I do have several blogs/websites with real domain names but I also have some with free blogspot.com addresses. Is it just because the domain name makes you look more professional? I have found that it doesn't matter if I have a real domain or free one as far as search engine results because as long as I am writing properly on my sites the search engines pick me up either way.

While most of my clients are online, a way to do this is to hand them out at chamber of commerce and other types of networking meetings if you don't want to go the mail route. Now I'm off to check out your How to Make My Business Grow report. @Henry: great idea about following up offline.

I stumbled accross this site which seems very informative with great content. I help UK small business owners utlise effective marketing to grow their businesses (not a plug). Free reports are an absolutely integral part of that in nearly all cases. From beauty salons to real estate, home study courses, electronics, pharmaceuticals, beds, shoes, dentists, doctors, chiropractors, cosmetic surgeons, web designers and in pretty much every industry. As part of a full marketing system they are as you say invaluable. 2 very simple free reports I wrote in a matter of hours have been worth over $300k to me in the past year or so -- hands free -- no work. Had I had to use manual labour to position myself to all those clients and get them to the point of being ready to buy (or almost), not only would I have one heck of a sore throat but my earnings per hour would have been driven into the floor. Anyone serious about maximising their time should take time to master this very effective and lucrative skill. NOTE: I advise NOT giving away TOO much. Tell people WHAT to do but don't tell them HOW to do it... Your knowledge and skills are VERY valuable. You should be paid for value... And you're welcome to grab some one of my free reports here. <a href="http://www.howtomakemybusinessgrow.com/" rel="nofollow">How to Make My Business Grow</a> Ah, one last thing. If you're generating demand online be sure to integrate OFFLINE follow up. Sending your report hard copy is a very WISE move (as long as you have a solid follow up system). Have a great day, Henry Baker. Great article.
