Sponsorships:

Monthly sponsors: Companies that pay monthly to sponsor GunGuyTV. (These sponsors have ads, product placements, interviews, etc. on GunGuyTV every month.)

One time sponsors: Companies that pay once to sponsor a dedicated video, podcast, or article. (These sponsors return periodically to promote a specific marketing campaign)

Affiliate Relationship: While I am happy to include affiliate marketing in a sponsorship relationship, I don’t accept affiliate only deals.

I’ll cover these individually.

This sponsorship includes everything listed below under “One Time Sponsor.” The difference is that a Monthly Sponsor has agreed to pay a fee to sponsor GunGuyTV for a minimum of six months.

Video:

This sponsorship includes a 15 second product promotional message at either the beginning or end of a video. The message includes a call to action (buy, join, etc.) and a link to your product/service page in the video’s description.

Podcast:

Note: Podcast episodes are syndicated on most podcast players including: iHeart, Spodify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, Rumble, X/Twitter, etc.

Ad placement:
- 30 second product promotional message within a half hour syndicated podcast episode.
- Includes a call to action (buy, join, etc.)

Interview:
- A dedicated podcast interview with a representative of your company to discuss the products / services you provide.

Websites:

A dedicated article about your product or service published on the GunGuyTV blog and/or the Practical Defense Systems website. The article includes a link to your product or service.
Website Ad Placement: You’re graphic ad placed on both the GunGuy.tv and Practical Defense Systems websites.

Payment Options:

Money: This really needs no explanation. We provide the services and you pay for them.

Barter: This is the exchange of value in goods and services. It is the oldest way of payment in existence. In essence, you provide a service or product that I need as payment of your sponsorship fees. Barter is done at full value. In other words, neither party discounts their fees. This works well because both parties are trading at full retail prices. Barter can be applied to either a Monthly or One Time sponsorship.
