Income

Money One way that a company can get money to continue filming existing shows or even create new ones is through sponsors. This works through another company paying the production company or distribution company to advertise their product at the end of a programme etc. For example Bavaria beer pays the distribution company to advertise their product sponsoring Benidorm. Also, just like they do for advertisement, Endemol are funded by the money they make through their games, books and merchandise of their TV programmes.

Advertisement To advertise a programme, details about the new series of the show is posted on social media such as Facebook and Twitter around a month before the programme is about to air each year. Also, trailers of the new series of the show will be shown on the channel a month in advance to get the viewers intrigued and make them want to watch when the programme airs. These trailers will also be uploaded to You tube and eventually get onto Facebook and other social media. Another way that Endomol will advertise their product is through product placement. For many of their programmes, Endemol have created games whether that be board or virtual, books about the programmes and also general merchandise such as T-shirts, other clothing, etc.
