Just got an offer to sell a text ad on my website...what do I do now?!
Hello everyone,
I have some affiliate banner ads on my website, http://www.aviewtoathrill.net and I'm using adsense and chitika.
Today, I was contacted by a company wanting to purchase space to place a text link ad on the site. This is the first time that an advertiser has approached me and would assume that I would need a contract, but other than that....I've got nothing!
If anyone of you have sold ad space directly to an advertiser, I would love to get some advice on what I should right now and how I can handle potential advertisers in the future.
Thanks!
Renee

I learned quite a bit from this thread. I have been approached by someone who wanted to buy links on my site, but they didn't respond after I replied with my rates. It took me a long time to reply, because I wasn't sure if I wanted to be involved with text link sales. I have read that selling to individuals can be hard to detect, but I am still not sure if I would be willing to take the chance, especially after reading Renee's experience.

We started our blog in late Dec and we're going to TBEX '12 in June. Networking as much as possible seems to be a key element for successful blogging.
