Go-Cast Enterprise
How Nigerian churches can serve members abroad on their own TV channel
The diaspora is often a ministry's most loyal and most generous audience, and the one satellite cannot reach. Here is how to serve them.
In short: a Nigerian satellite or terrestrial channel does not reach a member in London, Houston or Toronto, but an app on their smart television does. Reaching them by satellite would mean leasing a satellite for each region they live in; over the internet, one channel reaches every country with a connection, at no extra cost per country. A ministry with its own TV apps can put every service on the living-room screen of members abroad, live and on demand, under its own name. Go-Cast Enterprise is a dedicated deployment on your own domain: live video (IP television) and a video-on-demand archive, apps for Android TV, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, Roku, Samsung and LG televisions, and listener and studio apps for iOS and Android, all published under your ministry's name. It is priced by quotation.
Why the diaspora matters
- They want to stay connected to their home church and often watch as families.
- They are on fast home broadband, where internet television works best.
- They are often among a ministry's most committed partners.
Time zones change the schedule
A 9 a.m. Lagos service is 8 a.m. in London and the middle of the night in Houston. An on-demand archive matters as much as the live stream, so members can watch at a sensible hour.
Make partnership easy from abroad
Go-Cast Enterprise's optional partner platform lets financial partners choose a monthly tier and pay by card, transfer or USSD, and offers partner-only live streams.
For a member abroad, your app on their television is the nearest thing to being in the room.
