How to Make Money From Your Content Library with Matthew Frank - Audio Only Version

Matthew Frank has spent over 30 years at the top of television rights and distribution. He built RDF Rights from the ground up, ran Zodiak Rights as CEO generating revenues exceeding $80 million across 200 broadcasters worldwide, and now runs Rocket Rights and Rights Booster, helping content owners exploit their libraries across VOD platforms, FAST channels, and YouTube.

In this conversation Matthew breaks down exactly how the content monetisation landscape has shifted and where the real opportunities are right now. He explains why linear broadcasters are no longer the gatekeepers they once were, how FAST channels and YouTube are reshaping what distribution actually means, and why brands are becoming the new commissioners of content.

We also get into the story behind Wife Swap — the format that nearly never got made — and the remarkable case of French YouTuber Inoxtag, who turned a 9 million subscriber following into a 50 million view documentary that sold out 200 cinemas in France before it ever hit YouTube.

Whether you are a documentary filmmaker, archive manager, rights executive, or content owner trying to navigate a fragmented market, this episode gives you the frameworks and honest industry intelligence you need.
