I beg for a favour-Marketing expert needed

gb155

Ok so Blackpool is around 9 weeks away now, well the start is, maybe it will be 10 weeks by the time I finish lol.

I have put posters up around work and friends have done the same and although its brought traffic to my blog donations have not gone up as a result, now I know a lot of people here have donated and I cant thank you enough but what I want to do now is contact local businesses and ask them to either display a poster or donate, ideally both, What I would like to do is mailshot and email them but my writing skills are at best limited, So is there any kind marketing person on here who would give up a little of thier time to write a begging letter for me ?

Just giving have a template but I just dont seem to be able to sell myself, So any help I can get to build that letter would be appreciated.

Thanks

Gary

Gaz - are you able to personally visit these businesses (e.g. by riding around each of them on a Saturday or during your lunch hour) to see if they'd put up a poster? It's easier to ignore an email.
