Idea: Children's birthday parties

Offer your services as a children's birthday party photographer.

The idea here is to promote your services at the places where parents go. You could put up a poster or drop off some flyers at indoor play centres, kindergartens, or junior schools close to your home. Some supermarkets have community notice boards where you could put up a free advertisement.

You could also advertise in magazines or newsletters that have parents/mothers as readers. Try including a special offer.
