    How to turn a video into cash

    You can find out more about how to sell a story on our Sell My Story page, or about selling photos here. On this page, we’re going to talk about how to turn a video into cash.

    When a consultant, who has asked not to be named, received a video on Whatsapp showing an 18st naked stripper clambering on top of a recruitment exec, he decided to call Talk to the Press.

    He spoke to reporter Isolde Walters and explained that the shocking video was taken in the office of James White, winner of The Apprentice.

    Isolde asked the consultant to send the video and any other proof he had.

    She was shocked by the inappropriate clip which showed the stripper straddling the exec while wearing just a policeman’s hat and knee-high boots as his managers pinned him down on the floor.

    Isolde asked for extra evidence and, when she received it, she immediately wrote up a memo for the story. She called our source and read through the memo with him so that she was sure he was happy with it.

    How we sell your video for cash

    Within an hour of the source calling the office, editor Joe Mellor had placed the story with our contacts at The Sun for a significant fee.

    The paper was extremely keen on the story and put calls in to check all the facts. The Sun made a significant offer in order to run the story as an exclusive.

    When we were informed that the story would be The Sun front page, we negotiated an even higher fee for our source.

    The story gained great coverage in the paper – ensuring our source was financially rewarded for sharing his story. The story also raised awareness of the awful sexist culture in James White’s recruitment firm, Right Time Recruitment.

    Getting the most money for your video

    Now the story has been used as an exclusive, Talk to the Press is in the process of arranging further online deals for publications to use the shocking video. We ensure that our source is paid each time it appears on a news site. We teamed up with Google become the only agency in the world with an online system that tracks each use of your video, and your payments.

    By going with Talk to the Press, our source ensured he could get his video out there and make the most money possible while raising much needed awareness of the sexist atmosphere in the recruitment company.

    Most importantly he was able to protect his identity. Talk to the Press is able to guarantee anonymity and act as a barrier between you and the publication.
