Home-based Business Tip - Advertising

Nona Allen

Congratulations to me! I have taken the first step to entrepreneurship. I have literally pulled my passion from the closet and am now using it to make a little money. Things are great with my business except for one small thing that makes a BIG difference. I have a great product or service, but no one knows about me!

How do I effectively get the word out about my business by using the least amount of money possible? Billboards and newspaper ads are too costly. Television and radio commercials are just not practical. Flyers and handbills are a good idea, but do they really reach the target audience? Is there any marketing strategy that is free?!?

Is the above scenario familiar to you? If you answered “Yes”, you’ve come to the right place for advice.

One rule of thumb is that retirees will need approximately 80% of their pre-retirement salaries to maintain their lifestyles in retirement. However, depending on your own situation and the type of retirement you hope to have, that number may be higher or lower.
