Place to post client possibilities??

On another list I inhabit a post just came across that could be a good opportunity for one or more of the event managers on the list. But I could not figure out where something like that should be posted. Am I missing something? It does not seem to fit in any of the sections. Do we have some kind of exchange section on the forum where members could pass on leads? Or do we need to add one?

This is not the first time this has happened for me. This time the post was about a contract position for an event manager but other times it has been for videographers, bookkeepers, virtual assistants, etc.

These are not full time job offers. They are 1099 contract positions which many of us indies are looking for. I guess they would be considered luke-warm leads since in my case, I am usually just the pass-through messenger and have no first hand knowledge about the position or the company.

Ideas?

Here is the post so you can see what I am talking about (and if you are an event manager, you can see if you want to respond).
