Media.

CBS News confidently invited viewers to create Katie Couric’s unique signoff.

Monetize UGC
Monetize User Generated Content
Our web-based solution enables you to build online communities focused around audience passions, which add power to your existing media assets with user generated content, on-air or online. So it’s more than just capturing and publishing content…its generating revenue from the activity.
When Scripps Network adopted our solution, they had depleted their inventory of online advertising. Just weeks after launching their social network, page views skyrocketed into the millions, creating prime advertising inventory for advertisers seeking a highly targeted audience.
Neighborhood America is the trusted leader in providing enterprise-class solutions that have been delivering results since 1999. When you partner with us, you gain more than a top-notch solution. You gain the knowledge and expertise of our entire team.
Build Community
Leverage peer-to-peer interaction in a secure, structured and profit-driven media environment. We provide you with five distinct characteristics necessary to build strong, result-producing communities that support your company’s reputation and brand.
Ownership – Require participants to comply with your terms of use, including digital rights management, prior to submitting content.
Quality and Relevance – Control the environment where advertisers build interest for viewers and ensure that content is relevant where it is found.
Indexing – Categorize content that is unique to every campaign and easy to review. Manage high volumes of content and tighter controls over indexing and classifications.
Creditability – In social networks, all users are potential content providers. You have the ability to require user identification to enhance the credibility of the content.
Oversight – Moderation of audience submissions is the only way to protect the value of a brand. Regulate the interaction through varying levels of filtering and moderation.
Interactive Advertising
Go beyond the 30-second spots and costly banner ads to engage customers through targeted communities of interest and user generated content.
Monetize audience participation through contests, promotions, and creative pay-per-action models designed to promote interaction and increase customer loyalty.
Present an immediate call-to-action that transcends simple brand exposure and compels customers to take the next step. The higher-level of interaction creates more meaningful experiences for customers than your traditional advertising, resulting in a greater likelihood of repeat and referral business for your advertisers.
Integrate these campaigns into other mediums.
More for government.
Public Sector.
Neighborhood America connects public officials and not-for-profit agencies with the citizens they serve for the purpose of building communities around policy issues, events, projects, legislation or rule making.
How social networks can be applied to public needs:
Constituent communication between elected officials, legislative bodies, government agencies or political candidates.
Public comment in state transportation, land planning or environmental projects.
Citizen education and public feedback for emergency management before, during and after a crisis.
Regional planning that collaborates with multiple jurisdictions and cross governmental cooperation.
With our solution, the federal government quadrupled outreach beyond town hall meetings and reduced the cost of public participation from $250 to $7 per person for the Citizens’ Health Care Working Group.
The value of our solution for government process:
Transparency. Whether you’re expanding a road, identifying needs, or polling for policy, Neighborhood America connects you to your public community in a two-way dialogue.
Decision Making. Engaging constituents in your initiatives enables you to listen and act on public input to make credible decisions and simplify your processes.
Cost Reduction. Identifying issues early in the conceptual stage allows you to address obstacles before they become costly problems.
Speed. Data is gathered and organized instantly. And when widespread community involvement is encouraged from the onset, projects are less likely to be delayed by minority opposition.
Strong Relationships. When community members participate in decisions, they are more likely to be loyal and supportive over the long-term.
Company Profile.
Our Company.
In a corporate environment where pop-up companies run on venture capital and crossed fingers, it’s reassuring to know that Neighborhood America was born and grown on the traditional model of steady, consistent hard work and proven results.
Co-founder and CEO, Kim Patrick Kobza, started the company from the group up in 1999 using the principles of trust, expertise and innovation. As a land use attorney, Kim watched a lack of communication turn into costly, frustrating problems. The goal of opening up lines of communications beyond the traditional town meetings was then applied to business, where it evolved to provide real results for any enterprise.
