How it works

Got an idea? John de Mol wants to hear it!

Users must send in at least two non-scripted ideas per month to retain membership.

Join our creative team

and you will have access to daily trends, which may inspire your next big idea for a non-scripted television show. You will be provided with useful resources and have the opportunity to participate in ongoing projects with substantial rewards.

If we option your show idea, you will receive an initial fee and a percentage ownership of the format. The exact amounts will be determined on a case-by-case basis, depending on several variables, which may include:

  • How well the format is developed (a one-liner, one-pager, or more?),
  • The amount of investment that is required to sell the format,
  • The format’s potential for international distribution, and
  • Format specifics, such as the number of episodes.

Our goal is to help our members be as creative and successful as possible and partner with them throughout the development process.
