For many of you that are business owners I am sure you know what I am talking about. As SMB’s (small to medium sized businesses) begin to scale down one of the first things that they look to is marketing. The assume that they have an established client base and they can scale back for now. If I know anything it’s that during times like these marketing needs to be increased, you just have to know how to go about it.
Online classifieds is a booming industry that allows people from all over the nation to sell & buy goods and services. The beauty of this industry is that its free for all that use it and many of the SMB’s do not take advantage of these websites. For example http://www.Verblist.net is a website that is reaching out to SMB’s and encouraging them to list their products and services on their website for free. Now enough of this let’s get on with the list.
