The number two technique is hosting seminars. You can choose to host your own or partner with other professionals or niche technology providers.

Bottom Line on Marketing Techniques
Marketing techniques have a distinct hierarchy. Your most highly concentrated technique should always be relationship marketing. Follow that with hosting seminars and direct mail. The remainder of the techniques you should be considering are those that fall into the miscellaneous category. Leave the miscellaneous technique budget small but consider various ideas and try them out - you never know what might catch on.
