    Wherever you develop the most skills thru practice, is the best, effective way for you.

    I honed my writing skills; blogging, guest blogging and blog commenting worked for me as a newer and established business person. But you need practice - ESPECIALLY as a newbie - to see success.

    You have to go where your ideal prospects are "hanging out" and reach out to them there.

    Is it forums? Is it social media? Direct mail?

    Hard to give specific advice without knowing exactly your target market.

    It really depends on the type of business. Not all advertising channels work for all types of business models. For the most part if you have the budget for it, your safest bet would usually search PPC, because then you know prospects are actually looking for the service or product you are offering

    If the business is online, i like to start off with PPC (Google Ads & Bing Ads & Facebook Ads) - just to see if a market exists for it, and to get a general sense of an idea of how much my cost per lead and cost per click would be. This information would be useful for me whenever i run ads on websites across the internet.

    I suppose it depends on the type of business you're looking to market. Personally, I've seen a lot of success in social media and word of mouth. But then again, that's how I have built my brand over the years. Everyone's mileage will vary.

    The best way to advertise for a business is through social media such as Facebook, Instagram, Youtube to promote your brand, website or blog for example

    There is so much organic traffic through social media and you also focus on facebook and google ads if you need people to check out your website.

    Hopefully this helps you !

      While building an email list is a good idea, it is not advertising. You advertise to build your list. The traffic you get from your list has already responded to your ads at least once.

    The best and most effective way for a new business to advertise is through networking events in YOUR niche.

    Events like those you see in Meetup.

    In case you and other readers wonder what Meetup is, you can do a Google search for it.

    But if you are too busy, let me explain briefly.

    Meetup is a social media platform like Facebook.

    The ONLY difference is people don't just join to interact with one another online like Facebook.

    They are there to form or join groups within their interest or problems they faced.

    To get to know one another.

    However a friendly warning advice here.

    Do NOT expect to make a lot of $ instantly though I can still be wrong if you happened to meet someone who is very interested in your business offers and has plenty of disposable cash to invest.

    For getting to know and build relationships with people take time, effort and bit of sacrifice on your part.

    Like how you get to know your friends, boy/girlfriend, spouse and even children.

    If you want a FASTER way to earn, paid ads - in particular FB ads - IS the way forward.

    With as little as $3 USD each day, you can target your audience according to their location and interests before creating and letting your ad run for at least 1 month.

    In order to see any result.

    It solely depends on what type of business you have. If you are doing business online and looking to target customers from around the world. Then Internet marketing is best for you. Just start with doing Search Engine Optimization (SEO), Social Media Optimization (SMO) of your website and you will see the result. You can also use PPC (Pay Per Click), if you want quick result.

    Now if you are looking to target customers locally, then offline advertising is best for you. You can print flyers, business cards, print ads on newspapers or use promotional product as giveaway to increase your brand awareness among your targetted audience. If you are gonna use promotional products for advertising then you can purchase from top wholesale suppliers. They will provide you with various options of trendy and useful product and you can also imprint your brand logo or message on these product.

    Well, it depends on what business are you in. There's a lot of place you can advertise in. For B2B businesses, place like Linkedin, Google Adwords, or even Craigslist could be your choice. For B2C, Youtube, Facebook, Instagram is a good platform to advertise with.

    My suggestion is to go with a platform at a time. Don't try to do all of this simultaneously. Mater one traffic source before you move on to other sources. And test with a small budget first, before you put all of your money into it.

    Radio Advertising is my suggestion for the best and most effective way for a new business to advertise be it online or offline. Radio reaches something like 90% more people compared to all forms of advertising.

    WebFX conducted case studies of different websites in different niches that advertised on the radio. The short of the studies reflected an 80% increase of website traffic.

    All advertising methods have their pluses and minuses. Radio advertising is very expensive for the majority of new small businesses. The location (reach) that you advertise determines the cost of the ad. Typically speaking a one or two minute ad can cost a few hundred dollars in small cities up to a few thousand dollars in large cities. Also consider the majority of people hear the ads when driving. Cities where the main mode of transportation are taxis are the least desirable reach criteria.

    In a nutshell, for every 1K adspend the return is an average 6K. Of course that figure is subjective because everything else must be optimal.

    There is only one type of advertising ANY business should use: DIRECT RESPONSE. This is when you advertise to get a person to do something specific, such as call a toll-free number, visit your website or come to your store.

    You can do direct response advertising online or offline. Personally, I like direct mail the most, because you can target your audience and get something in their HANDS.

    Online advertising works, but it has less stickability and a shorter shelf-life. Just my two cents.

    You didn't say what kind of business. Many people think that right off the bat they need a website. Maybe, maybe not. Print advertising and offering services on the big free site can be as effective as anything else and cheaper by a long shot. A lot depends on your target audience and who you've got doing the actual promotion.

    takes hard work, but once you get the flow and traffic it can be incredible.... good leads, and high conversions....

    again I did not say it will happen fast, just keep consistant, that will do wonders for your business.

    And always link back to a squeeze or lead capture page. Get the lead first.

    It is really depend on the type of the business. so I think first you have to specify the type of business.

    In common most powerful way to advertise is word of mouth, you have to keep the customer reputation.

    Social media marketing is also a cheap and powerful way nowadays......

    It depends on what mode you want to take it.
    If its offline then banner , holdings , vehicle advertising etc.
    If online then search related communities and do some paid promotions there.
    Social media is another part if you wanna go into it.
