Ah herein lies the conundrum.

I have to represent three factions:

1) An educational based company that teaches people on how money works and methods to increase their wealth by increasing their financial IQ. How to read a financial statement, How incorporating saves money on taxes, etc.

2) An investment banking group (essentially a hedge fund) that I have partnered up with to give my client base access to restricted, but discounted shares via Private Placement Memorandums.

3) A media site where I will be interviewing publicly traded companies to help showcase their companies to the general public to increase public awareness of who they are, and what they do.

-=-

My duty is to perform these three things by increasing distribution. Would any of you have any connections to newsletters - or just know of any publications that would benefit from any of these three topics?

Does this clear up the questions that people have about what I do?
FYI - I am not a licensed financial planner. No slight to them, but I've been making better investment decisions on my own portfolio and not having to pay their management fees to boot. I'm more of a financial researcher. A guinea pig if you will - I test out investments, and if they pass the smell test I pass the information along to my group.

She gets 40 to 100 hits a day and gets media gigs from the book and the blog (both of which are her first, and still fairly new). Plus, traffic tends to pick up when she does these.

There are, of course, a number of other options, but as Martian and The_Jazz say, more information would help. The Internet is a big place.
Baraka_Guru,

Do you think you could send me the link to said blog? I'd love to read it to see what they present to their audiences. PM me if it's a nono to post the link here, but I'm guessing others may want to read it as well.

I've got a website in the works, alongside blogs, and eventually a wiki as I hear WIKI is the new hot thing for Search Engine Optimization. Once the dust settles a bit, I'll post them to anyone that's interested.

Thanks,
Merlocke
