I’ve been reading up on “promoting your offline business” lately. My husband and I have an offline business as well as our online Public Domain business.

We want to help “customers” find our small offline business “Online”.

We do not spend money on advertising our “local” business. Of course we do pay for business cards and graphics for our vehicles… but we do not put ads in the newspaper or yellow pages.

What works best for us is – promoting our offline business – Online.

I found this video from Ed Dale – The Thirty Day Challenge Guru!
