Clinton,

From what I hear games is a tough, competitive invention area. You might want to
consider a games-specific marketing firm. I found this site: http://discovergames.com helpful.
Another option is EN. These contests kick as a way to be “discovered”. Just wait for the right
one, it won’t be long.

As Mark stated getting in the toy industry is tough and the board game arena even tougher. I have two toys on the market and have been pitching a couple of board games, card games and still knocking on doors. At Toy Fair the majority of board games I saw there were people that started their own company around the one game. There are toy brokers out there but be very careful and do your research on them before signing anything. I would still suggest trying to contact companies, just make sure they produce products along the same line as your product. It may help you get in front of the right person. Check out the game companies at your local stores.
