Hi everyone - I am obviously new to these boards but have been involved in game development and marketing for quite some time. I wanted to start a thread here to introduce a new marketing service I am setting up exclusively for Xbox Live Indie Game developers. I am currently the marketing director for game publisher looking to do some fun work on the side and help promote the freshest game ideas coming out today - independent games. So you all don't think I'm a nut - our last work was the 'Supermercial' trailer for Serious Sam HD, an upcoming Xbox Live Arcade title by Croteam and Devolver Digital. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85rjt3lSZRQ This trailer did quite well and was loved by the same gamers you are trying to reach.

The basic idea is that there is a wealth of free marketing and promotional tools that we use in AAA titles that are available to anyone provided they know how to distribute and promote them properly. What we offer is pro bono marketing and PR support for upcoming Xbox Live Indie Games ranging from trailer production and screenshot distribution to news release design and guerilla marketing programs. Long story short, we will put the spotlight on your creation and reach a wider audience than it could on it's own. We don't ask for any financial compensation up front. We only ask that if you do well with your new title that we be compensated what you think is fair down the road.

If you have a title that you are interested in promoting give me a holler at nigellowrie at gmail dot com and we'll figure out how we can make your game the next big sensation. Thanks and hope to hear from all of you soon!
