Help getting clients

[jnmhorn]

Hi,
I just launched my business, Limoshost.com two days ago and I have only been able to get one paying customer and I need at least 5 to 6 more to break even this month. I am wondering what I can do to get 5 more customers in about a week and a half. I was thinking about a affiliate program, but I don't know where to get the software to get this.


Thanks,

Jacob

Jacob,

Have you thought this out? Launching a business towards the end of the month and then scrambling to find client to cover costs isnt the best way to start out.

Do a search here and the other hosting, business and marketing sites around. I would suggest look localy. The only way to find clients that fast as you need them would be to go to family and friends.

Hi,
Thanks for the advice. I was originally going to launch it on December 5th, the beginning of the month, but then my designer was not done finishing the site. I am still certain that I am able to get 5 more customers by the month's end. I was thinking about some Craigslist ad or something like that.


Thanks.

Jacob

The only problem opening this month is that people are out shopping for christmas, so new client signups are kinda low this month,

I whould suggest that you start in the 1st day in january :)

Yes, this month has not been too hot for signups. :(

Craigslist and free classifieds at other websites have worked wonders for us, so I suggest going that route - it's free, so you have nothing to lose anyway.

I was thinking about a affiliate program, but I don't know where to get the software to get this.Ultimate affiliate from GroundBreak.com and idevaffiliate from idevdirect.com are popular among hosts. There are of course other options out there. Maybe hotscripts.com can help you find them, some maybe completely free.

host directories and banner spots :bowdown:

Do you have any suggestions on which directories?
