Re: Print Yellow Pages

What I found at least in my area is if you contact the yellow page sales 
dept. in your area they usually give you a small ad free the first 
year.  You may want to try that.  I had a small ad in my yellow page 
section and found that the potential clients that I found were all people 
that I would choose not to work for because of one reason or another but 
your findings may be different.
