Hey guys,
Had a quick question I thought I would bounce off the collective here. ^.^ I'm a computer graphic artist and content creator who works in 2d and 3d. It's been my passion, job and hobby for about 10 years now (yeash, I'm 25 but I feel OLD when I say that!) Anyway I was thinking: I'd love to do what I am good at and earn a few lindens as well, so i was wondering: What's the best way to find somebody who has an established biz in SL that I could partner with to provide them with content to sell? I know there are websites and classifieds to sell products directly, but I am not really gifted at marketing, and I know many people really enjoy identifying needs in the market and products that may sell. If I could find someone like that to partner with and provide content for them, that would really be neat, I'm just not sure exactly how to find someone trustworthy and established. If anyone has any ideas or is interested, let me know.

Id recomend selling your content yourself.

If you want help setting up a store and someone to set up ads for you, Hire a business manager.

Perhaps you can get one who will work on a contingincy that you make sales. Id say chances are good since theres a lot of people looking for oportunities in SL that cant make content.

You can advertize in the classified in Help Wanted.

Also you could do a search on Manager.

If you still would rather just create content and sell your rights over to a reseller - search for "Reseller"

I would suggest hitting the forums on SLExchange. They have Wanted and Services sections. You could offer your services there, and I'm confident you'll get someone interested. A very large amount of merchants frequent those boards, myself included.

Shameless self promotion mode here...

The Metaverse Messenger is an excellent place to advertise as well. A number of our clients have report sales increases of 40% or more after beginning to advertise in the M2.

Information is available at http://advertising.metaversemessenger.com.

Thanks,
