It will communicate a message that makes someone reach out, because of the value it adds and the problem it solves. Don’t take on your marketing efforts alone. A professional in the marketing field should have a different, fresh perspective on what you’re trying to achieve and they should be more than someone who just creates pretty graphics. They should be responsible for executing your marketing strategy from top to bottom with results that can be measured and then duplicated. Instead of marketing to everyone, target by location, age, income, and interests - narrow your target market and advertise directly to them. The more competition there is in your market, the more important it is to narrow your focus.
