30 or 60 Second Ad Read/Testimonial
Can either be a standard read per advertiser’s requested (and provided) copy, or something we create exclusively for our audience. This is a per-quarter option that will be charged based on an agreed-upon CPM (cost per 1000 downloads).
Monthly Partnership
We will provide a 30-second ad read or product testimonial per episode. Additionally, the WE crew will shoot and share social media content of products being used in the field . This partnership is available quarterly, six-month or one-year options, and will receive weighted coverage whenever possible in any projects/articles the hosts produce for relevant audiences in their photography and writing profession. Because we limit the number of advertisers per episode, fees for monthly partnership vary depending on the length of agreement and depth of involvement. Financial incentives will be provided for longer-term partnerships.
