Press Release Summary = In the February 2006 issue of Accent, Evy Williams of the
Accent News Group explains that marketing doesn’t have to be expensive to reach the
right markets, but it does need to be creative.

Press Release Body = Choosing effective marketing techniques on a tight budget is a
challenge for any small business. In “Grow Your Business with Creative Marketing”
(available at http://www.EmphasisOnSuccess.com), Accent editor Evy Williams offers
some real-world advice about reaching potential customers that won’t break the bank.
Based on her personal experience, Williams advocates inventive, inexpensive
strategies like networking and getting involved with industry organizations as the
best ways to get clients.

“I can’t stress enough how important it is to continuously market your services.
Even if you have enough work right now, what about the future? What about growth? We
need to address the future needs of our businesses as well,” notes Williams, owner
of Brochures by Design.com (http://www.BrochuresByDesign.com), a virtual firm
specializing in professional writing services, desktop publishing and multimedia
presentations. “Be creative when marketing your business. Step outside your comfort
zone to do something a little different. I know it’s worked for me.”

Marketing is the focus of Accent’s entire February 2006 edition. Readers will also
find articles on:

• Mastering search engine optimization
• Generating buzz on your business
• Developing a brand identity that makes your business stand out
• Common marketing mistakes you don’t want to make

Readers can check out the current issue at http://www.EmphasisOnSuccess.com as well
as review previous editions. They may also subscribe to Accent so the next issue
arrives directly in their inboxes.

In March the Accent news team will explore communications. Articles will cover such
topics as e-mail etiquette, VoIP, broadband wireless and online message boards for
virtual professionals.

Started in summer 2005, Accent delivers information, resources and solutions that
enable virtual professionals and small business owners to excel in today’s
marketplace. The e-zine was developed by the Accent News Group, a network of virtual
entrepreneurs that volunteers its expertise to help other business owners succeed.
Because members want to be an independent, informed voice for small business, the
Accent News Group is not affiliated with any company or organization.
