The best way to market for consultants is to do it on a regular basis. This is not rocket science, it is, however, a matter of being consistent and making the marketing efforts a habit.

Why Choose Something Like an Adhesive Screen Cleaner?

The key word here is “useful.” It’s not going to benefit your business very much if you give away something that your customers don’t need, or that they already have a lot of. Even though pens are popular giveaway items, they’re not always appreciated by everyone.

Not only is it useful in that everyone appreciates having a clean cell phone screen, but it’s unique too. An adhesive screen cleaner is a giveaway your customers will love, and they’ll remember it too, because chances are, they don’t have one. Yours will be the first one they ever …
