It will help if you spend a lot of money on advertising and relationship marketing but the good news is that interactive platforms as social media, old good forums, blogging, etc. can actually have the same or stronger effect than advertising. The rule all the way through is the same: be professional and engage your publics. Today you do have the opportunity to run a completely online business which is great but has its weaknesses varying from country to country and from branch to branch.

Do not forget the rule: no matter what you do and how you do it, communicate professionalism. Next issue comes with more pages, refined theory and tutorials going deep into details.
