If you have not got any good organic postion in the search engines try pay per click advertising such as google adwords.

Sorry, this may or may not be helpful but other than on the internet, how about a small ad in the dailies? I visited a few websites mentioned in Women's mags.

Put yourself out there.!!

Who is your target Client.? If businesses then start calling round all the local companies maybe with some sort of good promotional offer.

If individuals then adverts in local papers, leaflets, etc...

Look, if you're going to run a business, there's absolutely no point in opening your 'shop' and hoping people will flock to you !!!! You've got to go out and create busniess, make it happen and if you're asking us how you should get clients, then you really need to think whether you have the acumen to be doing this in the first place ?

If you really want to make it a go, get yourself busy finding clients first and then provide them your services.....

Cruel to be kind but I totally agree.!

It's a hrad world out there and you need to know what you're doing, believe me. If you spend £1000s getting going to have no clients at all, you could lose everything before you've even started, so get your priorities right and the order in which you deal with them and you'll hopefully make it ! The only reason I say what I say is because I've been there my friend !

thanks [FONT=verdana,geneva,lucida,arial]Deliberator. Appreciate sound advice. I havent spent much, got some A5 Leaflets, stickers for car and an advert in local newspaper. The current economic climate doesn't help. I am still in a fulltime job, so my business is part time for the time being. My plan is to try and get a healthy client base, once this is achieved I would leave my fulltime job. [/FONT]
