For a major corporation, the cost of reaching a new customer and doing something special is outweighed by the returns coming in from their already large customer base.

But there is more to traffic generation than just getting a good starting position and waiting for visitors to arrive.

Keeps all your appointments, contacts and email in one spot so it's all synched up. I can also store email templates and phone "scripts" (bullet point items of what to cover on certain types of calls).

I found out there were many different methods like as (1) social media like Digg, Reddit, StumbleUpon, Twitter (2) posting comments on other blogs/forums (3) posting articles on popular article directories like Ezine and Hubpages. Some others are so obsessed about reducing costs that they just hold back on spending until they earn money.
