Deal 1/50: Sponsorship of ExploitBoston Radio!

Update 11/16/2004: Here's the ExploitBoston relaunch announcement.

I mentioned recently that we'd be making 50 deals in 50 weeks. Our first deal came to us at the beginning of last week. And it is done. I've been talking to Susan Kaup for about a year now over email. A few months ago we met up and swapped notes on each other's goals.  Susan is an excellent event planner and people motivator. She is the kind of person that you can't not like.  And she has also been a netizen much longer than me. She launched ExploitBoston as one of a few projects as a weblog, radio station, event listing, culture site long before gawker and weblogsinc were born. However, she has been unable to put a lot of attention to it. She has fallen into a lot more time recently. So, we are helping her cover her costs while she expands her efforts. 

In return she is going to help us grow WhizSpark, by helping us meet venues and event planners that might use our services and then also help us to get the word-out about events we are promoting and to promote WhizSpark in general.

If anyone is in or around Boston or is ever visiting, please contact Susan or myself if you want to know what to do and if you want to do it as a VIP.

If anyone belongs to a band in the area and would like to get some internet radio airtime and some connections with venues, let us know.

We look forward to working with Susan in helping her expand her readership and listenership as well as with paying the bills.

If anyone is interested in a similar relationship, let me know. We are very selective about how we spend our ad dollars, but with the tools that we have and the connections we are making, we are helping a good handful of people make extra cash with their community based websites and weblogs. So, if you are thinking partnership, not ad sales, we are all ears.
