  • How about "fishbowls". Ask local merchants to display a bowl that says drop your card/info here to win a free gift....(Everyone wins at least a free sample!) I have never done this and I know others could add thier experiences with doing this!

    Another idea especially for the Health and Wellness Industry is to have a "newspaper" route to local Dentist and Doctor offices where you leave newspapers or phamplets on the tables in the waiting room.

    Where a T-Shirt when you shop! Many business have shirts that say something like: Ask me how I work from home, OR ask me for a free sample.....

  • This is wonderful.

    Thx for the tips!

    Can't seem to build your business on your own?? Hook up with a company that builds your downline "for" you!

  • Here's 2 more "free advertising" tips:

    put your web address on the outside of all your mail (bills, etc.) - it will be seen by the mailman, mail room personnel, and the person your sending it too.

    keep some products on hand and when there is a benefit in your area...put together a basket with business cards in it and donate it.
