Hey!
Ok, so, as of Saturday I'm signed on to do business development/sales/marketing for a Z-tier indie fed.

http://doapro.com/

They're a small SMALL company that's been running shows in the Portland area for a little over 7 years now. The current Shows aren't being filmed at all do to the fact that they're last camera guy/editor was doing it pro-bono and just got busy with other work. There's a TON of older shows and they're filming promos for the new show to put up online but I still think you need to be filming SOMETHING just to have a show online right now.

Things I have done for them in 2 days:

-Built the website [this is why it's kind of slapdash] (roster updates coming as soon as I can sit down with the guys/gals)

-Introduced Square readers (no longer a cash only business)

To Do's:

-Getting both Company and wrestler merch online ASAP

-Finalizing the Roster Page


My Short-term Goals
-Get every show we do filmed, and put online, even if it is just 1 hard cam shot
-Promote locally (the current shows are in BFE so far from everyone, but near a bunch of business parks, so maybe give the local business an employee discount for buying tickets online?)
-Online Ticket sales (for christ's sake, it's 2015)

Let me get some Q's out the way really quick:
No, I haven't been asked to, nor have I, Invested any Money in the company
No, I don't plan on quitting my day job do to this right now (I have some free time away from work so, It's mostly a fun hobby right now)

Anyway, feedback, ideas, anythings appreciated!

Aliens invade the fed, but they are actually using Zombies they reanimated to invade. It's also the 9th time they have tried to invade, but no one noticed any of the other attempts.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
I don't know how willing the rest of the Cucumber & Co guys are to do anything wrestling related ever again, but we can do websites and social media for that stuff pretty cheap and we've got a production company if you ever wanna fly me to Oregon for a weekend

Can def help with the logistics though, we've got tons of online stores and sold those silly loving Diablo Jr shirts.

tell derek drexl to start thinkin and even feeling, and come up with new cool ways to sow the seeds of endless anarchy. there should be a conscious effort on his part to open the creative envelope, so to speak, in order to entertain us in a more contemporary manner

I don't know what's more futile, posting this in the wrestling board where people just want you to book ridiculous poo poo or posting it in the business forum where people will make fun of you for losing money and free time on this
