    Some offline marketing tips:

    1- Use Text stickers (your url) on your car and ask if your friends/family will do the same:)

    2- Make flyers and leave them at public places like Mc Donalds

    3- Make stickers and attach them to stoplights, streetlights, trashcans etc.( at your own risk)

    4- Living in the city or know somebody else? great, now you can have a flag or BIG flyer in front of your window

    5- Leave some cd's behind public places with the text confidential, people will take a peak at it;)(this one is pretty expensive but you can convert this into other ideas, like small gift package with only a note of your url)

    When I first got into marketing, I thought those were all great ideas. Now, however....

    By the time they do all of that, and hit one spot after another after another after another, they would have put in more hours and got paid less than a person on minimum wage.

    It's too bad, because on the surface they seem like good ideas.

    It also depend on what kind of service or products you sell.
    I mean for adsense sites this won't work.
    But let say that you sell gadgets around xmas time it might work if you do it smart.
