If you're involved in an EV-related business, please read the EVDL guidelines for commercial folks. They're part of the list conventions, and have been in place for several years now.
http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#conv ===== begin quotation ===== No advertising. The EVDL is a noncommercial, informational resource. We don't allow it to be used for selling stuff. This includes posts that mainly promote a product or its website. That said, where would we be without parts to build our EVs? We need reputable vendors and manufacturers of EV parts and products for hobbyists. If you're one, you're welcome on the EVDL, but we ask that you follow these guidelines: No unprompted mentions. Don't post just to mention your products and/or services. Bring them up only when an existing conversation (thread) makes the discussion appropriate and natural. We're a bit flexible on this for long-time members, as long as it's done judiciously and tastefully. However, spamming is absolutely verboten. If you subscribe just to advertise, I guarantee that you'll be shown the door. No promotional language. Announce and discuss your products and services only in factual, value-neutral terms (like NPR and PBS sponsorship announcements). Save the glowing descriptions for your own website. Support users of your products and services on the EVDL. This is not optional. As best you can, also take part in general EV help and support, even when it's unrelated to your products and services. Often people building EV components have a long history in EVs and a huge storehouse of knowledge to share with our members. It's in your own best interests anyway, because users you help are that much more apt to become your customers, no? ===== end quotation ===== To that I will add: 1. Don't write about your enterprise too often.. "Too often" is kind of a subjective thing. Use good judgment. Once a week would probably be too often. 2. Include in your post a disclaimer stating that you are an employee of the firm involved.
