Advertising is the key to get to your target customers the fastest. It can be your pattern to be successful in business and to have a "trademark" in the market world.
If you want to use the power of advertising, listed below are the many forms of it you can use to boost your business higher than you can imagine. However, analyze carefully among these options on what will fit your business type, and more importantly, your budget.
Using Newspapers and Magazines. Advertising with the use of newspapers and magazines have two options: classified and display. Classifieds are the small ads at the back of the publication, while the display ads can be almost any size- from a small corner of a page to a massive double-page spread.
If there's a publication you're interested in advertising your cheap newsletters for example, either go to its website or call its advertising department directly to find out the rates it charges. With regard to the advertising charges, it usually varies on the space you want to put your cheap newsletters on. The bigger the space you want for your newsletters, of course, the higher the payment.
Using Radios. Wherever you are in the part of this globe, the chances are that there's a local radio station. Once your home business grows to a decent size, you might consider buying some time on it. Really, though, the only kind of home business that can benefit enough from radio ads to justify the cost is one that has to do with cars. Since radio is almost entirely limited to use as in-car entertainment now, you know that almost everyone your ad reaches will be a car-owner, and so might be interested in what you're offering.
If you offer something that people need cheaply or even for free, you can get a big response. Unfortunately, that response could be a little too big -- thanks to the time-sensitivity of radio, you'll get mobbed the next day, and then everyone will forget you again. Radio advertising offers the listener no opportunity to keep your ad and refer to it later, or to find it again in the future. You will find that any ads involving a phone number are spectacularly useless.
Using Television. Unless your business is getting pretty big, this would be quite a bad idea. You'd have trouble producing and airing an ad even on local cable channels for less than $10,000. Of course, if there's a market for your product and you've got the budget for this, you could take a gamble and make a mint. The home businesses that tend to do best out of TV ads are ones that have a 'unique and useful invention' product with easy-to-demonstrate benefits – think infomercial.
Using Billboards. Here's one that gets overlooked pretty often, but can be very effective if you do it right. Billboard ads are relatively expensive, but they do generally stay up for a long time. And they can be very specifically targeted to an area -- the one where they're physically located. You'll have the best results with this if you can put one near enough your shop that it could say 'turn left at the next junction', or something like that. Phone numbers are, again, pretty useless, although you could have some luck putting a website address up there.
Now, what type of media will be the best choice for your business?
