Why A Filmmaker’s Email List of Fans is
More Powerful than Any Other Type of Email Campaign.
Email will always be around; even as social networking apps come and go. An email list gives the independent filmmaker a direct channel to their fans without the interference of algorithms or advertisements. With email, you control the audience, which puts you in the ideal position to develop a loyal following.
Social media makes it hard to get your audience to focus or “take action” as their thread is cluttered with news and advertisement that take away attention from your efforts to communicate with fans. Email is inherently transactional, which is why the recipient is more likely to click through your Referral Link to subscribe to OPPRIME.tv. In short, connecting with your fans is far better using email than social media.
“OPPRIME.tv positions this rule at the very heart of the advice that we give to independent filmmakers. We also spend a lot of time convincing filmmakers that email is more important than their YouTube views, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram followers.”
--Sal Framondi, CEO/Founder of OPPRIME.tv
Simple & Amazing – How the Math Works!
The subscriber pays $5.00 per month. The monthly commission royalty splits for each transaction are:
$2.25 for the filmmaker.
$2.25 for OPPRIME.tv.
.50¢ for processing the payment.
You send out an email promoting a subscription to OPPRIME.tv through your film’s Referral Link, the cost to subscribe is $5.00 per month:
We email your 500 fans, with an 80% open rate = 400
Of that 80% (400) only 70% click on the Referral Link to subscribe to OPPRIME.tv = 280
From that 70% (280), 70% click the Referral Link and subscribe to OPPRIME.tv = 196 people x $5.00 subscription
The total revenue for the email campaign = $980.00 per month
The total revenue for the filmmaker per month is = $441.00 per month.
