In the muni world you request a rating from the rating agency you wanted to be covered by and you pay a fee for the rating. You can also solicit preliminary ratings from say Moody's and S&P to see if one rates you higher than the other and choose which you like best. The incentive to pick up as many issuers as possible is you get paid by them.

This to all my hatin' folks seeing me getting guac right now..

Makes sense. I'm assuming it's the senior analysts/MD's job to do the brunt of the marketing?
