I'm not sure of what kind of market you're seeking.
If a local market, then start by visiting with your local recreation commissions that put together the Baseball, Basketball, Soccer, events for youth. (Offer a commission on sales.)
Second, Contact the Athletic Department, administration, Booster Clubs, and other organizations at your local school. (Offer a commission on sales.)
Third, make sure your local Chamber of Commerce is aware of your new business and service. You might want to consider joining the Chamber or other business organizations in your community.
Fourth, start walking into businesses and leaving information about our offering. Have a flier, or letter with information about your services, and what you can do. Make sure you target the Sales Manager.
Fifth, watch for public events where you can setup a table and show your offerings. Examples: Fairs, Auctions, Sporting Events, Concerts, Flea Markets, etc.
Sixth, look through you local phone book and newspaper, become very aware of every club, activity group, class, etc, that is happening in your community, and find out if they need these types of items. (Offer a commission on sales)
Seventh, go to local stores that sell specialty items, or clothing, tell them about your offerings, and what you can do to add names, images, etc to items. (Offer a commission on sales)
That list should keep you busy for weeks and weeks...
If you're looking for a national market, or an Internet market, then it's an entirely different story, but I'll stop with the local market, since I'm guessing that's what you're going after. |
