Today there are many players in market. In this world there is very big competition. Every organization says that we want to capture the whole market. But if there are new players or new businessmen and they want to enter the market but they do not have suffienct money for offline advertsing. The budget is very less for marketing and advertising. So what to do. The best options are submit your business details in local business directories which are free , social networking websites and mails. What are your views .please reply.

Thanks in advance

New entrants with almost no marketing budget need a tight, repeatable process rather than one-off tactics. correctly frames the problem; replies from , and others point at channels, but the practical gap is a simple system that turns a little time into predictable leads.

First, pick one specific customer and one clear offer (one sentence). Build a single conversion-focused landing page for that offer with a short benefit list, one clear call-to-action and minimal form fields. Attach a tiny lead magnet (checklist, short case summary or 5-minute video) so contact capture is frictionless. Run one small test each week (headline or CTA) and record results in a simple spreadsheet.

For people short on time (echoing ), use a 2-hour weekly growth routine: 40 minutes to create or repurpose one piece of content, 30 minutes of targeted outreach (5–10 personalized messages), 20 minutes of follow-ups/proposals, and 30 minutes for analytics and small experiments. Keep three ready templates (initial outreach, follow-up, referral request) to cut repetitive work and use an autoresponder to handle new signups.

Grow without big spend by making local partnerships and a referral engine: offer a small credit or discount for successful referrals, ask three recent customers for short testimonials, and propose simple swaps with 5–10 complementary businesses. Focus on compounding assets (email list, a single landing page, and testimonials) rather than scattering effort.

Measure three metrics only: visits to the landing page, conversion rate, and leads per week. After one month, stop approaches that don’t deliver and reallocate time to the winners. This process complements the channel ideas mentioned by , @mindestreak and while addressing the time and budget limits raised in the thread.

Yes social media marketing is best, specially Google+ for the purpose of SEO is best, for example if you want to get traffic on your website then social media marketing is best and if you want to rank higher on google then SEO is ultimate solution.

I agree with kiwistech, no doubt SMO and SEO are the best ways and if you need urgent results then u can use PPC for this.

I am a part-time freelancer and I have to say my two most successful responses have been from free advertising like gumtree but they now charge for services advertisements. I am always trying to find new ways to market myself and my business but am struggling to get any work as cant devote enough time to marketing as I do a full time job.

I would really appreciate some guidance on strategies or tactics I should employ to achieve a higher awareness of my business and generate leads

social media like facebook and behance is really good for you because social media can give you brand awareness and keep posting your portfolio.
