Join Date: Jan 2008 Posts: 18 | My forum is hosting a camping rally in March. I have been calling, visiting every camping RV supplier, dealer in the area. Every one I have talked to agreed to either advertise on the site for a fee or gave a donation for a raffle that we are planning during the rally. I say it never hurts to ask so call them or talk to them in person if you can. | ||||

| I've contacted some big companies in the past, but most of them do not even bother to reply. | ||||

| We contacted a few of the bigger companies for my claims site. We got 3 of the 4 major software companies to advertise for our field. One of them offered free software for learning purposes to all members of our site (software is typically around $100/mo if you purchase yearly license and we have quite a bit of members) | ||||
