100 Creative Ways to Advertise & Market Your Biz
Offline! - 4
#31. Hold a local area community Block Party at your
home or local community center! Families are always
looking for something to do during the nice weather
seasons!
Optional: Attend your neighborhood block party and set
up a table with your product offerings or samples. Get
out there in your community and get your business
seen!
#32. Get your business listed in your cities telephone
book yellow pages! A lot of them also have a coupon
section too!
#33. You can take this phone book advertising one step
further by finding out what company makes the plastic
vinyl phone book covers which have local business ads
on them and get your business added to it!
#34. Get your business information printed up on
pencils and hand them out to local colleges and
technical schools for them to hand out to their adult
students! This keeps your business information in
front of them! (make sure you only donate them to
schools with adult students).
#35. Get a vehicle banner made for your automobile. I
recommend the vinyl window clings or vinyl cling ones
that stick to your automobile but dont scratch or
remove the paint. You can easily remove them when
washing your vehicle!
#36. If your city has a travel guide that tourists
request, contact that business and find out how you
can advertise in it too!
#37. Local City Maps! These days even city maps have
advertising on them! You can usually get a small
business ad printed on them for an economical price.
Don't advertise your personal location. If you dont
have a business location then advertise your website
address or email address.
#38. Contact local area hotels, motels and bed &
breakfast inns and ask them if you can do up a Lobby
Basket and leave it in their Lobby.
What is a Lobby Basket? You make up little packs of
info about your business & products and put them into
the Lobby Basket for their patrons to take.
They usually have a pamphlet wall or area too with
pamplets from local area attractions etc. If they dont
have a lobby basket area, inquire about leaving your
business info in their pamphlet area.
#39. Get your business info printed up on balloons!
This is very economical to do! You then distribute
them to local community centers, sporting events and
other types of places where parents book their
childrens birthday parties!
These balloons can be displayed at the birthday party
giving you business exposure. You can usually get them
done for .3-.8 cents each. Your business name &
website address is all you need on them!
#40. Find a few other self employeed business owners
in your community and team up! You can all sponsor a
local parade float, parade clowns etc. Make up signs
with your business info imprinted on them so that you
can receive some great business exposure during the
parade! Next >>
