Post your "privacy policy" on your website

Is your privacy policy posted on your website? It should be.

People are concerned about simple things like their email addresses remaining private. Post this on your website. Tell people that their email addresses and all personal information, for that matter, are safe with you.

Post on your website that all of their personal information is only used by you to contact them while doing business and that it will never be used or sold for any other purposes. It's an important thing to do, it eases peoples' minds and allows them to feel safe while doing business with you.

Want more business? Hand out your business card

Have you given your business card out today? If so, to how many people?

This simple little thing can bring you more business. Be proud, hand your card out every day. Each time you meet someone new, hand them a card. In most cases, people feel proud to accept the card, they feel that you are giving them something special -- all of your personal information -- your name, address, phone number, email address, etc.

In reality you are handing them an advertisement for yourself and your business. Something they will keep.

Try handing out business cards every day. Don't let them sit in the box.

Free advertising on Craigslist

A great place to place free advertising is Craig's list at www.craigslist.org .

Try new products there, see if they draw any interest. It won't cost you anything.

Keep in mind that placing one ad per day in any category is the way to go. Doing more than that will be considered spamming and is not a good thing.

Choose your product or service (I have a friend who does pet sitting and does incredibly well on Craigs's list), choose your city and place your ad. The results should come pouring in.

Calendars are the most economical form of advertising


One of the best ways to have your advertising seen 365 days a year is by using calendar advertising.

Calendar advertising has been common for over 100 years. It works and that's why it's still around.Look around your office or home, you probably have at least one calendar from your church, pharmacy, accountant, etc. This low cost yearly gift is appreciated by everyone, it is used by everyone and your own advertising message and name are prominent to anyone who sees the calendar.

Calendars come in many styles -- wall, desk, magnetic, even daily planners and journal-styles. They are very economical, basically costing you pennies a day to have your message blasted to anyone who looks at the calendar, plus the good will for giving out this wonderful gift will come back to you in business.

Check out the whole 2008 calendar line. Add your logo, name, address, slogan, whatever you want at no additional cost. Shipping is free, too. You can't beat this! Check 'em out here.
