Marketing can be expensive and most small business owners don’t have big marketing budgets. So looking for targeted ways
to get free marketing exposure is a great solution. You may have considered public relations as a low cost marketing tactic, but
what if you can’t write, or you don’t have the time to sit down and write a press release?

Well, there’s an easy way to get publicity that does not even require you to write a press release. Try donating your product or service for an auction or give away free offers. Very often, associations, groups and charities conduct live or silent auctions at their events. Or they give away free offers to attendees to encourage attendance. Why not donate your product, service or free offers and benefit from the free marketing exposure it can generate.

Typically you will receive promotion during the event, and in the event program. You benefit from the implied endorsement of the group conducting the event, and goodwill associated
with giving away your products or services. You may even be able to write off the cost as a business expense. (Please check with your tax advisor).

And, not only will you receive free exposure, you will also gain a new customer. Who could tell a few friends, who could tell a few friends, who could tell a few friends … you see where this is going. The famous word of mouth advertising. It’s a great way to get free exposure for your products or services and start to generate new customers.

You will want to choose an organization whose members, and event attendees, closely match your ideal customer. Take a look at your customers and prospects. Then try to find groups and associations who service these types of people.

Perhaps your local Little League or Soccer organization is looking for auction items to raise money for its upcoming season.

Do you target corporate professionals in high-stress jobs such as finance, advertising and marketing, or technology? Look for the local chapters of trade associations servicing these industries. They typically hold monthly meetings, plus larger annual events.

It really depends on who your prospects are. Your goal with any marketing activity is to gain exposure among your target audience. So select an organization or group whose members match your clients, and odds are they will be interested in your services and your business will benefit from this highly-targeted marketing exposure.

Free Offers and word of mouth is an awesome way to marketing successfuly your products or services.
