There are several ways to advertise and get the word out about your business online and the best of them include free search engines, pay per click search engines, writing articles, utilizing press releases, doing joint ventures/ad co-ops, and posting to message boards and forums related to your target market. But one advertising method that's neglected by most online marketers is off-line advertising. There are several low/no cost ways to advertise off-line and I want to share 3 of them with you. 1) Business Cards If you are serious about your business you must have business cards. They are cheap and are a great way to attract potential prospects or customers. Simply hand them out to people who you feel may be interested in your business. Also, whenever I visit a restaurant, bar, or club, I'll leave my business cards in all of the bathroom stalls. (Just make sure nobody is in there of course... lol!) And don't laugh at this!

I have submitted it to A, B, and C companies. There are 3 major problems with submitting your resume to a company or Job Board. Number One: The Company loses if they haven't seen the resume. Typically the recruiter is now out of the process. There is no need to continue the conversation, because it's now in the clients resume "abyss." Therefore the recruiter is not entitled to a fee. Some clients have honored our pointing out that the resume has been previously submitted, and had it not been for the recruiter bringing it to the attention of the client company this person was currently being overlooked. Other companies don't want to know about a candidate that has been submitted, and they are not entertaining the candidate and you know they have a solid background for the position. There needs to be a policy in place to handle candidates that have submitted their resumes in the past, and they are currently not under consideration.Number Two: The candidate loses out because the resume is lost, and they can't get a shot...more
