No marketing budget? No problem.

Published: Sun, 08/16/20

It’s a myth that you need a huge marketing budget to grow your business.

In fact, you can make a splash using nothing but free tools. Here are some ideas to market your business without breaking the bank.

Idea #1: Create an online business directory.

Think: digital version of the Yellow Pages phone book. Set up your business directory on Google, Yelp, Apple Maps or industry specific directories like Zillow and TripAdvisor to make it easy for your business to be found.

Idea #2: Post on social media.

Sharing, engaging, and interacting with your followers on social platforms is completely free — and can be a great tool to build customer loyalty.

The downside is you don’t have total control over who sees your messages and when (thanks, algorithms). Which brings me to….

Idea #3: Free email marketing tools.

Email marketing is ranked as the most effective marketing channel. No other tool lets you personalize, automate, and build deep relationships the way you can with email.

Plus, with a tool like AWeber Free, you get more than free email marketing — you get email design tools, campaign automation, sign up forms, landing pages, 100s of integrations, 24/7 support, and so much more.
