We Want our Users to Contribute Videos

MetroBox TV also welcomes users and knowledge leaders to submit their own videos of a how-to nature targeted at the young professional crowd.

Your knowledge is worth money. Advertisers today are seeking a change from old broadcast media models, both online and off.  Moreover, they seek popular niche orientated media channels in the search for a more targeted approach to marketing.  

At MetroBoxTV we want you to be our partners in that change by sharing your knowledge with our audience and by doing so earn extra income through our 50/50 revenue split for any ads run with your videos.
