Every small business could use more money, but if you aren`t making a lot right now, then you can “make” more by using frugal blue chip marketing tips! It`s something that can benefit companies of any size, but smaller ones will find it most useful, of course.

Network, network, network. It`s free marketing! Whether you`re at a conference, a community potluck or online in social marketing forums, make sure you put yourself out there and make your business known.

Get a blog. If you don`t already have a business blog, then this should definitely be on the to do list. It`s cost effective and yet a great way to boost your visibility online.

Encourage word of mouth. There are plenty of ways to do this, offer a discount for telling a friend, set up an affiliate program, or offer rewards or 2 for 1 deals for those who bring a friend.

All of these are low cost and yet still very effective. Small businesses can really benefit from implementing these types of marketing techniques into their daily routine.
