I'm compiling a list to give to our corporate sales team. What they want is to understand what mega-corpo brands are getting down and dirty with skiing.

So like Roz and Visa. Simon and Target. You get it...

If you want to help then throw in anything you can think of. This is how maybe one day we can get the big bucks and give you guys every feature you've ever dreamed of. :)

ShaunNDDuffYWoodsy (and Billy Morgan) are sponsored by Samsung. One of the few allowed to show their sponsorship in Sochi.

zzzskizzzOk with this and the survey you guys are up to something, I'm on to you.


Oh I'll be totally transparent on this one. We have a corporate sales team, and they told me that the best way to land corporate sponsors is to watch who is hooking up athletes and then approach those companies. So this is absolutely an attempt to make sure we're hitting up anyone who has touched skiing.

TRIKDIs this is how you will "Grind" money out of the man? How will this help the small bizs on the site that have a hard time digesting the wonderful new advertising options that they just received?


Well for starters we're pretty good at hooking up the small bizs super good. We give an insane hookup to new businesses trying to get their foothold in the market, and have done so since the beginning. Once you're established and you have a proven customer flow from Newschoolers - then the prices start to work up, which is fair if you ask me.

Also, its important to note on both of these fronts that one of our main goals is to hook up content producers. So the more money we get in the system, the more in the end we're able to pay out to the people making the content on NS.

I'll be totally honest, you guys made a web site that has traffic and now your trying to get some money/corporate sponsors out of it. I have absolutely no problem with that. You made a web site that I want to say 100,000's of people use, could be wrong on that. your should be making that bank, SELL YOUR HORSE AND LET IT RIDE.

Handled properly, corporate sponsors can bring a ton to the table for a site like ours. When they advertise, they spend more than three big ski brands combined. So it can really help us raise funds for cool projects, new features, etc.

Then don't send them the blanket media kit from GRIND ;) (giving you shit) I fully understand the econ of this....the challenge is alienating your base vs. corp. Time will tell and good luck! Get those CHFs ;)
