The Rural Meeting Place A-Z of Promoting your Business

Over the next few weeks we will be blogging alphabetically about promoting your business with hints and tips of what you can do and perhaps for very little financial investment.
Business promotion is essential to keep your name in the Market Place and remind people that you are still here and ready to do business.
Many SME's do not have a marketing budget but it helps to have a marketing plan in place. When you get the phone call about cheap adverts etc you need to know what you want to achieve and where you want to be doing it from.
However you promote your business you want to be sure of achieving a Return On Investment (ROI) whether that be on your expenditure or on your time invested.
So, watch this space, for some ideas and please feel free to chip in with a few of your own.

Hi Carole,
Lovely to see you on my blog. Never think I'm important enough to join in with 'real businesses', but enjoy reading your ideas and once this horrid weather improves I hope to join you, but will feel rather silly with just my children's books and with only a little money to deal with as my books sell. However, now that English Heritage and Bamburgh Castle have taken a serious interest in me, you never know what might happen.
ps you keep making me hungry with your lovely description of meals....:0)
Carole.
