Volume vs. Value● Digital Sales● Volume?● Need to have a lot of transactions to make a profit● Hollywood can play the volume game

Success on VOD?● Digital copies range from $9.99 - $19.99● Digital rentals range from $0.99 - $4.99● Earning $100,000 on VOD is considered a success● How many transactions are required to be a success?● 5,000 transactions for digital copies● 25,000 - 100,000 transactions for digital rentals

Reality Bites ...● 25,000 transactions doesn’t seem like a stretch for
Hollywood studios …● But what about the über indie filmmaker?● The film without any “stars” or distribution?● Can these über indie films generate 25,000
transactions?● Even if you did generate 25,000 transactions, does
earning $50,000-$100,000 in revenue match your expectations in profits?

Reality Bites Even Harder ...● Most indie films selling on VOD are only generating
about 500-1,000 transactions● Average earnings are about $1,000-$5,000● Why make a film for $50,000-$200,000 if your VOD
earnings average $1,000-$5,000?

Value NOT Volume● If über indie filmmakers are only generating 500-1,000
transactions per film …● Why sell it for $3.00?● Indie filmmakers can’t compete in the volume game● Compete in the “value” game● But how?
