5. Create a Website: If you don't already have a website for your company, this is the time to have one designed even if it is just a contact page. The fact is that more and more people have access to the internet and they are always searching for information. No matter what your budget may be, you can have a website.

In exchange for visitors receiving your free information ask they to provide their name and email address. This will give you the opportunity to send them information about your products and services.
7. Write articles based on the content in your book. Take an extra step in establishing yourself as an expert by writing articles. Articles don't have to be long they just have to be informative. Make sure to include short byline so that readers can find you and your company.
