During the interview, Matthew shared his expertise in building successful OTT (Over-the-Top) services, particularly for niche content providers. He discussed:
- Targeting Specific Audiences: In a market flooded with video services, understanding and identifying your core audience is more critical than ever. Matthew delves into the importance of audience segmentation and tailoring content to meet their unique needs and preferences.
- Monetization Strategies: The conversation explored the various ways video services can drive revenue, including hybrid models that combine subscription, ad-supported (AVOD), and transactional (TVOD).
- Creating a Unique Value Proposition: For OTT services to stand out, they must offer something unique. Whether it’s exclusive content, innovative features, or exceptional user experiences, carving out a distinct niche is essential for long-term success.
