You don't need to be a marketing GURU or buy a bunch of courses that simply by implementing these following tips you will see results.
1.Find out 3 blogs that your current client base would read and comment. Leave comments of value on 3 different posts. It gets you integrated into that bloggers community. This is not selling or self promotion. This is getting in front of those readers as someone of value. Always be positive and uplifting... don't disagree with with the blogger or be the antagonist. If you do this right the blogger will take notice.
2. This is proven the #1 reason why people leave your business is that your customer does not feel that you care for them. For every month you do not have contact with a client or prospect you loose approximately 10 percent of your influence. If you have business cards from a year ago you might as well throw them away as you have no influence. Start a process or get a process in place... Thank you cards is an excellent way to put a piece of mail in their mailbox. Go buy some thank you cards...
3. Go to your data base and print off list of names and phone numbers and carry that list and text 10 people a day... texting just checking in with them this is not about selling them this is about contacting them
For every month that we don't do that we will eventually loose them get a client list with our clients or prospects...
4. This is the one that is going to take the most time invested but also the highest result.. This is assuming if you have a blog post or website.

There is a simple formula Picture Video Text Contact Form ... If you can do a video with this person or do a video with the person or talking about that person... and put a call to action where they can share this blog..
