Corporate rates for press campaigns

I was apporached by a large corporate recently to write a short press feature, as their usual consultant was not available. It was a lucky break for me, as they've apporached me again for more work. The company wants to re-use the original press feature in various publications, and as we did not have a contract drawn up, I am unsure of the procedure around payment for the re-use of work. They have asked me what it will cost them to re-use the piece, tailored of course to the different publications. Any advice would be appreciated. 21 Nov 2007

Greater censure for ambush marketers

MTN was recently hauled over the coals for placing an ad in The Sunday Times that implied a connection with Bafana Bafana. As the national football team is very visibly sponsored by Vodacom it's obvious that MTN knew very well what they were doing. 10 Sep 2007
