Fun, Local and Free Marketing Ideas

Do you often wonder what new ideas you can try in local marketing for your MLM or even store front business? Well don’t feel alone, I am there quite often!

2. January is a fun month because it is a new beginning with New Year cards. I don’t work the same neighborhood month after month and I am able to use the same ideas over and over.

Inside the envelope I put a business flier and some hard wrapped candy. These were hung on the door handles.

4. For Easter marketing I purchased bags of the plastic eggs along with individual Easter wrapped candies. In the egg I put a folded up small business flyer along with the candy. I dropped the egg into a plastic door hanger bag and left it on the door handle.
