I Want to Advertise My Home Business for Free: A Cheap and Easy Guide for How and Why to Spread the Word of You, Inc.
| |
| Before we get started, why are we talking about spreading the word of YOU when you say "Roy, I told you I want to advertise my home business for free, what does spreading the word of me have to do with my business?"
The short and simple answer: Everything.
There are three main understandings that are necessary to bring together to begin a successful online business marketing campaign.
1. The understanding that people connect with and join not a business or company, but you.
2. You need to leverage as many free methods of marketing available to you online to be effective. The more the merrier.
3. The understanding that your advertising needs to give universal value to your target market before directing them to your product, regardless of what method of marketing you use. People join people of value, not a sales pitch. |

MYTH: Cold calling is a good idea
| |
| In the "olden days" when I first started my business, over 95% of my sales came about through cold calling, which I had learnt to do really well when I worked as a sales recruitment specialist with Morgan & Banks.
At M&B - and in my business - it was very clear that if I didn't bill anything I didn't earn anything. So I got on the phones and I prospected to people I didn't know - that is, cold calling.
This was well and truly before the internet was in mainstream use and I had the privilege of learning how to cold call really well. But it is a FACT that in an essentially crowded market place of the 21st century, businesses require a series of "push" and "pull" prospecting strategies rather than one simplistic "push" approach to selling such as cold calling. |

When the Conventional Route Won’t Work

PR for Small Businesses
