Engagement Path · Step 1 of 4 · Blueprint · $2,500

Priority placement, not the free version of maybe.

Every production gets a free look against our current client roster if it has distribution. Blueprint is different – it's priority placement against every brand entering our network daily, whether or not you have distribution yet.

Invoiced after request – payable by Stripe or PayPal. Work begins on payment.

What Blueprint Actually Is

Not the cheap version of anything. The layer underneath everything else.

This isn't a smaller version of active representation. If you skip Blueprint and go straight to being pitched to brands, you're paying for a sales effort on a production that isn't correctly positioned yet – that's a worse outcome for you, not a better one. Every production seeking active representation starts with Blueprint. Qualifying distributed productions can still receive the free Radar review without buying Blueprint.

If You Have Secured Distribution

HB reviews every distributed production against the current client roster at no cost – no Blueprint required for that. Blueprint is for priority placement against everything else coming in, and it's required either way if you want to be considered for active representation.

Category Fit

Where You Actually Fit

A full assessment of which brand categories realistically make sense for your genre, format, and audience.

Brandability Score

A Real Read on Readiness

How ready your production is for brand partnership right now, and what would move the needle.

Opportunity Map

Positioned to Be Found

So when a brand client already registered and looking for something like you comes along, you actually show up.

What to Expect

48-hour turnaround from request to full report. Submit your script or production overview once your invoice is paid – category fit, Brandability Score, and opportunity map come back within two business days, not weeks.

Why It's Priced This Way

Because the bigger package is a sales effort.

And a sales effort on an unpositioned production underperforms. Blueprint is what makes the rest of this actually work – infrastructure first, then the decision point, then execution. That's the order, every time.

If HB Moves Forward
Step 4 Monthly Active

From $2,500/mo – this is when HB goes to market: active brand outreach, pitching, conversation management, negotiation, and relationship follow-up on your production's behalf.

Client Access Only
Know Exactly What You Are Buying

Blueprint positions you. It does not start a sales campaign.

This is the cleanest distinction in the entire program. Blueprint makes your production legible to the network and gives it priority in Radar. It is not active outreach, it does not guarantee a brand deal, and it does not lock you into representation.

Included

Positioning

Category fit, Brandability Score, opportunity map and priority Radar placement.

Next, If You Want It

Roadmap

The deeper financial analysis and HB's decision point for active representation.

Active Pitching

Brand outreach and negotiation begin only after representation is approved, the Playbook Package is built, and Monthly Active is activated.

Questions Productions Ask

Straight answers, before you ask.

Why can't I just skip to active representation?

Because active representation is a sales effort, and a sales effort on an unpositioned production underperforms. Blueprint is what makes everything after it work – every production works with us at this level first, no exceptions.

What do I actually get for the $2,500?

A full category fit assessment, your production's Brandability Score, and an opportunity map showing which of our brand relationships realistically fit your genre and format.

Do I have to work exclusively with HB?

HB requires exclusivity in the categories it's actively representing once you move into full representation – this protects the relationships built on your behalf. Blueprint itself carries no exclusivity requirement.

What if I'm cash-constrained?

Up to 30% of your program investment can convert to backend equity instead of cash. HB's activation fee is always earned in cash.

How do I pay?

Once you request Blueprint, Hollywood Branded sends an invoice payable by Stripe or PayPal. Work begins once the invoice is paid.

Ready When You Are

Request Blueprint.

Submit the same intake our team reviews for every production. Once approved, we'll send an invoice for $2,500, payable by Stripe or PayPal. Work starts when it's paid.

Three Things Worth Knowing Now

Selectivity. Blueprint buys priority placement, not a guaranteed listing. HB is selective on cast, storyline, and time period fit against what the current roster actually needs – the fee is for the work of evaluating and programming you in, not a purchased outcome.

Exclusivity. HB requires exclusivity in the categories it's actively representing for your production – this protects the relationships built on your behalf. A system exists for your own team or freelancers to plug into rather than compete with HB.

Cash-constrained? Up to 30% of your program investment can convert to backend equity instead of cash. HB's activation fee – the commission on deals closed – is always earned in cash, so HB stays fully motivated to close deals regardless of that arrangement.
