Background

About Robert Ellis

Directs all aspects of operations, subscriber growth, user interface, OEM partnerships, app store releases, content acquisition, distribution and marketing strategy for SalemNOW, paid podcast subscriptions and eCommerce stores. Looks for marketplace disruptions, identifies the specific revenue opportunities from those disruptions and creates a detailed action plan to capitalize on the revenue opportunities. Recognizing that video content delivery and consumption began shifting from traditional broadcast platforms to smart devices and streaming platforms, I headed the launch of the OTT app, SalemNOW. This has since become the leading OTT streaming app for conservative and faith-based film distribution. Entrepreneurial vision has also led to the creation of a satellite broadcasting network, the development of digital content distribution web-sites and digital advertising sales. New revenue channels have been structured with groups such as: A&W Brands, Coca Cola, Frito Lay, NBC Universal, the U.S. Navy, Dick Clark, Turner Broadcasting, national broadcasting personalities, top U.S. advertising agencies and award winning film makers.
