Marketing Online For Business Startups

If an item as lowly as a Figit Spinner can take the Internet by storm in as little as three days and show up in class rooms across the nation a short week later, why can't your business power up and show up?
Let's max out a list of possible marketing options for your business online, within the next ten days and see if we can't send your business to the front page!
Are you ready?
  • Facebook Fan Page. Invite your friends.
  • Twitter #hashtags. Capture attention with keyword tags.
  • LinkedIn Articles. Share with your groups. Tweet it out!
  • Pinterest? Oh yes. Share your pictures. Show them off.
  • Tumbler. Definitely, tumble out your release.
  • Blogger. Share it. Reblog it. Invite friends to post it.
  • WordPress. Reposting. News blast. Blog blast. Notify.
  • Sumo. Kill it with Sumo, and share it everywhere Sumo goes.
  • Yelp. Review it. Post it. Renew it.
  • Amazon. Write it. Book it. Create a White Paper. Sell it.
  • eBay. Auction block it. Post it. Reuse it.
  • StumbleUpOn. Send it out with keyword precision.
  • MapIt. Put your address on the map.
  • Google it. Make sure you've registered your business with Google.
  • Bing it. Register on Bing and show up on the wall.
  • Yahoo it. Send it out to Yahoo News. Post it. Update it. Press Release it.
  • Snapchat it? Of course, post a picture and meme it.
  • WordStream it.
  • PPC it.
  • Banner ad and Press Release it.
  • As your friends to share it. Scare it. Double dare it.
  • Sing it. Make it a celebrity.
  • YouTube it. Video and Audio share it.
  • SlideShare it. Add the slides and words to it.
  • Groupon it. Coupons work. Discount it.
  • TRY to hide it.
  • Secretize it.
I don't know about you, but some of the most exciting, most responsive advertising I've found online is FUN. When you're really having a good time sharing your business on the internet, others want to know what you've got. A great way to market your business online, is to stir up some action.
Food places and coffee shops can invite tribute artists to come in for a visit. Imagine, photos of Elvis seated at the coffee bar with your customers? Or maybe your customers are younger and would prefer Taylor Swift. My favorite recent marketing event was a joint effort with a coffee shop /bookstore where a book signing took place, and we invited local football team members to come by and sign autographs.
Need an event? Find a local celebrity and send out the press releases. Be sure your Social Media is turned on!
