Commercialising Fan Generated Content #SharkCastTV
SharkCastTV – Fan Generated Content
As a lifetime, die-hard, born and bred Sharks fan, I love our iconic special guest on SharkCastTV this Thursday night in the lead up for the local Sharks vs Dragons footy derby played this weekend.
In regards to the show, from a digital media fan engagement perspective, this idea is something I’ve been working on for many years to bring to market and commercialise – ie the ability to commercialise fan or user-generated video content.
That’s not to say it will be successful, there are costs and audience targets to achieve. but hopefully the building blocks are right – engaging content, presenters, authentic and professionally produced (within a Football Club resource framework) – only time will tell.
In making this happen I must acknowledge how very fortunate to have the right talent with an existing platform of listeners, readers and experience on which to enrich the product. plus a supporting open-minded management team looking to position the Sharks as more than just a football club.
Commercially very pleased to say we have also secured CrownBet our show presenting partner.
Note: Others show ideas in the pipeline – one step at a time.

The FACE – Focus Attention on Customer Experience
The FACE Approach
Focus Attention on Customer Experience
We’re naturally attracted to things of beauty.
YOU THE CONSUMER – Every day we are all bombarded with tens of thousands of messages requesting our attention but only a very small fraction of those get through our highly efficient message filters. Why did you click? What makes a good communications piece?
YOU THE CONTENT PROVIDER – You’ve been asked to present to the board, pitch to a new client, come up with a new ad campaign or write a script for a TV show – What do you need to say? What does success look like?
THE SUPERSTAR SYNDROME – Very few actors, musicians, sports people achieve global market penetration. Far less advertising with the natural power to engage, connect and spread.
Most target, interrupt and aim to convert.
Every piece has different challenges – eg a website video – 7 seconds before the user decides to click away or stay. A Banner Ad blocked! A TV commercial the signal to the viewer to get up and make a cup of tea. A social media post that is boring or spam.
Good design effortlessly (from the consumer perspective) delivers a clear focused message, captures attention and enhances the customer experience. The best design looks simple. The right medium, the right message at the right time.
Who is your customer? What do they look like? What are their needs? How will you reach and get through their message filter? What does your action pipeline look like?
