Hey everybody I need your help, I recently open a new business and I have no clue how to start my business to make money, please give me some advises, if you know any cool websites where I can publish my ad, or even how can I make my own site like for instance my business name is AKOS so if I can get my own site like www.akos.com anybody know how.
I don't know what you already have in place, but you definitely need a logo, and you should probably come up with a tagline. AKOS isn't a very descriptive name, so a tagline will be a way to let people know what your business does.
Once you have that stuff, you can start advertising. I don't know what you've done in terms of market research, but you have to advertise to your target market. Word of mouth and fliers are the cheapest way to do it, but if you can afford newspaper ads or billboards, go for it.
And a website is definitely helpful. It's hard to design one on your own, so you might want to look into something like freewebs.com if you can't hire a professional (which can be pricey)--you can put a site together without all the details you need when starting from scratch, and I'm pretty sure you can pay to get the URL to be akos.com rather than freewebs.com/akos. I took an interactive media class where I learned how to design websites, and the book we used was pretty good, and it also helps you with things like logos. It's called Don't Make Me Think by Steve Krug. You might want to get a Marketing book too--I can't remember the names of any of the books I used in high school, but I think any text book should be really helpful.
Hmm, not sure, but do you know anything about PR? If not, do you have someone who does? Not knowing what your business is, outside of going to a professional, I would make flyers then go to maybe the Y, gym's, apartment complexes, etc. I still would check out the professional websites and even go to your local community colleges, especially those that train computer skills. Good Luck with AKOS?
if you want ti done to look good I would go to a professional and have them design your website. We have a place here that works on computers and makes websites for people. There is [probably a place like that where you can go. You can advertise locally in your town by putting on flyers on community bulletin boards. You can do some advertising through google after you get a website. But I would definitly go to a professional to get it done, especially since it doesn't sound like you really know how to. You can tell a pro exactly what you want and they will do it. This will make your site more appealing. and you;ve got to spend money to make money. :)
