How does everyone expand their reach to customers in other states as they grow? Just looking for some ideas. I'd like to extend my reach out a little further than what I have now. Any & all tips/suggestions are welcomed :)

You can make a Facebook page for Your tackle thing.  Maybe even MySpace.  There's always eBay.  When You get online, You're open to the world.  You can buy mailing lists that will contain names and addresses of people who buy/have bought Tackle...send them a flyer or business card, maybe even a sample if You're feelin' Froggy.  You can find a web host and buy Your domain name, and build Your website.

Hey Dob,

I've been on your Facebook plastic page and I thought it was way-over-the-top cool.  Seriously, I liked it a lot and I encourage all the other users of this site to visit your page.  That page in and of itself could be a good marketing tool.
Until next time.

What is your page? I'd like to take a look. I just started a facebook page myself but it's still under construction for sure. I'm fairly new to all this and just being a sponge like a newbie should be.

The insight thing is probably my favorite aspect of it. It tells you so much info about your page traffic as well as traffic created by people liking and sharing things. You will be surprised how quickly a post can go viral.

I am converting a couple of our Company's sites to WordPress sites and using Amazon for the payment service (they are two really small businesses that our owner has.

You can have a local creative company create your site for you for a very reasonable cost...and then you just need to edit. the pages.

Google Sites is also VERY easy to use and learn. If you want to do it all yourself I would check into them. Their payment services are very reasonable also.
