- VIVA Entertainment Group Discusses Marketing and Distribution Plans and Entry Into MultiBillion Dollar Hospitality Infotainment Market

NEW YORK, January 31, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
Viva Entertainment Group, Inc. (OTC MARKETS: OTTV), a global entertainment and technology company connecting content owners and video distributors to deliver premium content on any smart device, is pleased to announce it is expanding its platform reach to include the very large multibillion dollar hospitality infotainment market and is currently in negotiations, with multiple hotel groups that represent thousands of hotel rooms, to rollout the Viva OTTV service.

Johnny Falcones, Viva Founder and CEO stated "the opportunity for Viva to rollout our OTTV service to the hotel-hospitality market represents a very large and untapped market. Currently, the hotel industry provides guests with hundreds of in-room video-on-demand movie choices but generally the hotels don't share in the revenues generated when customers spend money on this form of entertainment. Viva's value proposition is that it has built its own proprietary OTTV platform, where it can customize a much more unique and compelling in-room infotainment system for the hotel industry and offer hotel chains and/or hotel groups a revenue sharing, which provides the hotelier new revenue opportunities to increase the average revenue per room or per customer. The revenue model looks like this: Advertising is a 50/50 split with Viva on Local, Regional, National or Global Ads, Video On Demand $8.99 per movie is a 50/50 split, with a demographic package the hotel guest may pick. As an example, a Miami hotel chain that has 80% of guests coming from south American and latin American regions will be able to offer their foreign travelers the Viva OTTV service in-room where guests will be able to pick a package on their native language either from Live Streaming or On Demand."

Mr. Falcones added, "The main focus of the Company's distribution efforts is in licensing, where the Licensor will Pay a fee upfront based on how many subscribers they have or a subscriber projection. It also includes a monthly royalty per subscriber anywhere from $3-4 dollars recurring. In the case of a larger cable company that has 20 million subscribers paying Viva $3 dollars a month in royalties could add up to $60 million dollars a month in revenue from a single customer. Viva is in discussions with multiple organizations including cable companies that have expressed interest in white label licensing agreements for the rollout of the Company's OTTV service. As previously announced, the Company has partnered with Oi2 Media. Oi2, the country's largest provider of Latino focused content and services to major broadcast and digital media companies such as iHeart Media and Univision Radio is jointly working with Viva to roll out a brand new OTTV service to their subscriber base. Users will have access to over 1000 live streaming premium and independent TV Networks, 2000 radio stations and over 7,500 videos on demand. Joint marketing efforts will come from commercials advertising the availability of the product on 2000 radio stations at the joint venture's disposal. The joint venture is targeting to generate a minimum of 2 subscribers a day paying anywhere from $9.99-39.99 times 2000 radio stations which equals 120,000 subscribers a month. VIVA and Oi2 Media's combination exceeds a monthly reach of 2.5 billion people, 121.7M monthly socially media engaged users, 100 million social media followers, 33.5 million social media referrals and over 300 thousand e-mail subscribers to begin with."
