BUSINESS

TIMe to rethink your business model?

Do you have a unique event that needs to reach people in non-traditional ways? A special guest speaker perhaps? Or, a weekly talk show aimed to attract new customers? Stretch Internet can work with you to easily stream live or on-demand audio or video of your events to an unlimited number of listeners or viewers. In most cases, we can have you up and running in minutes with no set-up costs.

Most importantly, we provide first-class support for EVERY event. Many providers sell bandwidth (or offer it for free in some cases), but let you fend for yourself when you run into problems or have questions. We figure it's more important to provide a high-quality, service-driven product than to save a few bucks. Call it a difference in philosophy. We work with our partners from day one – suggesting equipment and helping busineses acquire it at discounted rates, providing complete and thorough set-up support and testing, and conducting stream checks before EVERY event you broadcast to ensure that things are running smoothly. And, thanks to proprietary monitoring technologies, we get immediate notifications whenever a stream disconnects or is experiencing issues, so you'll hear from us almost immediately if your broadcast goes down.

We run an array of load-balanced servers on world-class networks and can support tens of thousands of simultaneous connections. Just as we don't skimp on support, we also don't looks to shave our costs when it comes to bandwidth. A stream is only as good as the network that supports it, which is why we only stream on networks that peer with PacketExchange or Limelight Networks.

As for the cost? Well, we can help there too. We don't "tier" connections, so you'll never pay by the gigabyte or number of viewers. All of our packages offer streaming to an unlimited number of viewers. We can even offer events on a pay-per-view or pay-per-listen basis and split the revenue with you.
