more,” said Businessweek’s Heather Green. “But for this to reach more than just a few video blogs, I think this will have to be the year of metrics.”
Ask a Ninja is a short video podcast that features the Ninja’s answers, which usually involve killing everyone, to life’s burning questions.
I first stumbled on this on YouTube and have been hooked ever since. It is very funny and original.
