I need a partner company to help me on two projects. One is for a PR job and one is for a Marketing Strategy job. Anyone interested?

PR - Need to be able to make dirt look amazing. I have a client who wants major exposure including talk shows and the whole works.

Marketing - Need to have experience creating marketing plans for bigger corporations targeted towards very large corporations. We need to hit major names in those companies like CFOs/CEOs.
I have a fun small project that I need a good, creative copywriter to help me on. It's ASAP, so if you know anyone, send them my way paul@paulkiesche.com.
