by Matt Bacak

It’s amazing how many new businesses fail. The owners always seem surprised because they felt they had a great idea or product. One of the main reasons they failed is that they didn’t apply the rule ‘promote yourself’.

If you don't promote yourself or your business, how can you expect people to buy your product or service? These business failures are especially tragic because there are many simple and cost effective ways to promote yourself.

10 Low Cost Ways to Promote Yourself

1. Write articles and offer them for free publication. Publishers are looking for content for websites, newsletters etc. Make a stipulation that your bio (a subtle technique to promote yourself) and contact information is maintained at the end.

2. Create and giveaway a free e-book. In the e-book include an 'About the Author' section which is where you will promote yourself or your business.

3. Use your email mailing list. One of the best ways to promote yourself is to provide your list subscribers with interesting information that occasionally promote yourself or your business.

7. Establish a training class. Your class could be live, online or even over the phone. Make sure to promote yourself through your 'teacher bio' which includes information about yourself and your business.

8. Create case studies. Case studies can promote yourself because they are a well-crafted stories about another of your client's successes. Post these case studies online or even consider them for a press release.

9. Add a business card/bio to the end of every email. Every email is another chance to promote yourself. Keep it short and simple.
