I’ve been talking to a bunch of people on the forums at TheSandTrap.com and I’ve been getting some good ideas from them.  Somebody had the idea of getting a sponsor to put a wrap around my car for exposure, another said to use the name of the sponsor in the title of my blog.  Something like “TaylorMade’s Top 100 Tour Across America.”  You know, I was just thinking.  What if I combined the two ideas and put a wrap around my car that read “TaylorMade’s Top 100 Tour Across America?”  You know that everywhere I went, people couldn’t help but ask questions about what this was, and what I was doing.  I think a golf company would go for it, if there was some more exposure in it for them, like a magazine article, or some kind of TV coverage.  I think my best bet would be to contact all of the local news stations as I went from city to city and do brief interviews.  Do you think that would be something worth watching?  Of course I’ll continue to update my blog with print and videos, and maybe the readership could grow exponentially.  But what is the first step?  Do I try to pitch companies first, or do I try to pitch media first?  And when I do the pitch, what kind of presentation would they want to see?  I’m sure I can’t just go in there cold and say “Hey, I’ve got an idea!”  In what way could the golf companies maximize their opportunities with this project?  I wonder….
