Hello everyone, long time reader of TIGsource, first time forum poster. I've recently started a public relations company dedicated to indie games, and as a grand opening I'm doing a free pr event. Basically I'm offering a few indies some free pr work to get my foot in the door, I've done some pr for a few indies already, but I still need to get my company out there, and this is an opportunity for me to do so. My site is still under construction, but it's open to the public at: www.bigindiepr.com and the page with more details on the free pr event is: www.bigindiepr.com/eventsThanks guys, and I hope to hear from a few of you guys. |

Small update guys, we've had a few indies submit to our free pr event, but we want more. Just to clarify, this is a free event, you won't be charged anything, and we'll be doing the work. Don't miss a great chance to get your game noticed. www.bigindiepr.com/events |

In the month of November BIGindiePR will be holding a pro bono event, in which indie developers can sign up to receive "Free" PR from us.
Um...what do the quotation marks mean? |

No, it's truly 100% free, I'm not a lawyer, and I wouldn't trick people like that. My use of the quotes was incorrect, I was trying to draw attention to the event being free. My apologies if anyone thought different. |

So, what kinds of things does this "free pr" entail?

Press release, video submission, and other consulting. If you're interested go to the link and sign up. You know how people say any PR is good PR, well free PR is better.

Well, that just sounds peachy. I browsed your site but found very little information. You listed past clients, but not what you did for them nor the results. "Video game journalist" could mean as little as a blogger and as much as writer for PC Magazine. What sort of background, contacts, and experience do you bring that would help my business over the marketing campaigns and press packages that I can put together for myself? |

There are plenty of pixelated programmers pounding out products of peculiar playability at a prolific pace with purported profits.

Specific information about previous contracts, No, that's a breach of contract, but I'll be a general as possible. Results, Search "A Virus Named Tom", Rock Paper Shotgun, Indiegames.com, so one month over 20 articles. I'm the senior lead indie games editor for Goozernation ( www.goozernation.com)You may not have heard of it, but we get, on average well over 10,000 unique views each day, we receive media passes to GDC, PAX, Comiccon, and many others, we receive review games like Deus Ex HR, Rage, Dungeon siege III, and many other AAA title. As you can see, not a blog. If you want free PR sign up, but if this doesn't convince you then there's probably nothing I can say to do that. |

No sir, not interested in confidential information, just interested in results. I have a pretty solid plan as to how I would like to promote our game when it is complete later this year, but the greater audience the better. I am just looking for an idea of what your exact services and abilities are. It's my job to make executive decisions for my team, and that means being informed. PM me if you uncomfortable listing your services publicly, but I think your journalistic credits should be listed on your website. They are something to help bolster your professional image. |

I don't even know what this means. There are 20 articles on the game on RPS and indiegames.com? |

Search "A Virus Named Tom"(via a search engine like Google)during that contract we got around 20, more than that I believe, on all kinds of different websites. Most notably sites like Rock-Paper Shotgun and IndieGames.com. |
