Why partner with us

Real North Carolina stories, told by and for the people who live them.

01

Local, on purpose

Our viewers come for North Carolina. Your ad reaches people who care about their county, their city and the businesses in it.

02

Seen, not skipped

Sponsor spots run inside the channel itself, as part of the show, not as a banner people scroll past.

03

Part of the movement

Sponsors are presented as supporters of North Carolina culture. That is a story your customers will want to share.

Where your brand shows up

Every placement links straight to your website.

Video ad before our videos

Your video plays right before I’M SO NC videos across the website and on I’M SO NC TV. Viewers can skip after 5 seconds, and a button on the ad sends them straight to your website. Every week runs Sunday to Sunday.

Questions

How long does a sponsorship run?

Weekly packages run Sunday to Sunday. Book as many weeks as you want and stop anytime. Featured Stories and Game Day sponsorships are one-time.

What do I need to send?

Your logo (a PNG with a clear background works best), your website link and a short tagline if you’d like one. For a Featured Story, we’ll set up a time to film.

How do I send my video ad?

After we set up your plan, we’ll send you a private upload link. Send an MP4 file (16:9, 1080p works best). If you don’t have an ad yet, we can make one for you.

Can people skip my video ad?

Yes, after 5 seconds. Put your business name and offer up front so viewers see it even if they skip.

Can I sponsor my own county or town?

Yes. Tell us which county in the form and we’ll put together a local option for you.

Do you work with non-profits and schools?

Yes. Reach out and let us know what you have in mind.
