    I`m a huge proponent of article marketing.

    I would suggest thinking about your service from your potential customer`s perspective...what is the benefit that they get from hiring you?
    Then think through how you might get your business name in front of them.  Most often, small businesses overlook the power of having a strong community presence by writing a few how to articles for your local community paper.
    Most often, people sit down with a local community paper, or newsletter and scan through many of the articles.  This way your potential customer market can become familiar with who you are and what you have to offer them.
    Also, some networking professionals have gotten their business noticed by giving specialized speeches or workshops in their communities.
    Your goal is really to get your local market familiar enough with your service that they think of you when it is time for networking stuff.
    And...if you follow all of this up with a strong web presence, then you will increase your odds of success tremendously.
    Best of luck to you!latarsha2007-8-22 18:49:19
