I am hoping to gain some understanding of what small business owners spend most of their money on (in terms of third party things, like banners, flags, other promotional bits; as well as advice services and the like)?

Thanks
Will

It all varies from business to business so not sure what help I will be.

Yes, ping me an email hello@jackspring.co.uk. I own a couple of businesses in different sectors - all relatively small in size. More than happy to have a chat.

We spend as little as possible.
There is a whole industry built up on promoting/advertising small businesses, and most of them charge eye watering amounts for their services. The best results come from getting a mention in local and national press and magazines. This is generally free if you send them a sample and a bit of publicity material, they are always looking for stuff to fill their pages.

diifficult to give any advice without knowing what sector you're in. i generally think word of mouth (and that can include things like facebook) is obviously very cost effective but is a great way to grow organically. i run a pretty successful small agency for a bloke who's well respected and i've hardly made a sales call in 20 years of being here.it all comes in by word of mouth. other agencies are just as successful with all sorts of promotional gifts, days out, meals etc etc
