My Journey selling IPTV (online television service)

[XrumerGeek]

Mind me asking how u accept payments through paypal? Do you buy the accounts or what?

Yes, PayPal stealth accounts. Quick google will give you the info you need.
Diversify how you accept payments - payment links, money requests, and "store front" aka cloaked, methods.

It's been more than a month since you had your first batch of clients, so I'm curious if they renewed, or how many of them renewed?

I know you have them in your fb dm and whatsapp, but do you also collect their email? It'd be good to send emails to the ones who stop renewing and bring them back.

Do you still use manual bank transfers for payments?

Good luck!

Well I didn't get a lot of customers on the first month, only 26, and around half of them paid for 2 months so I didn't do much renewals.

Of the 10-15 renewals I had, only 1 of them cancelled, and the reason was that it didnt work good for them (freezing, due to their device/internet). This customer bought a nflix account from me before, so trusting me, bought the IPTV service without really using the demo acc.. then it didn't work good so they did not renew.

So basically renew rate is 90%+, but I didn't have much samples to truly say.

I will have a better number next month, as I have a lot of renewals to do. But I feel confident about this, since I let customers try the demo without hurry and give excellent support after.


No I am not collecting emails, but I will start trying it with the website. I won't push it tho, I don't like getting personal information from customers.

Yes I am still working fully with manual payments, and I actually love it. I will keep exploring this way even with the website.

Thanks

Hi man. I’m looking for a partner, and you seem like a perfect fit. I used to run a successful IPTV business in 2023 that generated solid revenue, but I had to pause due to time constraints with my other ventures. I still have a strong interest in this business and don't want to let it go, which is why I'm searching for someone who can handle certain aspects.

I can support you in SCALING QUICKLY. I already have the hosting, website, payment gateway, a UK company for processing payments, and the knowledge and creative strategies needed to succeed.

If you are interested, reach out to my instagram ennemipublicn1_

Good luck never loose hope.

Do you use a CRM software? How are you tracking customer subscriptions?

 

[jskinnerd]

This is the worst strategy which i've ever seen in my whole career as IPTV provider believe me you are doing everything wrong mate.

What would you do? Ads?

Hey, notice this is a few weeks old. Hopefully you got the help. I know nothing about IPTV reselling. However, I know about sales for air space/commercials for IPTV. When we sell the air space most of the customers already have a sales funnel set up. The conversion boils down the simplicity or the proposal. You will have to restructure your tact. It’ll take 5-7 days tops for you to get a functional site, some landing pages(3), email, text and call autos and etc. With all the tech now a days, you should not be manually having any communication with potential clients. Email lists are big too. If you got 4 warm leads off 150-200 cold messaging then you should get 40 for every 1500-2000 messages. Hopefully you can close 50% of the 40. It’s a lot more too it but it wouldn’t take more than 1 week to see back your 130$. You could bag dog poop, make a site and sell more than 130$ a week tbh. Your cost seem to be pretty low for whatever you’re doing, you just have to restructure some things. Best of Luck

Do you use a CRM software? How are you tracking customer subscriptions?

Yes I use a CRM software made in Python with chatGPT, mostly focused on doing renewals, it also has customer info of course, and stats about the business. I also back up all the info in Excel.

Great progress man, keep pushing

Thanks, I am working on my website and finishing the sales funnel to work in that way you mention.

But honestly I am not sure its the best approach as you and others suggest. I am having great success working this way, and I notice how important it is in this business to be 1 on 1 with your customers. If you don't, then you are limiting your public reach to only those who know how to do everything themselves. And trust me they are the least. But everybody watches TV.

I appreciate your advice anyways, and I know it works, and I am pursuing it too, for the sake of mastering everything and not just one side.

I will update at the end of the month regarding renewal %. As of now I have a 95.24% of renewal, I know this thanks to my customer management software.

I think you should try investing some money in some advertising campaigns to find profit, your way of working is not effective.

IPTV is a type of online streaming where tv channels are streamed usually in an android app. The service I'm working with has 1800 live channels, 20.000 movies on demand, and 1900

My piracy channel site costs nothing, the problem is if I make it mainstream the loophole will get patched and all will get no traction, and I ffn hate Netflix.

I have some IPTV clients in Switzerland and France, they spend 300$ per day for more than 2 months regularly. Maybe their campaign is good as they keep sending more reserve balance

Bro, it has started with DM spamming on Facebook in the first place and it hasn't been that much time. I assume he's got some other businesses that he also needs to focus on and if I'm not wrong, it's a journey. Not like "invest in this business thousands of dollars and you'll be rich AF" stuff.

I think we should see how things go on the entreprenur's side and wish the best.

I mean if he wants to advertise his agency business its ok

Thanks for your comments!

btw: I am already running ads! ( its all in the topic ) I don't need to put 300$ a day on it, I dont have who to reply that many people lol. Things take a day or two.

Success

Hi BHW. I have been wanting to join the forum for some time but anyways wasn't doing any online business, I have decided to go again and start an IPTV business.

So I thought it was good time to get in the forum, as I have something to share.

Please don't send me messages about the IPTV provider or anything related, you can ask in the thread. Channels are suited for my region anyway.


Lets get right into it

IPTV is a type of online streaming where tv channels are streamed usually in an android app. The service I'm working with has 1800 live channels, 20.000 movies on demand, and 1900 tv shows on demand.

