Not knowing anything about you or even where you are.......I&amp;#39;d offer several ideas. 1) do a google for vicki lareau, she has published a book on being in the bead biz. She may have a web site with info also. 2) if you have a decent library, they may have some business plan or business startup books that you can check out, these will include information on marketing. 3) if you happen to be in a community with a Small Business Development Center, take advantage of them! They are a free service that you can take advantage of for advice, often have libraries specifically fill with books on how to start a business which will include how to market you new biz. Some are connected with universities and colleges, some are independent. Some offer classes for which there may be a charge.
