3 Low-cost Marketing Ideas!
Marketing Yeah!!! For many of us this word can evoke feelings of excitement, or general concern about what it will cost. I understand both sides, as I am constantly looking for ideas, preferably new ideas. Today I’d like to talk about a few ideas that came from our readers, and from me to help open up your mind to what’s out there to help you grow your business.
Myspace.com: This site has been all over the news because the youth of America have been using this as a way to socialize. It is no surprise that advertisers are all over this idea! A web site focused on the most sought after demographics in the country "kids between 14-24" possibly older or younger (though MySpace rules are for over 14). MySpace can be a great place for you to reach the youth market, if that is your target audience! We have recommended it to many of clients who have products geared toward a younger market, and to our independent music artists as a way to create an online community and get a viral buzz about there unsigned music. Did I mention it was free to create a myspace page!
Social networking is not just for kids it can be for small businesses or marketers to gain knowledge and contacts. Some of the most popular sites are Ryze.com, Linkedin.com and FastCompany.com company of friends. These groups have made an impact on many businesses I have known through the years. Adrian Miller, a great sales trainer is involved with the New York chapter.
Squidoo is an interesting site that Nancy Shenker a fantastic marketer introduced me to and if you don’t want to blog maybe you’ll want to Squidoo. As defined by their web site Squidoo's goal as a platform is to bring the power of recommendation to search. You can create a page, known as a lens and make recommendations. You earn a return on your recommendations which can be used to help your business, or you can use it to help fundraising for a charitable organization. Squidoo was started by the Original Squid, Seth Godin who I have to say is one of my favorite authors and original thinkers.
Tell me some of your favorite sites or just leave a comment about what you’ve read so far, your feedback as you can see means so much to me.
