4 ways to market your business online?

I would like to hear people's opinion. I recently opened a small boutique in Manhattan, NY and want to know what are the free ways to market or advertise my business on line. I use Craigslist and CitySearch, but no such luck. Is their a website like myspace that can attract local shoppers?

Hi, Dame M!

I'll give you 3!

1. Become an expert on the subject.
Most people are not doing this, so you'll have an edge up. Start marketing yourself in forums, chatrooms, and blogs as an expert on whatever your website's subject is. Find out why your product, service, or website is better than anyone else's. (Then tell other people that!)

2. Give away tons of free samples of your product.
With online websites, it's really easy to find 100000 websites that sell or do the same thing. Make people able to TRUST your website by giving away your product for free, and then by having people write back in and saying how well it's worked for them. Otherwise, they won't trust you, and they'll just leave.

3. Come up with, and market, your USP.
(Unique Selling Point) You need to show people why you're better than anyone else!Anyways, I hoped this helped. This stuff is just the TIP of the iceberg of marketing!

Good luck!

Hey Dame!

Andrew Morgan here from San Marcos, Texas
and I am a 28 year student of the marketing industry.

Also, I am now :
a
Personal Success Trainer
a
Marketing Success Coach
and a
Winning Mindsets Trainer

I ditto Andy's reply in the respect that you become and
present yourself the expert in your field of business that
you have chosen.

No fluff, no smoke and no mirrors, I teach people how to
successfully market ANYTHING legal and moral of their
choice, but not for free. It will cost you your actual first name
and actual email address to have access to MY information:
WhoIsAndrewJMorgan.com

Why? Because I am a successful business man doing
business in a market where people like yourself are
floundering around and failing. And because I know how
to teach you the master marketing methods I use on a
daily basis that allow me to enjoy my current "stay at
home income".

I know that your business is a brick and mortar type, so,
answering your question is an undertaking that must be
treated with respect and time. Short answers, blind
leading and blind following are what create disaster.
I KNOW! I own a successful brick and mortar business too:
TheRovingArborist.com

You and I will want to know much about each other,
each other's businesses, and I will need to know your
exact desires about your business in the next 6 months,
1.5 years and 3 years from now in order to direct you to
the correct place for your successful ad campaign.

If you want to guarantee yourself your own success,
I suggest that you "try" nothing.. Try implies failure.
I suggest that you "do" what is proven and I can teach
you THAT in many areas.
