Your no charge gift or a no charge teleseminar that offers value and gets people on your list is a great marketing tool.
That way you will be able to build relationships with them and offer your services to them after they have gotten to know you.
Doing this will get you many more service clients than just promoting your services on social networking web sites.

A marketing move or a gamble?
Have you ever felt like you were gambling when you made a marketing move? Maybe you took out an advertisement somewhere...or maybe you didn't because it felt too risky.
You could write your ad, and pick a perfect spot to put it, but who knows if it would actually WORK? Would you make the money back that you spent? Did you know that NOBODY knows the answer to this question right off the bat? Not even the most seasoned marketing experts.
Of course, with experience comes a better ability to guess. But there's a way to take the guesswork out of it. Once I learned about this, I simply haven't been able to not do it. And I've heard the same from countless marketers out there.
Why gamble if you don't have to? The answer? TEST your marketing.
Instead of just taking out one ad and seeing if it works...Takeout a few. And make them different. Then, measure the responses, and you'll be gathering hard, statistical information on what works and what doesn't.
It sounds simple, but once you get into it, you're on to the real power of marketing. You will learn so much from this, I promise.
One of the best things you can look at for learning purposes is how many of your emails were opened, based on a given subject line. After trying a few different subject lines and looking at the percentage that are opened, you will really hone your skills on how to write effective subject lines for a given situation.
The subject line is the most important feature of an email too-- if it isn't any good, the rest of the email won't even be read -- they never opened it!

Many famous, successful people start off in places worse than we're at.
Dan Akroyd was a mail sorter for Canada's national postal service.
Jennifer Aniston was both a telemarketer and waitress before hitting it big.
Halle Berry worked at Higbee's Department store in the children's department.
Chubby Checker plucked chickens at a poultry market named Henry Colt's.
Bill Cosby shined shoes and sold produce when he was young.
Michael Dell washed dishes at a Chinese restaurant for $2.30 per hour.
So what does this have to do with networking and your business?
Well everyday there are emails from home business owners who’ve just gotten started in a great opportunity like the We Provide The Cash business, also known as Home Seller Assist, created by John Alexander.
They're All At The Bottom, And They're All Asking The Same Thing…
“I’m a brand new distributor for my company, but I’m on a very limited advertising budget. I need to make money fast. What should I do first!?”
Well that’s a perfectly reasonable question, and the information I’m about to share with you allowed one person to go from waiting tables, to 7-figures in less than 18 months.
But the first thing I want you to know is that you’re really not disadvantaged if you’re building on a budget. I know that might be hard to swallow, but your limited budget only becomes a problem when you try to pursue your business in the same manner as someone who ISN’T on a budget. Which is exactly what most new business owners do. They throw every last dime they can find into leads, PPC campaigns, postcards, banners, and co-ops, and that’s fine if you’re already making money, but if you’re on a budget, watch out…
Spending your limited funds on an advertising campaign is the biggest mistake you can make. Why?Because if you spend your $500 on leads, PPC, fliers, business cards, or a postcard campaign, you’ll probably get a few prospects, but if you don’t sponsor any of them, you’re back to square one. There’s no way to leverage the results over and over again in the future.Once you’ve called through your leads, it’s game over! You need more leads!And now you’re forced to spend more money to keep this endless cycle going. It’s like trying to build a business “from pay-check to pay-check”, and only a lucky few will ever come out ahead before they’re financially forced to call it quits.
Commodity investors don't physically buy orange juice and store it at their home. Just like leads, the juice goes bad over time. Instead, they invest in commodities stocks because they can be leveraged over and over again in the future.
So what I’d like to do now is give you an alternative option for one simple reason… It’s the strategy that allowed one person to go from waiting tables to 7 figures within 18 months.
So Here’s What You Do…What you want to do is invest your funds into “high leverage” skills and simple activities, which you can use over and over again to quickly and easily produce more leads any time you want… for FREE.
And that’s become very easy to do thanks to some BIG changes which have taken place in the online world recently…If you were going to market online in the past, you had to be a certified search engine expert, or a wizard at pay-per-click with deep pockets full of cash in order to get enough traffic. It hasn’t been easy, and most new business owners who didn’t grow up with a Play Station in their hands feel intimidated by it.
Well thanks to new Web 2.0 sites we have today like MySpace, FaceBook, YouTube, CraigsList, and Ebay, you don’t have to spend big bucks, to tap into this massive flood of FREE traffic… I mean why pay for leads and advertising when you can get them for free!? And the best part is that you don’t even need to be a computer expert to start using these simple tactics the very same day…
Obviously if someone’s on a budget, they can’t afford to spend a lot of money on a marketing course. Second, it has to be easy to follow and understand, even for people who aren’t very computer savvy. Personally, I learn best when I can watch someone actually do it for me first…
Remember... At one point or another, you're going to have a new member asking you, "what should I do now? I don't have a lot of money to spend on marketing?"
I use this stuff every single day and it’s easier than you think.