I tested it and it works pretty good, 95% stable I would say, meaning here and then some channel will stop working. But if you text this guy, he fixes it quickly. Good quality and it doesn't have a lot of unnecessary channels that only annoy the user.

I don't have experience with this particular product, but its not my first rodeo


Day 1: closing the deal

- I closed the deal with an IPTV owner to pay him a fixed amount of $130 every month, with rights for me to create unlimited customer accounts, add tv shows or movies into the system, and add live channels if customers request so. I can also create reseller panels to sell credits in bulk for other people to work.

This deal is of course only favorable for me in the long term, when I start selling so many accounts that those $130 divides into a great price per acc. Right now is a bad deal, because I could have just started with a lot less buying only the needed credits.

Anyway I wanted to do it this way. If I get to a point where I have 300-500 clients, this deal will be great for me. And if I don't, then I'm a bitch and nothing matters



- After closing the deal and checking the web panel to get familiar with how to create customer accounts and reseller panels, I did some Facebook DM spam. I am targeting people from my country.

The reason I didn't went straight into AD buying, is because
1) I want to try this method of free advertising, I dont really have a lot of money for this.
and 2) I had a scheduled meeting with a graphic designer that the iptv owner recommended me. I can do the graphics myself, but this guy supposedly was already getting good results and bla bla.

This meeting was at the end of the day (not really but I work night shifts so my end of day is really the morning) and I just had it. He did not show much enthusiasm and I think I will just do the ads myself. Besides I asked him for examples and he only had 1.


I already have 3 FB accounts that I used tonight for sending DMS. I took notes of what I did so I am putting it here:
(the noted time is when I finished the action for ex I finished sending 26 msgs in acc Fb1 at 3:15am)

Facebook 1:
26 msg sent 3:15 am
17 msg sent 3:19 am
blocked from sending messages

Here I got blocked from sending messages. I guess 43 messages non stop was too much.

still blocked 5:24 am
Posted in marketplace 5:40am / blocked
tried again marketplace / blocked

Here I tried posting a TV photo in marketplace and selling the service in description, but it kept getting blocked and it was too many words to be trying to find out the banned one so I gave up. This account actually had many items sold before as I really used it. The post actually got insta-approved but then deleted for banned words.

still blocked 7:11 am
posted in like 30 groups 7:44 am

Here I posted in some market-like groups from my country.

Facebook 2:
17 msg sent 4:42 am
10 msg sent 5:08 am
10 msg sent 6:02 am
10 msg sent 7:01 am
10 msg sent 7:50 am

This account is also aged but basically no use at all. Blank. But it performed much better in the DM sending. Seeing this numbers was interesting, and got me thinking about where are the limits. (as always)

I'm managing this accounts in the Hidemyacc free-trial, using the IP rotation of my mobile hotspot to not mix the accounts in the same IP.

Facebook 3:
20 msj sent 8:13 am
20 msj sent 8:44 am

For my last account, I went full blast and sent 40 messages. I actually started the second round at like 8:37. Im just leaving some more seconds between message and message. Account sent the last message with no problem and I decided to leave it there and continue tomorrow.

If you are wondering who am I sending the messages to? This is all people that commented on FB advertisements of similar services and related, that showed in my feed and I am taking the time to contact manually.

I am using a quick casual message, with the most important points, not very long or full of things. Also this accounts look like real person, not Page.

Youtube:
10 comentarios 3:31 am
10 comentarios 3.58 am
10 comentarios 4:51 am but i think they are not holding

Here I did some YouTube comments in related videos, but I realized they got deleted almost instantly so I abandoned this.


- So this was almost all my work for the day. I sent 130 messages I think.

I already got some responses, actually. Like 4 o 5. This is great and shocking, taking into consideration that the day is only starting and most people probably have yet to see the message.

This also means tomorrow there will be more spamming. Because if it works even a little bit, I will exploit it, since in this Phase 1 my focus is to reach $130 profits to break even, hopefully before next month comes and I have to pay again.

From this 4 or 5 responses, 2 of them asked me for Netflix accounts. Losing those sells would be stupid because I know this market and it will happen a lot. So I will just resell when they ask me for other services.

Another 2 asked me for video of the app working and seemed interested, but couldn't try it until later. Let's see.

The most complicated part of this business (which I have no experience with) is the installation of the app to watch the live TV. The easiest situation, is that client's TV has access to Playstore, then is just download an app. But if it doesn't it gets more complicated. Sometimes you have to change settings to allow external apps etc, this can be difficult for clients.

As the problems presents, I am going to be building PDFs with image-guides on how to install.



- Another thing I did today was posting in an online group I have in common with the IPTV owner. Here I'm trying to get resellers to sell my service.
Of course I will give them a better price, but they create passive growth.


For direct customers I will be charging $7 a month. For resellers around $3 and 2$ depending amount.

Right now I'm only targeting local buyers as direct customers, to simplify the payment method part. Resellers can pay online.

Sadly, I have to sleep.


This is all for today, a lot more things occurred to me while I was doing this things but I forgot, so you better ask some good questions.
I will update again at the end of the day tomorrow.


End of the day

Profit today: 0$

Total: - 130$

that's inspiring, thanks for sharing.
