Organize an Event
Think about a cause that is close to your line of business. It can be a charity event, a sports event or anything that you ca think off that will turn heads and newspapers your way. Sponsor it and don’t be too pushy but let your logo and your company name be visible and clearly responsible for the good deed you are doing. It really doesn’t have to be much, but it will help you build your brand. 2015 will be big on small businesses and local businesses, so make sure you are visible and known in your local area.
Make Excellent Promotional Products
The best promotional products are the ones that are well made and have high quality and that are useful. It is because people want to save those products and they stick to them. This increases the chances of the info and company name to mean something to them and they are more likely to become your customers.

It can never be stressed enough that all these things need to be on a budget. That is evergreen advice that any marketing expert will tell you.
