Are you leaving money on the table?

More than 90% of paywall visitors are turned away daily. 

But it doesn't have to be that way!

Wednesday, Dec. 11

Noon EST | 11 a.m. CST | 10 a.m. MST | 9 a.m. PST

Join us on Wednesday, Dec. 11, at noon EST for a powerful webinar that reveals how any size newspaper can transform blocked paywall traffic into new net revenue.

Wade Bradley, co-founder and CEO of Make It Free, will detail a simple, plug-and-play, free-of-charge solution that monetizes paywall traffic you’re currently losing — boosting engagement and creating new revenue streams without any added costs or technical headaches.

In this session you'll learn:

• How Make It Free pays publishers $0.10 per free article viewed. This conservatively generates an annual $200K net revenue per one million people being turned away by your paywall monthly.
• How the solution captures consumer attention while driving engagement and future subscriptions.
• Why this system is already generating profits for newspapers and other publishers in the streaming and digital industries.

Who Should Attend: Publishers, CEOs, CROs and anyone focused on revenue growth.

Make It Free is currently generating revenue for numerous publishers in the newspaper and streaming industries. Find out how you can, too!
