July 8, 2009OK, my fiance and I have started a little online business, but here’s the kicker: starting it up cost all we could spare! We’ve nothing left for advertising, and, as you know, no advertising= no sign ups= no sales!
I’ve looked for free advertising, free email opt in lists, anything I can think of, soooooooooooo, does anyone have any ideas? Free or very low cost advertising that works? The traffic exchange programs ain’t going too well. Please help if you know anything! I know this could work, we just need to get our foot in the door!
