- Public relations is a big one not on your list

Being India’s well known Design firm in Google, we largely depends on SEO, direct mailer, reference and hiring a sales person in our studio. Many design firms can ask for work from big ad agencies, press, etc. - Krish India Design
I think the best way is to promote your website using natural search engine algorithms. We used spend a lot of money in advertising. Now since our website is quite well promoted we get 90% of our work from search engines like Google. We have altogether stopped advertising in the local media now.
