The Best Ways to Promote Your Business on Minti

angieh by angieh Talking Back(July 2007) (rank 60th)
The best ways to promote your business on Minti without going against Minti's rules or seeming illegitimate are the following ways, in no particular order:

* Writing advice about articles about being a working parent, your business (if it's parenting-related) without it being a blatant advertisement. You could also write about how working whilst having children has been a challenge and how to go around those obstacles as a Career Mum.

* Blogging about your every-day experiences as a parent who runs a business, and how you make things work in your day-to-day life. People may read it and may be more responsive to any posts where you mention your business.

* Pimp your Profile - in the "Me and My Family" section of your profile, you could put a little blurb that you own or work for a particular business, and put a link to it.

* Get involved in Minti. Talk about issues or events involving your children, post questions, answer questions and participate in fun groups such as FotoFriday so well all get to know you better. People may also get to know you better, and when they message you to get to know you better you could always mention them you work for or run a particular business.

* Join a group. There are groups such as Stay At Home Parents, Working From Home, Working Parents, and Success At Home which are for parents who have businesses or careers.

Thanks for the great advice. I mention my work a lot because that is where I learn/experience a lot of things with children. I just wanted to make sure I was doing the right thing, and you have reassured me.

Thanks for another helpful article

Thanks for this article Angie! I have been trying to think of ways to promote my home business here without people thinking I am pushing it on them (as I would hate to ever do that) or offending anyone. I will be using your ideas!

Fantastic advice, it is a great way for someone to promote their business - yet in doing so they are being an active, helpful participant.  I hope that people take advantage of doing this, as it is a very proactive way to bring attention to their business.
