Good Old Fashioned Networking
(Page 1 of 3 )
Do you think only about the Internet when you try to come up with ways to promote your website? Think again. Your customers don't live on the Internet -- why not reach them where they
do live? Wayne Hurlbert explains.
When most website owners think of website promotion, the first ideas that usually spring to mind almost exclusively involve the Internet. In the real world, however, the webmaster doesn’t live on the Internet alone, nor do potential visitors to your website.
People have a life away from the Internet. They attend business functions, social events, and sometimes you just meet someone by chance. Every person you encounter in the offline world could be a potential customer for your products and services. When you meet someone for the first time, one of the first questions they may ask is what you do for a living. This is a golden opportunity to gain free publicity.
Telling people you meet every day about your business and website is simply good old fashioned networking. It’s a classic business technique that the Internet never put out of style. It’s time to put this time-proven business builder to work for you.
