I think the best way to contact an ECA prospective is by starting with the people who you know (direct contact) that owns a business and can market their products online. For example, last night I was talking to one of my girlfriend who informed me that she just opened up a boutique selling Jewelry. Well The first thing I did after our conversation ended was to send her the referral link so that she can start selling her products on TripleClicks.
As for the people you don’t know directly. I think that the door –to-door or in store contact works best. The fact that you are able to sit down face to face with someone and tell them what the program is all about works better than sending a letter in the mail that will more likely be looked at as junk mail and placed in the trash.
However, since this might not always be the case you can try giving them a call or try advertising. The great thing about advertising is that if someone isn’t interested they will not call or sign up.
It is good to note that different methods works best for different individuals. If you aren’t a people person then the in-store or door-to-door approach might not provide the best results for you. As a result you should limit yourself to only one approach but explore all options possible like the ones that are outlined for us in the ECA referral guide such as
Sending letters
Advertising
Going door-to door
Telemarketing
Just to name a few.
