RTV students at Texas A&M-Commerce would like to make a TV commercial for your business.

There is no catch. You agree to serve as a client, where they come gather facts from you about the business, shoot video that relates to your business and possibly have you speak as the owner on camera about your business—and/or help arrange 3-4 testimonial on-camera speakers about your business.

THEN—when we are though, within a few weeks, we’ll show you the production. If you like it and can make use of it—as a fund-raiser for our National Broadcasting Society students to go to the national convention, you can buy a DVD and digital file copy for $50 and use it as you wish, on local cable advertising, on your web site, etc. PLUS, if you buy it, we will also run it for the rest of the semester FREE OF CHARGE within our shows that we produce and run on Time-Warner Cable Channel 3 / digital 97, as well as on Channel 3 that is fed to all the dorms on campus. Plus, if you want, we will also include it in the upload file of our shows when we post them on our YouTube Channel for anyone anywhere to watch.

Finally, if you buy it, we will give you the opportunity in future Fall and Spring semesters to pay $50 at the start of each semester to get the commercial run for that full semester in our TV programs in the same way as described above. Doing a new production later would have a new $50 production charge plus a $50 charge for running the ad during the semester.

But again—we will not pressure you to buy anything—it will be your choice once you see the commercial. All we’re asking from you is to serve as a client for a student, who will need to come and work with you in the coming week. They will not take a lot of your time.

Thanks!

Tony DeMars, Professor and RTV Division Director
