COGS (SERVICE COST STRUCTURE)

At Spinex Music, we maintain a clear and structured cost model across all publishing services. This ensures transparency in our operations, consistency in pricing, and strong unit economics as we scale.

1. Direct Cost Per Service

We define our core production costs per publication as follows:

Service Type	Direct Cost (COGS)
Interview	$40
Review	$40
Feature	$35

2. Simplified Cost Structure (Internal View)

For internal accounting and operational clarity, our cost structure remains fixed per output:

• Interview = $40 per publication
• Review = $40 per publication
• Feature = $35 per publication

This allows us to maintain predictable margins across all content output.

3. Monthly COGS Model (Operational Example)

A standard monthly production scenario is outlined below:

Interviews	10	$40	$400
Reviews	15	$40	$600
Features	20	$35	$700
TOTAL	45	—	$1,700

4. COGS Formula (Spinex Model)

{COGS} = (I \times 40) + (R \times 40) + (F \times 35)

Where:

• I = Interviews
• R = Reviews
• F = Features

5. Profit Logic (Operational Insight)

Our pricing model is intentionally structured to ensure profitability at scale:

• Interviews maintain strong margin potential
• Reviews provide stable recurring revenue
• Features deliver the highest margin due to lower production cost

This structure is effective for a digital media business because:

• Costs remain fixed per output
• Margins scale with volume
• No significant physical or inventory overhead exists
