I am interested in compiling a list of marketing and networking strategies,  for all stagers or for that matter anyone starting a business.  I believe if we can all participate, we can have a great compilation that anyone can refer to, to get inspired with new ideas to build their business

I will start with:

1.     Shmooze, shmooze. Meeting people is a great for name recognition.  In a group settings always keep you ear out for potential clients and approach them first.  Don't forget to give them your card.

2.     Join a networking group in your area.  Some of them put out magazines that you can write an article for. ( Womens Networking Groups, Small Business Centres, BNI, Chamber of Commerce)

3.     Get yourself published

4.     For Stagers join your local Real Estate Board as a Business Partner or affiliate

5.     One time, Inexpensive advertising. - Graphic sign on your vehicle - Gives you Name recognition - you want to be the first name that pops into potential clients minds.

6.     Don't forget gifts at Christmas for your agents that you work with.  Make gifts worthwhile.  And maybe cookie trays for the whole office.

There is  a lot more.  What strategies do you use.  I will leave it for everyone to help with our list.
