I am.

I've been online long enough to develop my system.

You have to build your business one day at a time. As you build your business, you'll develop your system.

I remember as a little kid visiting my Uncle Bill.

Uncle Bill had a corner store in South Philly.

On every visit, Uncle Bill would call all of us intorepparttar dining room. He'd turn to my mother and say, "Mommy Naomi you tell them."

My mother would always turn to Uncle Bill and say, "Uncle Bill, Ya gotta have a system."

Uncle Bill would get a big smile and say, "Hear that boys. Mommy Naomi knows."

We would laugh. We never understood how true those words were.

Now I realize so many years later, my mom and Uncle Bill were sharing "Pearls Of Wisdom."

If you're serious about your business, heedrepparttar 121504 words of advice from my mom and Uncle Bill.

Ya Gotta Have A System.

Keep your billboard message simple. There is no way people will understand detailed copy at 70 miles per hour. A headline, graphic and two bullets are generally all you want to include.

Include a photo or graphic, something colorful, to help draw attention to your billboard.

Make sure your phone number is easy to read and remember. List it with letters instead of numbers. Most people can't drive onrepparttar freeway and take down your number atrepparttar 121503 same time. They might try, but you don't want to be responsible for what happens.

If you need to scrimp on advertising, get cheaper rates by buying packages, multiple months, or negotiating your own billboard location with a property owner.

*Advertise on your car--As cities sprawl and commutes become longer and slower, advertising on your car becomes an effective and extremely cheap way to get your name out.

Because we tend to drive along withrepparttar 121504 same group of cars for significant distances, people can see your sign for 15 to 20 minutes. It's like a traveling infomercial.

You can use magnetic signs, window stickers, or have your message painted onrepparttar 121505 side of your car, van, or truck.

An old media trick is to number your vehicles. If you have two vans, number them 3 and 7. People will think you have a fleet. Sometimes,repparttar 121506 bigger people think your operation is,repparttar 121507 more they will trust you.

*Wear your advertising--They are called "wearables," all those shirts and hats with your ads, logos and slogans printed on them.

Using wearables kills two birds with one stone: first, you create a bond withrepparttar 121508 potential customer when you give them something free. Second, those people will do your advertising for you by wearing your free gift.

When you design a wearable, do something eye catching, something that people will want to wear. I won't wear a T-shirt with just a name and phone number in block letters. I will wear a T-shirt that has a cool graphic on it.

A word torepparttar 121509 wise--don't just offer XXL T-shirts and hats that only men would want. Women control spending in America, so you want to cater to them. Offer as many medium sized T-shirts as XXXL T-shirts.
