| Hi guys, I’ve been doing a website dealing in online printed coupons, on which merchants can upload their coupons to advertise themselves. Now I’m glad it was almost finished. To promote this website, I plan to do something to attract some business, that is, let some merchants upload coupons, almost free, except a little registration fee. So can anybody give me any ideas what should I do to promote my site to those business. I need many coupons upload to my website now. Any idea is appriciated! Cheers! |

| Why would a merchant pay a fee to put coupons on a site with no traffic? |
| ||||
| yes, that is the question! If I cannot collect coupons, I can't promote to consumers for they will never visit my site again if they see no coupons. So firstly, I need coupons. I can show their coupons for a fairly long time at the beginning. what do you think? |

| yes,that might be a goos idea. But what kind of method to let them know my site and get interested? I searched hundreds of emails of different business, such as gym,restaurant,hairdresser, but received no reply. I'm not good at online marketing/ promotion. thanks for your suggestions! |

| You sent them emails? Are you mad? |

| lol |

| It's ok to email businesses I think (not ethically) I had a look at the site and put together some info (from the boards.ie thread) If I manage to get some time this week, I'll jot down a few pointers for you, as it's an interesting idea, but the fact that you need suppliers is integral to the sites function.
