Not only should you be upfront about the purpose of your site so you don't miss opportunities, it adds a level of honesty and trust as well.I hate when I've been sitting on a site for a while reading information, only to later find out that the purpose of the site is completely different than how it was presented in the beginning.
I've seen sites that have done this and could only shake my head at how the site owner could have possibly not missed the fact they forgot to advertise themselves. A bit of Marketing 101, but something worth a reminder to anyone with a business website.

Great to see the submitter disagreeing with me by digging me down. Win!
