1. Get creative with your ad copy. Instead of the same old boring ads, try something new and eye-catching. Be sure to include a call to action so people know what you want them to do.

2. Place your ads in high traffic areas. This could be online or offline, but make sure people will actually see your ad.

3. Make use of social media. Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram are all great platforms for promoting your business. And best of all, they're free!

[{"selector":"#anim-da456942-0d2b-441d-9b13-e9708d5a2f9b","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-910d1c86-0709-4e0a-bb62-11ef82df9a3b","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 151.90883%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

4. Network with other businesses. You can promote each other's products or services to extend your reach without spending any extra money.

5. Get involved in the community. Sponsoring local events or becoming active in charities is a great way to get your business name out there while also giving back to the community.

6. Use word of mouth marketing. If you have happy customers, ask them to spread the word about your business. This is one of the most effective (and cheapest!) forms of advertising there is.
