GET ME STARTED - No Experience With Streaming

I am a freelance event videographer in Las Vegas looking to add live streaming and VOD to my services. I cover sporting events like amateur bodybuilding contests, boxing matches, live entertainment and theater events. I believe I can make streaming work in my business, but because I work primarily alone, I need an affordable platform that offers or supports pay-per-view, embedding, privacy protections, and so forth.

I have no experience with streaming and am suffering a steep learning curve. I have the Livestream Basic Platform and their Studio software to get started learning. Product works great, but their Enterprise platform at $10,000 a year is inaccessible to me.

I have all the equipment I need to shoot events, and live perform switches, but no knowledge of how to connect my equipment to the necessary services for delivering pay-per-view and VOD in a controlled, private and secure environment. Please point me in the right direction to some specific services that I may already be privy to as I have a Creative Suites CS 2014 subscription

I'd like to know about what you offer. I will attend the Streaming Media West event in Huntington Beach next month.
