Have a good and friendly marketing staff then give them samples to give to people.  This way they will learn about the product and if they like it they will order for more. Again as per the rule of the particular country, you may have to do a clinical test with qualified medical docotors and from this point you can market your product ..but if only it works well.  What products are these you have?

Okay well, there is a book that I have recently read to get ideas for promoting my own webshop (I go live in June 2006).  It's called "Marketing without Megabucks" by Shel Horowitz. I got my copy on Amazon.com for 4 dollars.  I have put a link to the book as well as his frugal marketing website.  Sift through his archives as well, tons of great ideas for free and low cost marketing.\n\nA marketing method that "DirtBag" clothing used, they called on Independant Record Labels and offered to let bands wear their gear (IF they wore it on stage) for free (now the simply give a huge discount), but it worked.  And all of the fans of these bands of curse simply HAD to have what they were wearing :)\n(the 1st link is of an article about how they advertised when they first started out)\n\nYou should try to get local coverage as well, if you get involved with a charity and create a one page press release you may be able to get local televison, print and radio stations to give you free coverage with a Human Interest Story.  Call and get the names of the assignment editors at the TV stations (they make the decision on what stories get coverage)  You can simpy donate say 5% of sales for 6 months to a local children's hospital or donate some of your items for a local auction benefiting a charity.\n\nVisit the "Business Owners Idea Cafe" listed below, awesome place for home and small business owners.  And if you visit forums and give advice remember to put a link to your website under your name as your signature.\n\nI wish you the best

I think the best way to start is to first determine what your product or service is.  once you have determined this, find out who your target market is.  What type of people will purchase this prodct or service.  Once you have figured this out you must get in front of those people by provding advertising and banners on other websites that people that fit your target market will hit.  One of the most important things about an eBusiness is having a website that does not look like it's home grown.  It should be professional and easy to use.  I worked with a company that specializes in startup companies called ScienStream.  They might be able to help you out, you can check out their website at www.scienstream.com/index.php

The best way to move into new markets to find markets that are adjacent to the market you are already in. Don't try to stretch to completely new markets - it is too expensive. \n\nFind customers within your existing business who fit in both your current and adjacent markets and ask them how they learn about new products/services in their other market (what they read, what sites to they visit, what keywords to they use on Google, etc).  All this will help you find sources of media that best target these buyers.\n\nThen I would try to get PR before advertising. It is often less expensive and more effective.  If you have never used PR (Public relations) before, I have a suggestion. My friend opened up a business in a new market. To get local newspaper coverage, he went to the newspaper and asked which local PR specialists the newspaper liked to work with. Then he hired their recommendation to get him ink in the local paper. It worked like a charm.

Try a few of these methods and watch your sales soar! \n1.   Launch a Web site. Web sites provide your company with worldwide exposure and give your customers convenient access to your services and products.  \n  \n2.   Host a grand opening or open house. Invite local business owners and residents from surrounding neighborhoods. Provide refreshments, drawings for door prizes, free merchandise samples, and have plenty of business cards and company brochures on hand.  \n  \n3.   Monitor the quality of your services and products constantly. Satisfied customers who spread the word about your business are the best source of new customers. Pay attention to pricing, customer service, product availability and prompt delivery.  \n  \n4.   Explore various types of traditional advertising methods such as classified ads, yellow page ads, television and radio spots, and display ads in magazines and on other Web sites. Go with what meets your budget and best reaches your target group.  \n  \n5.   Support a local charity by sponsoring a fundraising event such as a food drive, toy drive or walkathon. Arrange for a formal presentation of your donation with cameras at the ready and try to get a local newspaper to publish the photograph.  \n  \n6.   Distribute fliers and business cards door to door, place them under car windshield wipers and tack them to local apartment, college and community center bulletin boards.  \n  \n7.   Maintain a visible presence within your industry. Participate in trade shows, attend community events and offer to speak on your area of expertise at seminars.

One good way is to print out flyers and take them to potential clients where they work and/or live.  Identify exactly what you have to offer and perhaps even provide a discount for the first cleaning.\n\nIt works for many businesses.

Who will be your customer and where do you find them? Once you have the answers to those questions you will be able to effectively (successfully, and at a lower cost) advertise to them.\n\nThen armed with the information, come back and re-ask the question. You may find some useful answers. Until then they will all be guesses. I don't like spending my money on guesses.

The best way is to use marketing strategies that can reach this audience directly instead of using shotgun approach. This is a very specific market, and needs specific ways to reach them. Here are examples:\n\n1. Direct mail. It is cost effective easier to target this audience through direct mail pieces rather than an ad for example at Washington Post\n\n2. Advertise in trade associations catering to animal veterinarians. These publications are what they will read so your products need to be seen in these publications\n\n3. Find out what websites they visit and you can run some text sponsorship or banner ad campaigns. Be careful to measure your ROI.\n\n4. Be visible in trade shows catering to this market. You need to be there.

There are many ways to go about doing what you are planning. If you are thinking about selling your product at fairs, shows and or events, you might want to go and talk to all the people that are selling their baked goods at these events.\n\nThere is a reasonalbe book out about craft business, published by the self council publisher, available at most decent book stores.\n\nalso the BC government has a very good small business web site , I believe it is at www.smallbusinessbc.ca.\n\nWe started a small business from our basement, not baked goods and found that it is important to keep it simple, to document everything so that you can repeat everything you do. and to not worry about govenrment to too much, and take action as quickly as you can to keep the momentum going.\n\nKeep in mind that in all business, it is most important to figure out who you are going to sell to and to have a "stupid proof" system to prospect for current and new business for ever. Because the best product in the world, will not sell unless you consistantly target and approach the marketplace for your buyers.\n\nBooks for that are things like the E-Myth by Michael Gerber,  and Guerrila Marketing series Jay Conrad Levinson.\n\nGood Luck and send me a cake if any of my suggestions are of benefit to you.
