Step 1
Sponsor a local team – Sponsoring a local sports team can give you another opportunity to get your small business’s name out there on uniforms. You can also utilize local advertising at the sports field or arena and gain exposure that way as well.
-
Step 2
Give a seminar or presentation – You can do this in your current office location, or offer to provide a presentation at a local conference or trade show. This can give you free admission to the conference for the day, and you also get your name and business in conference brochures and other promotional materials.
-
Step 3
Trade shows – Attending (and handing out business cards!) or exhibiting at trade shows can be an excellent way of reaching new customers.
-
Step 4
Local Internet advertising - Local search advertising can help you connect your business with consumers in your surrounding area. Consumers these days are highly likely (about 65%) visiting a website and search for golf, sporting goods, restaurants, and retail stores in their surrounding areas as opposed to using a phone book. Local search advertising allows a small business to get your business and products in front of consumers that are presently searching for your service.
