The business model of bizblip can not rely on advertising. Our focus, early stage tech startups, will never attract the interest of 50,000 readers — so we’ll never have our work supported by advertisers. Our work costs money, time, effort and skill. To support our work, we have paid subscribers. To that end, our written news is behind a paywall. We’d like it to stay there. But we’ve been approached by a few entrepreneurs who want to share with the world the coverage we’ve initiated on their company (our work product), for which we did not charge them because we are not working as their PR firm or contractors. To accommodate founders who REALLY want to take our work product and use it for their promotion, we offer digital reprint rights, and will unlock a story for $250.
