When you go to a local event or chamber function, its typical you walk away with a handful of business cards from other professionals.  It's not unusual to go back to your office and give these new contacts a follow up call, but that's the old way of doing things!  Take a look at these ways of utilizing those business cards.

I used to be a huge fan of constant contact (if you don't know what constant contact is, it's an email marketing service).  Actually, I still use constant contact for some clients and it works great.  However, I'm starting to realize that Feedburner can be a great tool to market your business via email AND blog for FREE.  That's right, it doesn't cost you a dime while having most of the tools that email marketing companies include for no extra charge. 

Feedburner also allows users to subscribe to your blog feed via email or RSS.  So let's say your subscriber doesn't want to get an email, they can just subscribe to your feed by adding it to their RSS reader.  I always recommend that businesses have a blog to update their customers when they have promotions, events, changes etc...  What better way to automatically send them an email everytime you update your blog?

I would like to take a second to talk about CHANGE.  Change is what develops our lives and our existence on this planet.  If you oppose change, you oppose progress.  Anyone who opposes progress will limit their chances at succeeding in this lifetime.  Take your business and think back when you first started.  How many changes have you made in order to succeed?  My guess is that you had to make many in order to be where you're at today.
