Advertising

Where do you all advertise??

I am in need of school runds/before, after school care/holiday care.

I have seen a few people are using facebook, I don't know whether I think that is a good or bad idea?

i havent needed to advertise as word of mouth speaks volumes but if i did id use my local surestart centre, shop window & school entrance pin board

i do have an oversized postcard advertisment in my front, back & car window :cool:

im on my local CIS and iv had plenty of calls from them....& its free :)

ive got a fleece jacket with registered childminder tastefully printed on it ive also got a spare wheel cover on my landy with my advert on it doing the school run with those usually does the trick and generally letting people know your about , show your face at sure start centres etc

I did leaflet drops locally, put some up in local shop near school. I have my website, I registered on google maps, thompsons directory, yell.com, childcare.co.uk, netmums.com. I also have sweatshirts and t-shirts with our logo on and also web address strips on my cardoors!:clapping:

am almost full - so it must be working:thumbsup:
