Instead of politely turning away offers to promote you and your small business, Entrepreneur recommends taking these offers up. There are a lot of ways that someone can help promote your business; most of them involve networking and personal involvement. A person offering to help can put up your information in a variety of ways – whether on their own social media platform or in their business.
