Featured Course
Streaming Monetization 101
Instructed by: Jan Ozer
Learn how streaming services build profitable and sustainable businesses by combining strategy, technology, and execution. The course begins with the core business models: subscription, advertising, FAST, vMVPD, and hybrid. You’ll see how each model drives decisions about pricing, packaging, and content. From there, you’ll explore monetization mechanics including CPM, ARPU, churn, dynamic pricing, and yield optimization. You’ll learn how companies acquire content, attract subscribers, and grow revenue through data, targeting, and personalized recommendations. In under seven hours, you’ll have a working understanding of the full monetization engine and how to contribute both strategically and technically within any streaming organization.
