Looking forward to following your progress (because I can see I need to do similar for some of my sites :)) Ah, I was a downer - sorry, i feared as much :(

I'll be giving numbers and examples of the emails I send out but the problem at the moment is a lack of time to get it done so I'm hoping it'll be worth the wait. I'm as interested as you are to see how it all works out! Yep Neale, that’s the idea.

Something along the lines of find 100 potential advertisers send 100 eMails make 25 phone calls = 5 sales. This is what I would deem as old school buisness on the web "safe & sure not hyper tech" just straight forward standard Buisness princaples applied to a web site. I truly believe she will suceed in geting a small number of advertisers that will make her website a very profitable proposition. And continue to highlight the residual factor that is obtained after spending many hrs devolping a site.

Something that would catch the attention... This is if you find out the address of the advertisers but if you find it may be good to try... Hi Kirsty,

This is if you find out the address of the advertisers but if you find it may be good to try…
