Some LUGS might even pay you

to do a peresentation of your products at their meeting
think partial compensation for your travel expense, lodging
one nite, meal at their monthly meeting etc.

Have you checked out placing ads with the various LUG's

around the country?

I know that OMNI's rates are very reasonable.

Matt Gross is in charge of advertising.

What also stinks that because the prices for software is so

high, so are

other things, like advertising FOR your software.

As a vendor/service provider myself, there's little way I

can afford to

advertise in print. A couple e-zines are "almost"

affordable, but not the

larger spotlight ads. So I rely mainly on word of mouth to

stay afloat.

I'll get a call now and then from a magazine to advertise,

ask the price and

my jaw drops to the floor (not to mention they like to "lock

you in" for

more than one ad). I ask them if they "tier" prices

depending on the cost

of the software/services we're selling. :) Usually silence

for a few

seconds.
