Owning a TV channel is a great way to connect with your audience, and make additional revenue. If you are planning to start your own TV channel, you may not know how the process works. In this article, we have explained all the essential steps you need to take before launching your own TV channel.
Ask Yourself These Questions…
The first thing you need to do is make a proper plan and ask yourself the following questions..
Why do I want to launch this channel? Is it to create awareness, earn revenue, or promote your company? Find the purpose.
What type of content will you produce? Will it be related to entertainment, sports, news, or any other category?
Will you share pre-recorded content, or will you come live? Or maybe do a little bit of both?
Will you produce your content, or purchase it from content producers?
Conduct thorough research while finding answers to these questions. Discuss these questions with your team members to learn what ideas they have in mind. Move to the next step only when you have found answers to these questions.
Choose your studio location to Start Your
Own TV Channel
Next, you need to create a studio where you can generate content, and perform all the related activities. Many beginners start with a small studio, either in their basement or in their offices. Once you start generating money from your channel, you can move to a bigger studio with more space. You would need it to store the equipment that you would need to grow!
Collect technical equipment
You need technical equipment like cameras, lighting, microphones, to create and record your content. There are many types of technical tools available in the market, so make sure you do your research before investing in them. The second-hand market is also good for this purpose.
Secure a broadcasting licence
Anyone who wants to broadcast on UK television must have a broadcasting licence from Ofcom. The licence will show that you are legally allowed to broadcast on UK TV to a British audience.
To get the licence, you need to fill out an application form, and send it to Ofcom either via post or email. They will review your application, and accept it if it meets their criteria.
Collaborate with advertising agencies
You need to contact advertising agencies to make revenue using your channel. They will contact you on their own if they find your channel profitable.
