The problem it solves
Facilitates networking, skill sharing, and exposure for aspiring marketers and coders while providing entertainment for viewers.
How it makes money
Entry fees for competitors, ticket sales for spectators, and potential sponsorship from tech companies.
Skills you need
Event coordination, marketing, technical knowledge in coding, and live-streaming expertise.
The market, and why this works now
Live-streaming platforms like Twitch have increased consumer interest in real-time competitions, making the Vibe Marketing Competition timely. A potential first-revenue move involves promoting the event on marketing-focused subreddits, such as r/marketing, where a community of marketers can engage and participate. A key risk is the initial capital required to secure venue space and streaming equipment, which could impact cash flow before ticket sales and sponsorships generate revenue.
