SPONSORSHIPS
Get your company or brand in front of over 10 million viewers per month on our YouTube channel. You pick the camera of your choice from our existing lineup and have your information listed in the description of that particular live feed. We will also insert live messages directly into our family friendly chats with a link to your site during Prime Time and throughout the day. These are particularly popular because this also keeps that camera free to the public as a result of your sponsorship and we’ll be sure to let our viewers know about this on a regular basis both in the chats as well as the description.
