While you are busy asking yourself &#8220;How do I make money&#8221;, there are new, non-broadcast players that are increasingly producing content (Netflix, Amazon, Apple&#8230;) and are playing the long game. They are not trying to make money in the short but are trying to disrupt the marketplace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And it&#8217;s working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"4032\" height=\"3024\" src=\"http:\/\/savardfaire.tv\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_5864.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-593\"\/><figcaption>Nice day today!
