A friend of mine uses My Space a lot for his business. You just find people in your location and send out messages about your services. The INTERNET is the greatest thing for free advertising. If you look around at places like Craig's List and others there are all kinds of places to place free ads. You should especially try to find a site meant just for your area, like your towns home page or something along those lines. Also try to go door to door in an older more elderly neighborhood. Target the areas where people are in most need of your service.

best advertising is always word of mouth.. but a lot of people are using myspace and facebook to do cheap advertising (and bug their friends :S )



YA
Ask customers for referrals. Use a sob story if applicable, but without the slight cynicism that I accidentally let out. Also, posting flyers. Coupons. Email.

post a flyer at the grocery store and place an ad on Craigs list

get a printer and print out posters, get some tape so you can mount your posters on streetlight posts and also, get some business cards printed.

It will cost you about £5 (not including the printer)

Lots of ways. For example, distribute fliers and business cards to houses along the routes you usually go. A flier is just a few cents. And you can get (nearly) free business cards from VistaPrint.

Have a T-shirt or cap (or both) made up that you wear when dog walking. You can have a single shirt made up at CafePress for about $15. (You can even have a dog jacket customized at CafePress.) The T-shirt, cap, etc., would promote your services.

Or try this: Offer each of your customers a free whatever (a number of dog walks or washings--whatever would work out to be about $10 of your services, more or less) for any referrals. So, Mrs. A uses you to walk her dog. She refers Mrs. B to you, who hires you. You give Mrs. A a $10 (or $15 or whatever) gift certificate for your services.

Contact a local volunteer dog adoption group. Ask to be allowed to leave or distribute fliers at their pet adoption days. In return, you'll donate $10 to the group for every new customer you get. (It costs you nothing if there are no new customers; if you get new customers, convert them and you'll make far more than the $10 you're donating.)

Those are just a few ideas. But they should get you started.

Make up some fliers on your computer and print them out and hand them out around your neighbourhood.
