Answer 2

Hello,

Great post.  The most important part of business is advertising.  This makes or breaks a business.  Some of the best ways to advertise I've found are:

1.  Offline promoting (business cards, flyers, newspaper and other print advertising).

2.  Online promoting (buying banner ads, forum posts, email auto replies).

The best method that's worked for me so far is handing out business cards.  I don't do this in the usual way.... I buy them in bulk from a place online (they give the cards for free, I just  paid shipping and handling...they also give a really nice free business card holder, it looks impressive).  They're really high quality.  I just put all of the info about my business on the cards, and I hand them out on cars at bus stations, malls, etc.  It's worked out really, really well for me, and it's completely inexpensive =)

Good Luck with your business!

Answer 5

I don't know what you mean by ".01 each". Amazon charges a "per transaction fee" of 99 cents for each item you sell, plus a "closing fee" based on what the item is (it's currently $1.35 for books), if that's what you're asking.
