    That is a long list! I’ve done most of these that are virtual. It’s the offline, local marketing that I haven’t done. Thanks for writing them all out.

    I am very social in the blogging world and I think that helps a tremendous amount when it comes to traffic. I also belong to lots of FB groups – and everyone is so very supportive in those!
