ForrestKnight works with brands at the macro tier in the entrepreneurship space. We manage the brief, the window, the rights, and the integration.

If ForrestKnight is the channel you want for your brand, let me show you what a sponsorship with them looks like, start to finish.

Sponsoring ForrestKnight through us runs $26,000 all-in for 60-90 second integration. That one number covers ForrestKnight's fee, the usage rights, and us managing the whole thing for a macro-tier entrepreneurship creator. Sponsor history on file: 81 sponsored videos from brands including Hostinger.

We went straight to the team that books ForrestKnight and pulled the rate they charge, then we added the pieces that make a sponsorship work, the usage rights, the management, the reporting. That managed price is our starting point, and there is room to shape it around your goals. If you already know you want in, you can skip the rest and just get in touch below.

What does the $26,000 managed rate include?

That $26,000 is a managed price, so it covers more than the slot. You get ForrestKnight's fee, the rights to reuse the footage, the whitelisting setup to run ads from the handle, and our team carrying the whole thing through to the numbers at the end. To set the scale, across the 467 creators where we hold a confirmed media rate, the middle of the market sits near $34 per thousand views. The managed price bundles the media with everything you would otherwise chase yourself.

What changes the price from here

Everything in the $26,000 is one 60-90 second integration, handled end to end, and the number moves with scope from there. Add more videos to the run, a longer exclusivity window so no competitor can touch the channel, more platforms than YouTube, or us managing the paid spend, and we adjust the price to match. We will quote you the exact mix.

Can you turn the ForrestKnight video into ads you keep running?

Once ForrestKnight posts the video, the footage keeps working, and turning it into ads is already covered. The upload is one drop on the channel, but the content has a long life ahead of it. We take it, rights already cleared, and cut it into ads you run yourself, either the original clip or fresh edits from the same shoot. You run those as whitelisted or dark ads, so the face keeps selling for you, and because it is paid media you can watch your ROAS and put more behind the cuts that land.

How do I start a ForrestKnight partnership?

The first step is the brief. We bring it to ForrestKnight, lock a window that fits the calendar, and run it all from script to upload. The managed rate for one 60-90 second integration is $26,000, everything included. Want it monthly? We run it as an ambassador program at that same rate, plus 15 percent commission on tracked sales, and we have done this across 101 creators at this level, so you do not chase the channel, sort the rights, or guess at the number.
