Matt, your new series, Laughter is the Best Medicine has amazing comedians including, Ron Insana and other comedy legends such as Tom Bergeron, Bob Saget, Robert Kelin and Russ Meneve. What led you to this project?
Ron Insana is a member at the famed Friars Club in Manhattan and brought the concept to me. When Englewood Health hospital said they’d love to bring a laugh during the pandemic to the community they serve in Bergen County, NJ, we were off to the races. We’ve produced an engagement rate around 20%!
Laughter is the Best Medicine is an interview show with the legends of comedy hosted by Ron Insana (CNBC contributor). Ron has interviews with legends as Robert Klein, Bob Saget and Kevin Pollack.
Matt, What do you enjoy most working on this series?
I most enjoy seeing a satisfied client. In this case, it’s the Engagement Rate but on other shows, we drive Sales, Email Registrations or App downloads. Happy customers is my greatest pleasure.
Matt, the show has already achieved a 21 percent engagement rate, which exceeds the industry standard of .08 percent. What does this say about the Blockboard solution?
Our platform Blockboard is changing the game across digital video. Our platform validates every single impression so our clients are seeing the results that come from good content delivered to real audience. At Blockboard we integrate sponsors in whatever way is best for our sponsors. With Laughter we incorporate branding on the screen and with an open card showing the sponsorship. With other shows, we’ve integrated product into the Show and on all productions we allow the sponsor to host the show on their site or YouTube channels.
Matt, tell us about the American Health Journal.
American Health Journal will be producing doctor’s interviews for a major pharmaceutical company to discuss conditions that soft sell their new FDA approved drug. Blockboard will run this content to the target audience using CTV and Social Media. It’s an exciting execution for an industry that has been relatively slow to adopt to the new digital video trend.
“Both of these two series are a homerun for the viewer and the sponsor.” Explain.
I’m big on baseball analogies so “homerun” aptly describes both of these shows. They are both game-changers for their clients and the results will and have proven it.
How excited are you to work on these projects?
I run to work every day. This is the most excited I’ve been about anything in my 30 year career in TV/Digital Video
What is next for Blockboard?
What is next for Blockboard is GROWTH! We’re building a business and will likely look to do a capital raise in early 2022. Our team is focused on building our platform and getting the word out to the world. Look out!
