Good, randomly found, motivated marketing people seem hard to find. (or maybe I just don't know where to look)

i.e. let's say you've developed a little site. it launched with a little buzz but then tapered off. you've added a bunch of features and a lot of the site/code infrastructure is in place to take it to the next level, but you've done very little marketing / etc.

What to do next in this case? I have a site like that which is kind of rotting on the vine... a few k in revenue each month gradually sloping downward without anymore work on it from my part.

Biggest problem: managing people part-time can be a huge pain.

That's just the sort of thing I was thinking about. Would you be interested in selling it, bringing in new partners, or something like that? I'm not saying I'm interested myself (I shouldn't be; plenty of other stuff I am/should be working on) but perhaps someone is. I have been thinking about the value of mildly successful web projects and I have an interest one too.
