Can I order TV news clips and News Monitoring Reports on an as needed basis?

Do you require a service contract?
No. You can start or stop service anytime your needs change. We believe that the value of our service and our commitment to continually innovate and invest in taking care of our clients is what will motivate you to stay with us — not a contract. We are proud of the fact that most of our clients have been long term subscribers (many for over ten years).
What video formats do you provide for video news clips?
We can provide TV news clips in just about any format you need. Most of our clients prefer digital delivery of segments, but we can also provide a DVD of your TV news clips. Formats frequently delivered to our clients include: DVD, Windows Media File, Quicktime, MP4, MPEG2, and Flash. All clip formats can be delivered via an emailed link that allows you to quickly view, share, and download your media coverage.
How much does your media monitoring service cost?
Our clients have unique media monitoring needs and a one size fits all approach is not how we price our services. Each client has different needs. Some clients only need to monitor TV news in one city for one topic. Other clients need to monitor all TV news, online news, and social media outlets for many search profiles in all markets. We build custom media monitoring and media analysis solutions for our clients everyday. Contact us and we will build a custom media monitoring solution for your unique needs at a very cost effective rate.
How much do video news clips cost?
Prices for video clips start as low as $45 per clip. Factors that determine pricing for videos include market location and number of segments ordered. Significant discounts on video clips are provided to our subscribers. Most of our clients enjoy unlimited video previews and the ability to edit and save unlimited video clips as part of their subscription to our proactive media monitoring services.
How do you bill me for services?
