So as some of you may know, I spend my days generating media coverage for companies big and small.
On the side I started playing with getting media for SmokeInDaEye BBQ. The result is pretty crazy, from the site traffic topping 10K unique visitors this month to features on CNN to mentions in most local papers across the country (google "competition bbq" to see my latest SEO quest as I just surpassed the Smoke Ring!).
Anyway, me and my wife are thinking about starting a side business just devoted to promoting bbq equipment, bbq products, etc. But I was also thinking it could be cool to publicize the best of the best teams across the country. A cheap, one price per season type thing.
So here's the question, If I offered you a team of PR pros to put together releases announcing your wins, booking you on TV, getting you mentioned in the local papers, etc., do you think you could convince sponsors to help foot the bill? I'd only work with one team per region so we're not competing against our selves.
