Hi Paul,
I had an hour-long conversation yesterday with a guy from Tyler named Jorge Uresti. He proposed a very interesting idea, and I'd love to get your feedback on it. Jorge has worked on in media, advertising, etc. for political campaigns since 1994. He has experience doing radio spots, tv, print (signs, billboards) for various levels of campaigns. I think he sees the vast marketing potential and national position that GOPUSA has to offer and he wants to be involved. He threw out the idea of creating a section of GOPUSA called GOPUSA MediaWorks. This division would be under the GOPUSA umbrella and handle all media operations for conservative business, candidates, and elected officials. The scope would be web design, media, advertising, and on and on. I'm very excited about this because it taps into the whole top-level vision I have for the company which is to help get the conservative message out. Whether we are doing it ourselves (through our news, information, and commentary) or providing the tools for others to do it, we can become THE source for conservative activists to get or deliver their message. So, assuming this is a good idea (and if it's totally lame, please tell me), what would be the best way of structuring it? Simple sub-contracting? Creating a separate division? My instincts tell me that subcontracting would be easiest right now. Plus, if the relationship turned out to be unworkable, then we simply stop doing business with them. How would be go about pricing all of this? What type of percentage would be fair? Obviously, we are talking about work that the current GOPUSA is unable to perform because I don't have the time (for web design stuff) or the experience (in the media stuff). On the flip side, there is no doubt that we could deliver clients these guys that they would have never landed on their own. If some folks in their region might not know them, but they might be familiar with GOPUSA. Anyway, I'm just passing along some thoughts. Perhaps Chris might have some comments as well.
