First let me say I market for a living currently, so I am not exactly inexperienced. However lately I have taken a fancy the Unity3D engine. I am working on smaller games and won't have time to do the marketing myself as I spend most of the day on the production side of things. Secondly the pay is going to be based on performance. If you do 2 days worth of work then disappear, I am going to find someone who is dedicated, and they are going to get your share. The pay is going to be approx 20-30% of revenue, and I can pay partial before earnings if you keep records of what you've actually done so that I can see the effort. The games seem to earn about an average of $5 cpm, but once you get past the breaking point they snowball on their own. Because game portals advertise games that do well early, they gather a ton of momentum. Getting a couple thousand people in the first week will often lead to hundreds of thousands the next week. I'll also be contributing to marketing myself, but I want someone "full time" on it. So what am I looking for? I want someone experienced enough to know what they are doing. As I said I am looking to spend the majority of my time on actually developing, so I don't want to have to hold any ones hand. I don't mind discussing what I think is best and such, but when it comes to doing it, please know what to do. And what does it involve? Just simple stuff really. You'll be doing daily Forum posts across various forums, talking in portal chat rooms and linking games, using a twitter, etc... Just your typical viral-like marketing, no SEO or hard sales. I think that's everything, if I remember something else or you have questions I'll reply with whatever. The current game I am working on is http://www.kongregate.com/games/jojoblomo/hipster-rampage if you want to check it out. If you have an account give me a 5 star rating and I'll be your friend forever, it's super helpful to me and gives you a free point. All that being said, thanks for reading all of it and I hope to hear some promising replies.
Also to any of you League of Legends players out there, I am giving away $10 RP to both the highest wave and a random person on the leader board by this Friday. Just thought I should throw that out there =P
