I am constantly looking for different ways to advertise. Before moving to the islands, I used to advertise in the phone books and the newspapers but now I live somewhere way smaller and am catering to tourists/people on vacation so I don't feel like that would work.
My friend came up with the idea of making business cards and handing them to men in tourist districts. I felt that would make me too high profile. Does anyone else advertise outside of the internet? Any tips?
Advertising without the internet here in the UK would mean printed media - newspapers, magazines and so on. Handing out cards in public would be soliciting and illegal, so I'd be amazed if it wasn't wherever you are.
I don't think it would work anyhow - it seems a lot of trouble to go to when most will just be thrown away. You'd also have to think how you would distribute these cards - are you going to actually physically hand them to men you think look as if they might pay a prostitute? If so I'd be prepared for some abuse, too.
