I am looking for some marketing ideas for a small furniture store, cheap! Anyone?

I need online furniture store...
Well, if you got some elbow grease here's what you do:

1). Email every friend, family member, co-worker, past co-worker, college pals, blah blah 3 times over the next month introducing your company.

2). Create some flyers on your computer. Be sure you offer a special or a freebie for coming into your store. Nobody gets excited about 10% off. Be sure to put your name and contact information at the bottom of the flyer.
Go to Office Depot run off 1000 copies and go distribute them to area businesses. Just walk in and drop them off.

3). Call area apartment communities and ask them if you can buy donuts and coffee for their next managers/leasing agents meeting in exchange for leaving some flyers.

So far you're out about $50.00

4). Prepare a press release and send it out via email to local media - tv, radio, newspaper, etc.

5). List a classified ad on eBay. Costs $9.95 for 30 days. You can list your contact information. It's a beautiful thing.

Under $100. Howz that?
