I get a lot of e-mail from people who are in the process of starting a service business and need to get clients. Starting a business is a HUGE undertaking – you need to take care of finances, PR, sales, administrative tasks and much more. But you really NEED to drive clients to your business. Without clients, you business will not be able to exist for long.

– Define your target market, people who want, need and can afford your services. Where can you meet these people?

– Create a web site with information about your products and services that would appeal to your target market

– Start an e-mail list, so that you can share tips with your target audience and collect their e-mail addresses for future marketing

– Start using search engine optimization and other marketing methods to drive traffic to your web site
