Hello, I own an online large format digital printing company... Industry Printing We sell and target to reseller or graphic designers... How can i effectively advertise my site so that i attract print broker, graphic designers and resellers... Please help Thanks
I forgot the name of the reference book, but it lists all the businesses. The library carries it. They will know the name of it. Start writing them all down, and mail them a post-card type advertisement. Run it by others for critique before mailing them off. Also get them to critique your site. Would they buy from you??? Do you know of anybody who is in that business? Maybe go to such a message board to ask for their critique also. You could e-mail your ad, but the way spam is nowadays. Also do a search for such businesses. That is your best, overall bet. The next idea is to either mail them or e-mail them a quick guide on free tips on how designers became successful, and other free tips that may interest them. If they like it, they may just contact you. There are a lot of designers who need more ideas, and if you can give it to 'em.... If you don't have any, ask others if they do, then pass it along. Again, get critiques before sending them off. Are there message boards, blogs, and other sites where they hang out? Send off your free tips there also. Colleges? Trade schools? Hit 'em up before they head out there in the real world. Take out pad and pen and write down anything that hits you. No matter how silly it may seem. Get your brain going for ideas.
