Many businesses nowadays resort to marketing online to spread the news about their businesses. Whether it's online businesses or regular businesses, this is the trend that many people speak to. However, you need to remember that you need to cater for those people who don't spend their time online.

Yes.. there are still many out there who don't go online. Just take my husband, for example. So what do you do when you don't have enough cash or capital to market your brand for commercials or highway billboards?

So if you've got shipping involved in your business, packaging is most important. Put your brands on your packaging. Show support to "going green" and forgo the plastic. Use custom cardboard boxes instead.

Boxes big or small make great marketing.. people need them all the time. For storage, for packing, for moving..

I'm planning to start a business in the future and you can bet that this is definitely one of MY marketing strategies!
