What's your thought on SN and territories cooperative marketing.

For example. If I wanted the sports territory to advertise on a football podcast. I could have the copy read in such a way that promotes both SN and the sports territory.

Obviously any sort of marketing/ads promoting SN would need your approval first but maybe there is a way for territories to get out to their niche corners of the world and promote the site and the territory. SN could share in the cost by crediting back x amount of the territory fee per year to each territory for advertising and base the amount allocated on the territory rankings. So maybe the top 5 non SN territories get up to 20% of fee back for advertising/promotion.

I was talking with Undisciplined about how territory growth and SN growth, in my opinion need to be symbiotic, or else we could have one territory dominating most of the main page and the user experience for stackers who aren't interested in that territory would degrade. I think it is important to maintain a nice variety of types of posts on the main pages.

Anyways, this doesn't necessarily need to be a now thing. I think we all have a long way to go to exhaust the free advertising/referral marketing options we have available to us but it is something I would like to do in the future. Maybe it is something other territory owners would be interested in too.
