Our take
The masses may click on interesting stories, video, music and other media, but building a lucrative business around that content can be a struggle, with advertising-based models often providing little in the way of margins except for the very biggest properties.
Advertising, publishing, and digital content distribution are major aspects for many businesses that can be time consuming and difficult to manage internally.
Minute Media offers a dedicated content distribution and publishing platform for global sports and entertainment brands. Offering end-to-end services in advertising and publishing for digital content, the company aims to maximise operational efficiencies to save businesses time and money.
