how to target sellers and merchants?

    Hi Guys,

    Desperate for some helpful advice here.

    I've set up a site qpomp[dot]com just about 6 month ago. The site offers merchants a method to market their coupons or deals using social media. Anyway, by now I've already invested in SEO, link building, pr and articles etc, though it got me some initial traffic, but realizing, I'm assuming I've been off target all along, since the free service offered by the site appeals to merchants only, thus we need to specifically target merchants, but I'm not real sure how to go about it, or which sites do merchants frequent, or perhaps I may need to think of cold calling, telemarketing, email marketing, or social media etc...; any ideas?

    Obviously, I'm inquiring about free systems to be used in this case, as I have no marketing budget, unless I discover it's not possible to do it free I would then be forced to sell the site all together.

    Would love to get some ideas, thanks :)
