| Posted by inetbiz, 05-06-2002, 03:19 PM | | Okay so I've authored the price pages, setup phpmanager, got my merchant account. Now I need customers. What's the most effective cost solution to begin a marketing blitz and get the word out about who you are and what you offer in the hosting world?

We spend between $1,000 to $1,500 per month on advertising.
In terms of comming up with your own budget, do some homework.
Each industry has particular percentages of gross revenue to use as a guideline.
Mail order companies, for example, will typically spend 10% of projected annual revenues on sales and marketing.
Please note this budget is not always used for just adverting, but can include collateral and the like.
Thank you.
