how to advertise free ?

hi, i run a small business, a bit technical in nature, mainly providing service. how can i advertise it for free ?
Answer #1
print off flyers… talk to people with the same needs as your company provides.
another way is to go on to forums… and post things relating to ur business, just like this… or replying to someones needs… outlining what u do etc and provide some help.
i’ve talked to people, posted on forums… and it does work.
but if ur looking for free advertising…. think again.
you gota spend money to make money.
its a quote that will serve everyone and anyone well.
