I've emailed a few people who know way more about this than I do.  If 
you're still around, or if your email is valid, I should hear from them 
next week and will let you know.

I take it you a) Aren't in the process of being signed and b) Have a demo

would be useful too.  If you don't already have a website, why not?

Absolutely!  No offence, but if you're over 35, you really need to be very 
good.    http://www.studentsunionwebsites.co.uk/ is a union directory.  Get 
emailing.

Do you have a decent local profile?
