Small Business Marketing Tactic: Make Sure Your Friends Know What You Do!

Yes, I know it sounds simple because it is. Make it a point to let ALL of your friends, family, neighbors, etc know exactly what you do for a living. People like to do business with their friends, so it's important they know what you do.

Just possibly, they will even start telling their network of friends, family, neighbors, etc.

Of course, do NOT bombard them with a marketing pitch that threatens your relationships and leaves them feeling abused, simply make it a point to let them know your business. There's a high probability they are connected with your target audience members, and this knowledge could prove extremely valuable to the success of your business.
