I have been asking $5,000 for 1% of any distribution or acquisition deal I receive for the film, after agent fees and commissions. For you two, it's $4,000 for the same 1%. That fifth thousand is on me.

My ultimate goal is to sell the film to a Subscription Video on Demand service such as Netflix or Amazon.

If the film generated $400,000 after fees and commissions, your 1% would return your full $4,000 investment. Anything above that would be profit.

For context, Knock Down the House was reportedly acquired by Netflix for $10 million and Time by Amazon for $5 million, with other documentary acquisitions landing in the high six and low seven figures.

I'm not suggesting this film will achieve those numbers. There is real risk and no guarantee of a sale.

But look back at the track record above. I've succeeded far beyond what anyone could reasonably have expected from a small, independently produced series out of Rockford.

I believe I can do it again, this time with a feature film.

And if you want to take a larger stake, I'll offer you 2% for $8,000, where anyone else would pay $10,000.
