Give your small or home business a potential boost from self-created online promotions. Many free options are available on the internet that will help you draw attention to your product or services and attract potential customers.
Instructions
1. Create a free promotional blog online. Many sites offer free accounts, templates, and other creative features for setting one up, including Blogspot.com. Use the search links regarding interests and online communities and the keywords or tag option to alert potential customers to your presence.
2. An online newsletter is a good way to keep in touch with your old and new customer base and alert them about special promotions, giveaways, and new product details. Add a button linked to an automatic email to make customer sign-up simple for your blog's visitors. A simple computer graphics program like Paintbrush or Photofiltre will alow you to incorporate text, color, and images in your newsletter -- simply send it as an attachment to the customers in your email list.
3. Find a compatible business or product and ask them to join you for a special promotional offer or giveaway. A double offer may help tempt more customers and allows you both to combine customer base email lists and promotion resources for double the publicity.
4. Online communities like Twitter and Facebook are great places to advertise your product or services. Use the internet to connect with people whose interests match the business you offer, as well as keep followers instantly apprised of exciting developments in your field.
