How do I build a client base? Any ideas?

by juscelinoacevedo . Updated 21 years ago

Hello All,

To make a long story short, I currenty have a decent job that pays okay with a nice title of Assistant Director, which has taken me 5 years to reach. However, due to the fact that the company I work for is not great when it comes to compensation I decided to start my own business (http://www.jma-tech.com).

Here’s the problem, I have no clue as to what to do to build a client base. Another fact that does not help is that I really do not have much money to put towards the business because we all have bills to pay at home. As you can safely assume, noone know about my company and would probably not believe that I can actually help them, because I have no references.

Can anyone suggest ANYTHING that would be helpful in letting small businesses in my target area know that I know what I’m doing and can help them without spending money that I do not have? I know it sounds like I’m being cheap, but it’s just the reality of my situation. Thanks in advance…

(Sorry, I thought it was going to be a short story…)
