"We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit." Aristotle

Many people will tell you that marketing your website costs a lot of money. On the other hand, there are those that tell you one should never spend any money on Internet advertising at all.

Those of you that have read 1,001 Killer Internet Marketing Tactics know which school I support:

The one that works! And which "one" that is depends highly on your situation.

That is, there is some truth to both schools of thought. At Aesop we tend to focus on things that will have little or no initial investment, but there are times when we do spend money on advertising, of course.

However, when I create a marketing plan for a company it always includes a list of *free* marketing tasks. Why? Well, the
majority of these free advertising tasks take very little effort on your part -- some of them can even deliver outstanding results.

You'd be crazy not to take advantage of a free chance to improve your business.

So, I'm going to give you an action plan here that will take only a few minutes to implement each day and will require absolutely no cash investment.

a. Take 30 minutes every Monday to seek out and find a new FREE advertising opportunity on the web. There are literally thousands available. Start compiling a list now and before you know it you'll have a huge arsenal available in no time.

Here are a few to get you started:

b. Take 10 minutes every day to use one of these free tools.

After you have your bag of tricks built up in a few weeks, it will be fun every day to decide which of your free marketing tools you will use.

10 minutes a day -- make a commitment to yourself right now. Say aloud, "I will do this every single day."

Chances are, you are probably spending zero minutes a day to promote your site. A few of you out there go crazy promoting yourselves every single day, and I applaud you. But how much time do the rest of you really spend taking advantage of *free* promotional opportunities?

I believe it's very important to use free oportunities for several reasons:

- It keeps you abreast of what is available on the net for free. Chances are you are paying for something right now which can be had for free.

- It will give a boost to your promotion efforts without boosting
your budget. Those of you out there fighting an uphill cash-flow battle know just how important that is.

- It gets you into a daily habit that will have dramatic long-term effects on your bottom line.

So, take a few minutes right now to get started:

1. First, mark the time to do this off on your calendar. Make this a habit.

2. Start out today. Take 10 minutes when you are done reading this to use the Award Submitter. It's easy, it's free, and it can get you some much needed exposure. Why not do it *now*? Here's the link again:
