Anyone? Anyone?
Has anyone really figured out the key to successful online marketing without spending a bundle? It is not an easy feat, let me tell you. The tough thing is that consumers want items for low cost. In order for a company to let consumers know their item (product or service) is out there, they need to spend lots of dollars. Now, you just can't be profitable if you spend all of your money telling the word about your stuff only to give it away. None of us are gozillionaires like Forrest Gump (who now cuts grass for free), so we conduct business to make money to pay bills and put food in our faces. This whole vicious cycle is really starting to make my head spin. We have a responsibility to our consumers to be cost effective, but more importantly we need to get the word out about what it is we are doing. In addition, we are spending time, effort and money to improve upon what we are doing with the goal of being as accommodating to all of our consumers as possible.
I guess I need to slow down and relax a little since it hasn't even been a full month from our initial launch. Things will come with time...
Until then, do me a favor...tell your family, neighbors, friends, co-workers (even the ones you don't like talking to...maybe they'll be your friend once you tell them about this), people on the street and talk to the TV about gorage.com. Why, you ask? Because we believe in it and we think the world needs to know about it. That and raising an advertising budget is never easy. Thank you for your support!!

You might try writing articles. There are a ton of sites that look for content to publish. Maybe a few on "How to make money on the internet" or "Spring cleaning in June" or something like that offering advice on how to make some extra cash. Then in your tagline put links to gorage.com and explain how it differs from other online auction houses.
(Thanks for the comment, btw, I'm an avid reader of CTM too!)
Man, you've always got the angles covered. Great ideas!! I'll have to give them a shot.
