Hi all,

I am looking for some advertising techniques (on a budget) that you have found to be worthwhile.

Thanks.

I would suggest going to the local chamber of commerce and see if there are any meetings coming up were you can do some social networking you are only looking at the cost of business cards, also see if there are any ria (real estate investor club) you might get some good leads from there, always good to advertise in the local news paper and see how that works for you, and remember craigslist is your friend and its free.

I think that it's wise to experiment with various methods of reaching out to your target market to see what works best - and Suave's suggestions are a great start. I've heard lots of great feedback from VAs who participate in their local chamber of commerce.

Also, do take the time to scan through the various topic sections devoted to marketing and networking, you'll find lots of tips and suggestions throughout.
You'll find sections on Direct Mail Marketing, Print and Promo Advertising, Press Releases, etc. - all of which can be done on a budget. (Of course, in order to ensure that you're not wasting your advertising dollars by advertising to anyone and everyone it's important to know just who you're trying to reach - so be sure to pinpoint your target market(s) first.)
