Welcome to the Avail Advisor – an online portal that provides our affiliates with individualized, tailor-made guidance and consultation throughout the entire deployment process, including pre-launch, launch, and ongoing post-commercial launch support, from conception through to implementation.
Avail Media has developed the Avail Advisor because we have a vested interest in our affiliates' success. If you don't grow your subscriber base, we don't grow our bottom line. It's that simple.
Channel Line-Up Builder
Avail Media's content division will assist you in developing a customized, tailor-made, and competitive channel line-up to appeal to your subscriber base and suit the demographics of your market. We'll help you evaluate incumbent competition, market demands, and consumer trends. Once you decide which channels you want to include, you will need to clear both transport and affiliate rights in order to distribute those channels to your subscribers. To this end, you can leverage Avail Media's transport rights, and we will navigate you through the process of obtaining the necessary transport consent authorizations from each of the programming networks. At the same time, Avail Media has partnered with a variety of Affiliate Consortia, through which you have a number of options for obtaining the affiliate rights you need to commercially launch your IPTV services, and the business implications associated with the choices available to you. The business of content license rights is a cumbersome and confusing one, and the process can be intimidating to the most seasoned media professionals.
