This does put a slightly different slant on it. Although they still need
to advertise, the promotions person should also be getting active in
relevant gaming newsgroups and irc. And spend their days getting some
good PR/reviews in publications both online and off. Why not start with
George's media release service to hit all the relevant journo's? Seems
to me it would be a good way to start spending your budget.
