I want to add some useful information to the advertising section, as advertising is playing an important role to make the businesses strong. The things which we send to our customers like envelopes and carbonless forms should must have the name and contact number of the company, so that anyone may get the required information easily. Now a days many online printing companies are providing the online printings of envelopes in full color printing with your company name and logo printed. This type of attractive envelopes are very useful to promote the brand.

It really depends on the business. For some businesses it is picking up the phone and making direct contact. Other businesses do best with paid advertising on related sites... or seo... or social media... etc. It depends where your customers are, how you want to present the business, your budget, and the easiest path to acquire customers.

I have an SEO firm that I started with a press release, some conversations on a few message boards and paid ads. It is ironic that an SEO firm did not use SEO, but SEO takes time. The press release and paid ads was the fastest way to get a nice ROI.

There are so many options. Just put a plan together and go for it.

My best choice for long-term advertising and promotion is "link exchange". The more backlinks you have, the more your site get exposed in search engines.

Ideal and the best way to do business promotion is through advertisement. There are many a agencies that would help in promoting the business, this is done through media placements, do some live broadcasting of their products, this way a good public relation would be created which would help in promoting the business.

asim.adeel has given a pretty detailed explanation of how you can do promotion. I guess I'll just have to give some sort of a summary. Actually, what you should be looking for are ways that actually work. Yes, there are "ideal" ways but we're in the "real" world, so better think of the stuff that actually work. Those classic ways of advertisement, e.g. TV ads, print ads, word of mouth, can still work for you. The new ways would involve the application of mobile technology and the Internet.
