A little administrative issue. Especially around this time of year there’s a lot of contests and promotional events centered around the NCAA Tournament. As most are internet based, they look to market them beyond simply advertising. A lot are going to “grass roots” campaigns. These consist of sending a flattering e-mail to relevant sports blogs to ask/suggest/recommend/submit for consideration posting on the promotional events.
They never seem to include any financial incentives for the blogger, so I get nothing out of these things.
This also goes on during football season for bowl promotions and other events.
Occasionally I’ll pass some along, but I seem to be getting more so I thought I’d see what the rest of you think. In the form of a simple poll question.
How should I deal with promotional stuff? |
This is where you and the other bloggers (Big East to start) should network/organize and for financial incentives, agree to do it. It is advertising, and like everyone else, they are monetarily compensated for it.
And (from out here in Portland) thank you for the superb blogging…much appreciated!
Hail to PITT!
