I organized a first run on our server (Stormreaver-EU) over the past week, and yesterday we cleared it in an hour and left with 1381g each. Here are the logs if you are interested in comparing to your own runs, or planning a new one and want an idea for pricing.

I first spoke with my guild to see how many were interested in going with alts. Also, we are a guild of about 32 active raiders, so often have 5-7 people who can't fit into our main guild runs. This week, I encouraged guildies who needed nothing from ToC25 to go on the gold run so we can gear up the people who need it ourselves.
Next, I just made a post on the realm forum:
World of Warcraft (en) Forums -> TM's ToC25+Ony Gold Run - Every Monday 21:00 . Finally, I spammed trade chat a few times just to get the word out.
I set up this first raid with having a strong raid as the priority, instead of having a lot of wealthy buyers. We also were very unlucky with drops, as we had the most competition among our plate dpsers and not a single item dropped for them. We had no trinkets, and no highly contested weapons. Overall, the run was a big success despite the small pot, and I'm planning to continue running them until ICC.
