Hey all,

I've been in the biz for about 6 months now, no complaints, other than that I wouldn't mind seeing more new faces walk into my restauarant. I almost feel as if my advertising efforts to "get my name out there" is slowing down tremendously. Reluctant as I originally was, I ventured on to the web, interested to see what I couldnt find. I found a website called tonightlive.com that was offering something that fit my budget, and it looked like it had some potential to help extend my efforts to get that name out there. What have some of your experiences with the interent been? good? bad? What i especially liked is that they told me only people "in my area" would be finding me, so I guess when i thought i had touched every local medium here in Florida, i was wrong? I would appreciate any feedback from some of you who have been around the block and back, since I have not - yet, to see if this sounds like the right road to now go down.

Hi im new on this forum just kinda learning. I have considered using them but im in the same boat as you, i can say i have used Welcome to Primedia Marketing. and they have sent over to my bakery tons of new visitors every week and our sales have basically tripled, hope that helps.

Something I tried for my Catering business was Free Advertising such as Merchant Circle and Classified also Craigslist many locals use the Free websites to search & I've gotten results using all 3 in getting new business for my Taco Catering Business. Stick to our local area that way people can visit you if they really want to try your first. Good Luck!
