this is the equivalent of hiring a "PR guy", is it not?

  "Open PR" would definitely be a lot cheaper though.

    Press releases wouldn't do much good I think.

      Clarification - I was suggesting that the OP's idea of offering a commission to anyone who might be able to get him/her exposure would be much cheaper than hiring a "PR guy".

  Thought it would be smarted and cheaper than hiring someone. Pay for performance - right?

    hypothetically speaking, what if i had a startup that you could pay a small fee and then commissions to that helped get the word out about your startup/event/blog/whatever?
    • mstefff 18y ago
      Not sure what you mean. I was just thinking about saying something like "$100 for any coverage on a tech/finance site with an alexa > 100,000, to anyone who can"..something to that effect..
      • noodle 18y ago
        right, but i'm saying, if this were a more automated process or could guarantee better results, would you be willing to pony up more than $100?
        • mstefff 18y ago
          How could you automate getting writers to cover a story?
          • noodle 18y ago
            its simple, but thats the little idea i just had, how to do that :p
          • mstefff 18y ago
            You mean like a web-based service that helps people get coverage for a fee? Automated as in, fill out a form of what you want..etc?
