I have also found that Google Adwordsis very ineffective and costly.I would continue with that path but lower your cost per hit to about .50.
There are city business journals that work well for all sizes of businesses. I would advertise in the cities you want to hit on.
Also, this forum, I would post an add here and on citibank's small business forum.
Work with a direct marketing company to target your audience and get statisicalfeedback. I represent just that sort of company.
Call me to discuss and I will put in direct contact. My number is 856-437-6277.

You will be limited to reaching one region. For $150 you can reach 3-4 regions on the internet and you can test your marketing strategy. For instance, you have to physically move the yard signs at intersections to see how your customers react to certain campaigns. With the internet, you can reach multiple countries, mulitple techniques, 24-hours a day. With your idea, you are much more limited.

Easy Lube,
That is a great idea. I made business cards using a family friends equipment. They turned out pretty good. I'm going to start by handing these out, post on local corkboards and leaving in the windows of automobiles with business logos displayed. Thank you for the input.

Drew,

I did some thinking. Before you spend any money on paid for services. Try listing your business on Google Maps. It is free and all you have to do is put your companies info in, operating hours, phone number. The google will call you will an automated service and you will put in the code they give to you on the webpage.

That in my opinion would be the best case scenario for you.

Another thing I would try is those magnetic signs on the side of your car/van. Those reach more people than yards signs but are cheaper than paying for a strictly internet marketing campaign. I look at those signs all the time when I am parked at a stop light waiting for a green light. You can do all those yourself and won't have to pay anyone but the company that makes those magnetic signs for the side of the car.

Regards,

Brandon
