Closed - NTD Television wants my video???

[LilySten]

Hi everyone!

I'm a new YouTuber, I've only posted 3 videos (the first one over 4 years ago!)
Nevertheless, my 2 latest videos have kind of gone viral (+500,000 views), especially the last one that I have only posted a week ago!
Anyway, NTD Television have asked to post my video on all their media, whilst crediting my video, but for free. They said they might edit it too to shorten it.

Do you think I should say yes? Will it steal my views or give me more?
Some of my friends say I shouldn't whilst others say I should.
Do you have any experience with that kind of thing?

Thanks

I've moved this to the strategy discussion forum. =)

Free promotion for your channel. I would take it.

Wait, NTD Television? Is that New Tang Dynasty or am I getting that confused with something else?

Yup, that's them! I mean, I'm French so I didn't know then but they seem quite famous o.o

This is the message I was sent:

"Hi Lily,

Our team enjoyed your video below and thought our fans would love it. We would like to re-post it on all our media pages : (link)

With your permission, our video team may need to retouch the video, such as reducing it to a certain length.

Of course, we would be happy to credit your channel. If you are not the copyright owner of the above video, please let me know. Otherwise, your permission confirms that you hold the right to grant the permission requested here.

If you decide to go for it, let us know of any results in growth and view increase.

If you decide to go for it, tell them that you would need credit from them. At least, they should put your channel link on the things they do with your footage. Just my thoughts : )

Hi Lily. I've received the same letter from Alexei today. Did you grant them permission to post your video and how did it go?
