Hi Rob: My experience with newspaper ads not great, I got enough work to pay for the ads but not alot more than that. The problem with Yellow pages is that people looking there (in general) have no criteria to go by other than price so if your not the cheapest in town you won't get the work. Referral work is the best. The bigger your customer base, the more referrals you'll get and the best way to develop a large customer base ASAP is to work for a dealer. You could also try a direct mailing to everyone in the University directory, letting them know of your services and maybe offering a initial discount of some sort to all University affilates. Good luck, Rob Edwardsen
