There are so many ways to get your enterprise before your potential customers. Marketing is at the heart of business and business involves people! Can you spell S O C I A L?
Not every thing listed is super critical but most are. A relevant review follows.

- Facebookk Ads and Twitter Chats can work miracles with your constituency. Also, Facebook groups can work wonders for your exposure
- Posting You tube video can work a special attraction effect. You Tube can help you in constructing free training. Training is an effective workhorse that satisfies curiosity and does a lot of conversion related lifting
- Investigate the new arrival Periscope for its social media effects
- Do a giveaway or special offer like a newsletter or e-book

- Make use of former clients for their assistance and expertise. Ask for referrals. You'd be surprised at the response

- Don't overlook the power of local media. This can be found and used in several channels from several businesses and locations to build a grass roots groundswell of effectiveness
- You can use local power even closer by hosting your own event. if you can do this in conjunction with something like a local charity you are so much the better off. This will allow you to tap in and magnify other networks
- Dont overlook the direct approach to interview others. First hand referral and support is unbeatable
- Make use of networking conferences, symposiums and keynote speaker events. Many times the subject of interest is marketing techniques
- Make blogging your friend. Do a guest post, write a review and comment on other's blogs
Don't stop there. There are as many ways to promote your business as there are personality types. Following these guidelines will virtually assure you of success.

I am only So-So in regards to Social media. For me, not relevant to 1 of my sites..and an absolute No-No..
One of the big drags is the time it takes. Post once and done and no interaction is gonna hurt your social media efforts..thus for me...VA does it for me, not software, no auto poster that does interact with the audience a real human person paid to do it.
A person, a Happy Misanthrope like me - I genuinely don't like being around people, not uncomfortable with - completely comfortable and confident in my own skin...and I do interact with people very well, sometimes incredibly well..I just can't can't be bothered with "being social" real or digital world...thus if I do it myself...
Not gonna be most effective...better get some to do it for me!
