What businesses have the most painful need for blog/ online press to get more leads and sales?

I have been constantly reading books and blogs with case studies of how to get press mentions, growth hacking, blogging, virality, etc. I graduated in Marketing and have some agency experience in big client PR. But now I want to test myself and really put the theory into practice on my own with a client, offering "I will get you XYZ users through online buzz, or you don't pay me." Everybody says broadly that a common painful problem for businesses is "getting customers." But what businesses? I am looking for already profitable businesses with cash to invest, but who are maybe too hands-deep in running the business or unfamiliar with blogs to hustle for press to get more leads. Restaurants? Personal trainers? Grocery stores? What industries or specific businesses do you think fit the bill? Thanks.
Answer:

Any business that provides (professional) services. There are a gazillion out there and they only way you get more sales is if you get in more qualified leads. In a way, I am now seeing that myself after being at it for 800 plus answers on Quora, essentially 800 blog posts. Spontaneous follower-ship on Quora and Twitter is now picking up significantly. So if you can help people develop their own authentic voice through a social media strategy that brings leads, that's your sweet spot.
