Hey fellow fastlaners!

I have recently started a "Craigslist of Rentals" Website. Everyone can post stuff they would like to rent.

I am trying to market my business to pawn shops to get some items listed on my website.

I have been calling a couple pawn shops, telling them about my website, and how they can make some money, while their items are still sitting at the store.

But so far, the businesses all say they are not interested.

I am wondering if my calling technique is wrong...
How do you market your business?? Should I tell them the benefits on the first call?? Or should I just let them know what my business does? And let them figure out the benefits for themselves?? What is the best way to market your business?


All responses will be taken to heart and I will GREATLY Appreciate it!!
