The more free publicity you can get, the wider your marketing message can reach and the greater your results are likely to be. The internet has made getting free publicity so much easier and today there are a number of ways that you can get free publicity.

Go Online for Free Publicity

The first step towards getting more free publicity is to take your marketing message online, if you have not done so already. There are a number of excellent free publicity resources available online such as social media, article directories, press release directories and other tools.

Create a Referral Program

Another great way to get more free publicity is to create a referral program. Although you may choose to give your referral partners a commission when they refer people to you, this will usually be after you have already made a sale and so the cost will come from the sale instead of paying upfront.

Form Joint Ventures

Joint ventures are another way of cutting your advertising costs by partnering with another business owner and using resources you already have to help gain you more publicity. You could, for example, exchange mailing lists, thus getting publicity from their mailing list and not needing to pay anything for it.

Can You Get a Free Press Release?

There are a number of places online that you can post free press releases about your company, but you may also be able to submit a press release to an offline newspaper for free and get greater exposure in this way. Press releases often open up many other opportunities for more publicity.

A pyramid never allows anyone coming in on the bottom to ever reach the top. Everyone pays some sort of association fee, works together under a team just to receives the same gift. In a pyramid, only those at the top profit. In a pyramid, your team members encourage you to attend meetings, conference calls, and annoy those you love to get the sale.

Giving private gifts to one another is an expression of kindness, which has been going on for centuries. Governments have allowed its practice for individuals to share their wealth with families, friends and others. It has been a means of helping and blessing others on special occasions or when the need arises.

Churches, civic groups and people from around the world have participated in organized gifting for over 300 years. Laws state that it is legal for individuals to exchange gifts. In the United States we have the Preamble, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights to protect a private citizen’s rights to earn, pay taxes and give away property and cash as long as it is done according to the laws and codes of this country.

The law states that one or more individuals can give a gift to another individual of up to $11,000 each per calendar year without any tax liability to either the giver or receiver of the gift, because the tax on the gift has already been paid.
