About StraightTalkAlert

StraightTalkAlert is the video channel of Straight Talk, a consumer education series produced by the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA) for electric co-op members in the United States. The channel publishes short explainers on electrical safety, energy efficiency, storm preparation and the co-op membership model, typically under 90 seconds each. Based on its titles and descriptions, viewers are most likely older homeowners and co-op members looking for practical utility guidance. These audience figures are estimates, not platform data.

The channel has about 3,100 subscribers, a median of roughly 500 views per video, and no uploads since March 2024. It shows no sponsorships. Its content is institutional, so it does not carry paid brand work. Estimated rate is $150 to $250 per video, which works out to a CPM of about $20 to $35 per 1,000 views, compared with $10 to $30 for paid ads.

This channel fits brands selling home efficiency products or utility-adjacent services that want to reach rural electric co-op members. It is a poor fit for brands seeking growth audiences or recent reach.
