1. I send out postcards, letters, flyers, business cards, etc. every month. I'm adding people I meet to my mailing list and contacting as many people as I can. I try to leave my business cards with everyone I know and meet. My business cards and postcards are purchased from Vistaprint.com. I have created my own flyers, letters and mailing lists.
2. I signed up at Ryze.com, Meetup.com, WomanOwned.com, iVillage, Networking for Her.com, Soflow.com, AtHomeResources.com, WAHM Announce It.com as well as Women Business Owners.com. I visit almost daily to network and answer posts.
3. I advertise with WBO, Kudzu.com, Smallbizpreneurs.com and Smallbizcommunity.com. I also purchase an ID Plate from Kathy Brown on Ryze, that posts my information on my car.
4. I joined several networks at Ryze and do my best to get in at least once a day to network. I also attend local networking meetings through Meetup.com and ABWA.com.
6. I just purchased a new domain name from GoDaddy.com. That makes my fourth site so I can keep getting my name out on each of them. One site is based on Bellsouth Personal Pages, one site is based here at Ryze, one site is on Google and my latest will be with GoDaddy. All have links to the other sites so I'm doing my best to keep them all referring people to me and others.
7. I've told all of my friends, family and even my kids know all about what I do. I encourage them to send people my way. Word of mouth from people who love and care about you can be so good.
I've had responses from my local mailings, Internet advertising and from word of mouth. I recommend following up with everyone who contacts me as well as sending information out to people everywhere. You never know who knows your next customer. Good luck, take care and God bless.
