profession.
IV. Contact your existing customers with a personal handwritten letter of
appreciation to help with customer retention also write an ad in another language to
reach the non-English-speaking market. Place the ad in a publication that market reads,
such as a Hispanic newspaper or websites that cater to other ethnicities.
V. Post on as many directories that you can find. Be sure to check the address and
name of the business to assure that all of the information is congruent. This is the key
to organic placement. The algorithms/crawlers/spiders that determine which companyβs
has authentic, legitimate service to provide to the public makethis determination by
finding your company being the same everywhere. Donβt spell street on one location
and then St. on another. These Algorithms will not recognize your business as one and
the same. This is VERY IMPORTANT!
VI. Always collect emails and respond timely to those people that took the time to
visit your site.

content will propagate

mouth travels faster than all other forms of advertisements.
VIII. Start a referrals program to reward current customers, employees or partners for bringing in
new business, this shows that you appreciate your customers. The saying goes. 80% of your
business comes from 20% of your loyal customers. Show them you value them and their
patronage to your establishment.
2. IX. Offer discounts to members of certain clubs/ groups/organizations/websites in exchange for
promotions in their publications. This could also include asking similar non competing business
to allow them to put a link on their site in exchange for you creating a section on your site for
them to post. This could bring customers at no charge to you. It is called Shared linking.
X. Comment on popular blogs sites including your company logo or website URL. Some site will
disallow this. However; most do not really care. This again is free advertising.
