Cool, No-Cost Offers for Small Business Owners

I’ve been receiving several exclusive offers specifically to help small business owners. And since the economy is tough right now, I thought I’d share these free offers with you, my fellow StartupNation entrepreneurs:

– Got an innovative, recession-busting marketing strategy that is helping your small business boost sales?

If so, you may want to enter PrintingForLess.com’s “Economic Stimulus Contest” at http://www.printingforless.com/Economic-Stimulus-Contest.html.

One winner will be chosen each month from October through December 2008 to win $1,000 in free printing (including brochures, newsletters, posters, postcards, business cards, calendars, presentation folders, greeting cards, and more).

“With the slow economy and the uncertain bailout plan, we’re taking action now to help small businesses overcome the slowdown,” says Andrew Field, PrintingForLess.com Founder and CEO. “When business marketers enter our Economic Stimulus Contest at http://tinyurl.com/3gbnc4, they have the chance to win $1,000 worth of printing services. Plus, they also help other small business owners nationwide by sharing their innovative marketing ideas.”

– Have a book you want to sell (or need a unique gift)?

Now through December 31, 2008, authors can post and sell their self-published books on www.jexbo.com at no cost. The first company to offer self-publishers a cost-effective marketplace to sell their books online, jexbo is waiving the 99¢ monthly posting-fee during the beta-testing phase.

“We are waiving the monthly fee until the end of 2008 to give authors the chance to post, market and sell their self-published books and provide feedback as we upgrade our new site,” says Jill Exler, jexbo Founder. “Authors only pay us 5% of whatever they sell. And as a special bonus, all new registrants will receive an exclusive, free eReport full of valuable publicity tips on how to sell books and build media awareness.”
