What This Is

“Building the Coconuts” is a 29-episode weekly YouTube reality docuseries premiering June 23, 2026, produced by the Bohol Coconuts Baseball and Softball Club on Bohol Island, Philippines. The series follows Coach Merv Moore and his wife Lerma in real time as they carve an elite baseball and softball performance center out of the jungle mountains of Bohol — searching for the next generation of Filipino baseball talent while building an organization from nothing.

This is not a polished production. It is raw, unscripted, and relentlessly honest about what it costs — financially, physically, and emotionally — to build something real in a remote corner of the world. That authenticity is the asset.

We are seeking five Founding Production Partners to contribute $5,000 each in production capital. Each partner receives a 12% share of net profits from the complete 29-episode Season 1 run. The five positions represent 60% of net profits distributed; the club retains the remaining 40%.

Production capital is used to fund early episodes, equipment, crew, and island travel logistics before sponsorship revenue begins flowing. Net profit is calculated after deducting estimated production costs of approximately $1,430 per episode ($41,470 for the full season). Principal is repaid from gross revenue before the profit-share split is applied.

Founding Production Partner Benefits

🍀
12% Net Profit Share from the 2026 SeasonYour 12% is calculated on true net profit after production costs across all 29 episodes. At Tier 2 audience performance (5,000–14,999 views per episode), each partner’s share represents a meaningful return on a $5,000 commitment. At Tier 3 and above, the upside is extraordinary.
🎥

“You cannot hit a curveball on an empty stomach. You cannot build something great without people who believe in it before it exists.”

Why This Is a Real Media Property

“Building the Coconuts” is not a speculative concept. It is a fully structured production with a defined episode count, a weekly release schedule, a cast of real people in a genuinely compelling situation, and 15 category-exclusive sponsor segments already built into the show’s natural narrative architecture.

Each of the 15 sponsorship segments carries its own defined length, on-screen presence, and sponsor deliverables. Rates are locked at 30 days post-publish based on verified YouTube view counts — meaning sponsors pay performance-based prices with no renegotiation risk after signing. This structure creates predictable, defensible revenue tied directly to audience growth.

This is not a charity project. It is a small, independently produced media business built around one of the most universal stories in sports — raw talent, impossible odds, and the people who refuse to quit.

Who This Is For

This offering is designed for a specific kind of participant: someone who understands early-stage media, appreciates the difference between production capital and conventional investment, and sees the value in being a named Founding Partner in a real story before the audience finds it.

It is not for everyone. There is real risk in any early-stage production. Sponsorship revenue depends on audience growth. View counts are never guaranteed. But the structure is honest, the story is genuine, and the upside on a $5,000 commitment — at even a modest audience tier — is the kind of asymmetric outcome that almost never shows up in conventional deals.

Five seats. No more. Once the fifth partner is confirmed, this offering closes.
