Who Knows You Run a Business?

I have several friends who run small businesses, and have done what I can to help them with SEO and marketing, but I can only help so much. I've seen them get so discouraged and frustrated when it comes to marketing themselves, getting into business directories, and being found by clients. I've found a directory at www.salesmedium.com that takes out a lot of guess work in this regard. Not only do they list your business in their directory, but you get industry-targeted advertising, and you're backed up by an actual sales rep who negotiates with users and consumers to drive them to you. The membership plans are really reasonably priced for all the support and promotion you receive. If you run a business, you might want to check it out. After all, what's the point of running a business if nobody knows about you?
