If someone asks a small business owner, are you struggling to market your small business effectively? Do you lack the time and resources to run an effective ad campaign? Are you losing your share of business to large chains and corporations who fail to match your standard of quality service? Do you have scanty financial resources but a capital of satisfied customers?

Then the majority of business owners answer "Yes" to all of these questions. Recently released data from US Census bureau mentions that there are more than 18 million self-employed individuals, and almost all of them (~16 million) have individual proprietorships. Further, most of these individuals work only part time on the small business. When it comes to marketing, small business owners often do not have time or resources to run an effective campaign.
