The opportunities for getting free advertising for your product or services are only limited by your imagination and energy. There are so many proven ways to promote without cost it’s truly mind-boggling! Here are ten proven methods.1. Write an article relating to your area of expertise and submit it to all publications and media dealing in that range of interest. Become your own promoter and writer. Get word out by establishing yourself as an expert on that topic and "tag-along" everything you write with a reference box listing your address for a catalog, dealership opportunity, or more information. 2. Write shorter articles for Internet and send them to broadcast houses free articles. (These are known as "media- matching medias.") Here are a few sites to get you started: http://www.IdeaMarketers.com http://www.addme.com http://www.ezinearticles.com/ http://www.web-source.net/syndicator_submit.htm. 3. Become a guest on as many radio, television talk shows, or interview-type programs as possible. (Actually, this is easier to accomplish than most people realize!) Write a letter to producer of talk show, and then follow up with an in-person visit or telephone call. Your initial contact needs to emphasize how your product or service would be of interest to listeners or viewers of their program - perhaps even saving them time or money. 4. Post your advertising circulars on all free bulletin boards in your area, especially libraries, grocery stores, and beauty and barbershops. Don't discount idea of handing out circulars to all shoppers in busy shopping centers, at bus or metro stops, and malls, especially on weekends. You can also enlist help of students to hand out circulars. 5. Print your product or service’s promotional ad on front or back of your envelopes or other people’s envelopes.**

A VoIP, in essence, is a computer phone that allows you to make phone calls from your computer to anyone in world, e.g., PC to PC, PC to landlines, or PC to cell phones. The voice signal converts to data packets and travels across internet through a VoIP platform, and then converts back to voice at receiving end of communication exchange. There is no delay in conversations / communications with 3WTel VoIP. Leading telecom experts are projecting that 75% of world’s communications will be done on VoIP within next several years. What Kind of Equipment do I need? You will need a computer with internet access and an inexpensive microphone if your computer does not have one built in. Although most VoIP providers require high speed internet connections, 3WTel offers VoIP on dial-up, DSL, and broadband connections. How Can I Place Calls or Receive Calls? Basically, same way you would a regular phone, except on your PC. When you download a VoIP line on your computer, a phone usually appears on your screen. The computer phone acts like any other phone in that you can dial numbers on it from a pad, or click on a contact’s pre-programmed name, and press call button. You will then hear phone ringing to party you have called and can talk to them when they accept call, or leave a voicemail if they are not available. When receiving a call, phone will ring on your computer and you can click to accept call and talk, or let it ring (based on number of rings you have set up) and forward caller to your voicemail. What Kind of Features Does VoIP Have? Typically a VoIP has voicemail with audio capabilities, three-way calling, text messaging, and contacts list. Some VoIP’s even have webcam capabilities. In addition, there is usually a button to click that can indicate to others when you are available, unavailable, away, or off line. (3WTel has all these features and many more, including real time call duration, missed call indicator, network quality meter, call waiting, do not disturb, hold, mute, etc.) Who Can I Call?
