A good Small Business Marketing Strategy.

“Cast a Wide Net to Attract Good Employees”.

One of the great challenges for small business is to recruit good workers.

Big companies offer big salaries and attractive benefits.

But it's essential to focus on hiring the best people from the very beginning because hiring mistakes are costly.

Here are some low cost ways to recruit good workers.

•Tell your customers and suppliers that you're hiring. They know your business and can tell the kind of people they would like to deal with.

•Call other small business owners and ask if they've interviewed any good people they haven't hired.

This isn't as strange as it sounds. Many times people wish they could hire someone but they didn't have the budget or the timing wasn't right.

Consider hiring older or younger workers.

Students and retired people are a tremendous resource for small business.

Contact a business school, community college, or even a high school to find a competent student.

Students have all sorts of talents and eager for real world experience.

Retired managers and executives not only have tremendous experience and knowledge, but are often willing to work at a lower rate of pay.
