Depending on your market you can put some very valuable information on the
back such as a sports schedule, emergency numbers, or special dates people
want to remember.
Keep some in your wallet, your automobile, on your desk, and some at home. Be
sure to carry them with you wherever you go and be willing to hand them out as opportunity presents
itself.
Creatively distribute your card. When you eat out you can leave one with the tip.
f you borrow a library book, use one as a book mark.
Hand them to clerks in stores who may know other people who could use your
product or service. START YOUR JOURNEY TO FINANCIAL FREEDOM WITH PASSIVE INCOME

keep your name fresh in their mind.
2. Send a picture
A great way to keep your name fresh in a customer’s mind is to send them a picture
of when they purchased a product or service from you.
Put a picture of a buyer’s auto purchase in a beautiful calendar. Likely, the proud
owner of the vehicle will display the calendar for the next 365 days.
For specialty gift shops, when a customer makes a substantial purchase, have a picture
taken with the shop owner. Frame the picture and send it to the customer.

Associations particular to your market are a great resource for marketing. There are
associations specific to virtually any industry, job type or business.

A major opportunity within many organizations is the chance to network.
Additionally, to make presentations. Along with presentations come publications.
Often, when you do a presentation, you will get a mention in the association
newsletter, their Ezine and/or on their website.
In many cases, when an organization has a newsletter or Ezine, they welcome the
presenter writing a press announcement for them.
It saves them time and often assures you have a better chance of the information

4. Committee Involvement
Committee involvement is a great way to give back to the association or community
while building visibility for you and your business.
In some cases, you may even want to get involved in a committee where you have
little experience or knowledge.
his will give you an opportunity to stretch yourself and meet and network with
individuals you may not have otherwise had the chance to meet.
5. Contests and drawings
Contests are a favorite for many businesses such as restaurants or those that have
high foot traffic. Contests are a great way to build your database quickly.
You are generating very hot leads when you have a contest with people who have
already frequented your place of business.
The key though is to do back -end marketing. Far too many businesses hold contests,
get lots of names and do nothing with them.
In this case, it is a complete waste of time to hold a contest.
You can advertise a contest to gain new foot traffic in your place of business.
Trade show booths are a great place to hold a contest. Pre-show marketing helps
to generate traffic at your booth. Invite people to stop by booth # _____ (whatever
your booth is) to enter to win. Creative contests can also generate free publicity.
STARTING A BUSINESS AND WEALTH BUILDING HAVE NEVER BEEN SO SIMPLE
6. Cross-promoting
Join with other companies who have products or services that compliment yours
and promote each other. Let’s say you have a massage business.
You could partner with a candle company to sell their candles to your massage clients.
They can give out coupons for your massage business.
Or the candle company can partner with a gift basket company. Cross-promoting is
only limited by your imagination.
This can considerably cut down the cost of business promotion and allow each
business to use promotion techniques that might be too expensive to implement alone.
7. Bonuses
special offers from various businesses who want to share a similar market as you.
When a customer buys a minimum amount they receive a bonus packet with the
various offers from the other vendors.
This is a win/win all the way around. The other vendors gain visibility, you have
something extra to offer you customers and the customers get incredible value
for their purchase.
Be aware of who you cross-promote and joint venture with. You want someone
who will be equally committed to a campaign.
