A few days ago I put a simple question out on LinkedIn…What’s your best small business marketing idea?
Within 48-hours I had 31 responses…Ah, the power of social networks!
My idea is to join online and offline social networks…Join and start conversations.
Here are the 31 others… 31 Small Business Marketing Ideas.

Ah yes Tim – love it! Social networks are super powerful and bursting at the seams with lead gen for small business.
Wow ..you got that many responses from linkedin! That’s good for me to read as I always sway towards Facebook and Twitter – why? because these two platforms are growing quicker than my leg hair when it was in a plaster cast!
One of the many simple strategies I use when marketing our business is using our blog as a bouncing pad. One of us writes a post (specifically tailored to our target market) then we shoot it out on Twitter and Facebook along with our other social networking platforms. Twitter and Facebook prove to be the most effective for us. From here we get click throughs to our site/blog and also lot’s of RT (re-tweets) on twitter!
Lead gen and branding presence at it’s best- we have also build up a powerful community too now!
Love your site Tim and your blog! It’s warm, friendly and super supportive! You’re a gun!
Catch ya on twitter.
