Re: [WISPA] Adzilla Revenue Streams
For the life of me, it amazes me how companies come up with requirements like 10,000. Any one with half a sense, would realise that WISPs dont have 10,000 subs yet, but all combined represent a unique segment of the market, The Under Served, that no other ISP can touch. Its not like you can turn the station like TV or Radio. 7000 wireless providers times 500 users each = 3,500,000 unique eye balls to market to with Broadband. Adzilla is insane not having a 500 sub startout package. Where you miss in vlume of users you substitute with frequency of adds.

Re: [WISPA] Water Tower Colocation
We have 2 water tower locations. At one, we provide free service and hosting for the city. At the other, we provide free service to the city and 4% of our net profit generated by users connected directly to their water tower. At a similar location, (an old city owned NORAD radar dome), we provide internet service for the city and hosting. In all cases, the city's involved consider us to be an asset and a source of indirect revenue. Houses here are much harder to sell if broadband is not available.

RE: [WISPA] Water Tower Colocation
Jason, I also ran into that, when I started building out my network. The local water company involved an outside company to find out a fair value for the tanks might be. They came back with a high number (in my opinion), but stated that cell phone companies get charged more... I waited about a year, and he randomly called me the other day. I mentioned that if he would have lowered his prices or been a bit flexible, I would have signed earlier and he would have had 12 months of service and me on his tanks. When he called, I suggested coming over and hooking him up. He agreed and was MUCH more agreeable and I set the price 1/2 of what he had originally heard from this outside company.

Re: [WISPA] Water Tower Colocation
We live in a town of 6,000 people and there are only 20,000 in the county. The city water company makes $3000+ per month from one of their water tanks. They charge $1000 - $1500 per month per tenant. The tank is only 100' tall so I don't know why the cell companies just don't erect their own tower in the area, there is a lot of land here for sale at prices in the $3k - $10k per acre range. Most water companies however will swap out free broadband and free installation for free use of their water tanks. Others are happy to receive $50 - $100 per month per water tank. I think what it really comes down to is who you are and who you know when dealing with water companies. Sincerely, Shannon D. Denniston, Co-Founder KyWiFi, LLC - Mt.

So, I'm working trying to find comparable figures for what others are paying and have worked out, etc, just to show that most are not paying anywhere near the $1000 per month for a water tower. Other towers, yes, maybe, but not water towers - at least not that I have found. - Original Message - From: Cliff Leboeuf [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: WISPA General List wireless@wispa.org Sent: Monday, March 13, 2006 3:25 PM Subject: RE: [WISPA] Water Tower Colocation Jason, Each deal is different. I had tried unsuccessfully to get access to the water towers in my area for years. Than, one day, the realized that I could offer them something...two way IP communication to their equipment, and they could eliminate the 1FB's and modem they were currently using. I not charge them $30 per month for their 42 locations, and have rights to all of their towers for AP's...Go figure! - Cliff - Original Message - From: Jason Hensley [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: WISPA General List wireless@wispa.org Sent: Monday, March 13, 2006 12:25 PM Subject: [WISPA] Water Tower Colocation I'm looking for comparisons again on water tower colocation. Have another area I'm trying to go into. Looking for what you're paying, if anything, what you're trading out (speed, number of buildings / connections, etc), etc etc. Specifically looking for folks in towns of under 20,000, but anything will help.

Re: [WISPA] Adzilla Revenue Streams
Easy to say but then you don't have to supply the Sun boxes that the Zillacasters run on. Also, selling local advertising takes time and man-power. How do you get enough click-throughs and other metrix on 500 subs? Even pay the advertising salesperson?

Its not like you can turn the station like TV or Radio. 7000 wireless providers times 500 users each = 3,500,000 unique eye balls to market to with Broadband.

Re: [WISPA] Adzilla Revenue Streams
The requirement is actually pretty simple. All of the traffic has to be aggregated to an appliance, so there has to be an appliance at each network's headend. Well thats the question. Does it have to be that way. I don't see the need to have all the traffic flow through it. I see it sitting in parallel, and just certain type of traffic gets redirected to the cache appliance server that adds the marketing data. Tom DeReggi Therefore, the company is going to want the most band for their buck by putting the appliance at large network headends as opposed to small. One the flip side, businesses shouldn't be counted as single subs. Clearly, a business with 150 employees should be worth more than a single subscriber. -Matt Tom DeReggi wrote: For the life of me, it amazes me how companies come up with requirements like 10,000.
