  3. Hey Irfan, your ideas are good and as far my knowledge is, Asian people are good in technical field. Your knowledge is good, these marketing strategies are essential when you are new in the business and need a hike to reach on top, to maximize your popularity in public. But for more effective and comparatively cheap service is also there that a business can use. It is plastic banner publicity, where in online publicity banners are used and you need to continuously pay for them, but once you have the plastic banner printed, you can use it for many years and also these are weather proof. Adding it to your publicity will help you grow you business more quickly.
