No. Someone needs to get the job done

It depends a bit on the product, some marketing studies have found it can take up to 7 exposures to a brand/product name for people to develop the trust to make a purchase, getting your name seen in different places also helps your overall credibility. Links from social sites also help a business's search engine ranking a bit.

Some do well using paid Facebook ads as their main marketing method.

No not at all if you aren't having luck with them then you should try video marketing. I recommend you using this software - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXzZMRxhn...oad_owner, it has the software link in the description and it tells why the software is good and all and some of it's features, this software should help you boost your profits to your business but I recommend you make a website for your business first then use the video to draw traffic to your website then use the website to draw business to you, then you can post the videos on social media sites and youtube and other
