Branson on Business: Marketing in tough times
Category: Business Advertising | Oct 07, 2009 |
Cheap business advertising is not only available, but it can set your sales on fire. If you think cheap means ineffective you are dead wrong.
For decades I have watched every kind of advertising for business with almost zero startup funds for advertising. Even more impressive. I have seen failing businesses be taken over by savvy managers and completely turned around again with almost zero cash. Here is how they did it.
Radio advertising for free, Internet presence for free and cheap business lists to market directly to their prospects through inexpensive faxing and e-mailing.
You may be thinking I have completely lost my mind when I mention free radio advertising. Believe it or not, it is extremely common practice for radio stations to trade advertising for every kind of product and service you can imagine. They love to save cash. They will trade advertising for food, clothing, gasoline for vehicles, catering, cleaning and the list goes on.
Simply contact the general sales manager at your local stations by phone. When you speak to them get straight to the point. They are used to fielding calls like this. Tell them what you have and see if they\\\’re interested. If they don\\\’t bite right away just leave your contact info and I can guarantee you will get a call in the future.
Can\\\’t afford thousands of dollars for a web site? No problem. Local colleges and universities are filled with students studying Internet Design that are begging for experience. Just contact the placement or guidance officers at local schools.
Last on our quick list of cheap business advertising is making use of business lists in the form of fax lists and e-mail lists. As an example I have watched many local restaurants make an absolute return on investment killing by sending out regular menu specials by fax to local area businesses. Just make sure to check local laws on electronic communication before proceeding.Watch the video related to Business advertising

If you are building a business case and you need Advertising CPMs, I would do the following:
- Identify the type of site, content and audience you are likely to attract.
- Find sites that are comparable to the profile you have built.
- Categorize the types of pages you will build (e.g. home page, bulletin boards.
- Call/contact the sites with comparable content and ask them what CPM they would charge you to advertise on their pages.
You can also sign up for a Google Adsense account

They cannot tell you how much money you will make but they may help you with some perspective and feedback on your assumptions.

Craigs list and other free classifieds online are good options. Just do a search on free classifieds. Learn to use the forums. They are not hard. If you can post here on Yahoo answers, you can post on a forum. Those are the best ways to get your name out. I also have a home business and do these same things.
Good Luck.

If you have a website you can register your site with google and yahoo for free. Just go to google.com/addurl (i don't know the yahoo one) also you can google 'free engine submission' and by registering your site that can give you some sort of 'free' traffic. Make sure your meta tags have the best researched keywords and description. So, you can pull in more traffic. Another good site is http://offto.net they have something on 'free' traffic you might want to look that up.
