This question has no further details.
Answers
Hello! First some questions. Are you working in a specific local market? What have you done to attract clients in the past? How did it work? Do you have a client base now? Have you tried any referral marketing at all? What are you teaching?
YouTube , Instagram and Snap Chat.. This is where that age group congregates. You must talk to your market in the place where your market spends time.
Hey There,
I've been doing digital marketing for over 15 years, and quite a few of those years, I worked in content marketing. This is a good industry to be in right now.
I would suggest you not think about "viral", and consider "helpful". When you create valuable, helpful content, Google will rank you and you will benefit of the long-tail in terms of SEO organic traffic. It will take a bit longer, but it will give you a much stronger return on your investment.
Here is my general approach:
1) Consider the target audience's needs. What drives them? What problem are they trying to solve that you might be able to assist with?
2) With the above list of needs, go on Google and start typing in your search (but slow down...). As you type in your phrase, you will notice Google will suggest search phrases. Watch for phrases that might be relevant -- these are popular searches around what you were typing.
3) Write blog post or content that is helpful around those topics/needs.
4) Use the above content to help drive customer engagement and actual sales. One approach might be to give away something of value in exchange for a name and email. It could be an eBook, or a "how to" guide, etc.
5) You can then use the emails to further drive deeper engagement with those qualified interested leads into your bootcamp seminars.
Of course, you can then use all the tools at your disposal to drive increased SEO value through links (Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, etc).
Just some thoughts to consider. Feel free to schedule a call with me if you'd like my help in helping you develop a digital marketing strategy for your product.
I have organized over 25 online webinars during the last 2 years about topics related with online marketing and product management. Unfortunately, there is no silver bullet to get viral power. It would be helpful if you provide more context so my answer could be more accurate to your particular case. If you are organizing your first online webinar your challenge should be how to get 1 viewer that cares about what you do. Then we can keep talking about next steps.

How can I effectively market my online business to baby boomers / senior citizens?
You have a lot of options to market to boomers and seniors. That age group is facebook's fastest growing segment. Build ads that target that age group and think about having a facebook page to supplement your efforts there. Older people search just like the rest of us as well, so build an adwords campaign around keywords that might align with your product. Contact me if you'd like to chat about some options or need some help building your campaigns. Good luck!JR

What is the best timing in the new year to launch business marketing?
Hi there! In few words, the launch date does not matter a lot as long as you are following with a continuous marketing plan all the year. It is better to tune your lunch date according to your marketing campaign than connecting it to the seasonal event. The timing of your launch only matters if your website is already ranked or has a good authority associated to it. Launching a website is not like opening a local shop. The launch date is defined by the effectiveness of your marketing campaign. In other words, your question must be rephrased as: "When is the best time to launch my first marketing campaign for my newly created website?". In that case, you will need to describe in details what kind of website you have and how are you planning to market it. I would be able to give you a more accurate answer if you explain to me what kind of website are you planning to launch or what products mainly are you selling. Hope that helps!RZ

What is the best country to start an online marketing and design business in?
I have registered over 20 companies in the last decade and from my experience I can tell you that every country serves a different purpose. I run a small gambling company that I have registered in Malta due to the legality of online gambling there. I have another company registered in Delaware, whilst my main company is registered in the Netherlands. If your business is only online I would advise you to register it in Europe or if you must in the United States in Delaware/Nevada. Credibility wise I would say that registering your company in Singapore or Malta or Costa Rica, will not benefit you much opposed to say Delaware or The Netherlands. I am available for a call if you need anymore help. I am currently doing a promotion for a one time free 15 minute phone call so just send me a message for the discount code.GS

What are the best ways to generate traffic or ways to reach to the customers you are looking for as a startup?
It really comes down to 2 major buckets. 1) CONTENT / INBOUND MARKETING Some people consider this option free, but it's not. Time is money, and it requires an major investment to do it right. The options are: - Company blog - Guest post on other blogs - Engage on social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) - Press - Videos on YouTube - Create a free App (web or mobile) etc ... This strategy is all about create amazing content/information/tools for your customers. Think about their major questions they have for your industry, and answer them. Even consider teaching them everything you know about your industry. Doing so will attract them, and make you look like an authority. I've done this with my past 2 companies Flowtown (300K U/V), and Clarity (40K U/V) blogs. Each of the items mentioned above have a unique strategy and tactic .. so best to pic the one you'd be most excited about creating, and do just that one with all your resources. 2) PAID MARKETING Paid means using advertising to introduce your company to potential customers. Some options you have: - Google Adwords - Facebook Ads - Twitter Ads - Bing Ads - Banner Ads etc ... The only way I would suggest paid marketing is if you truly understand your customer LTV (Lifetime Value). If you don't know that, then you could be wasting money attracting views to your startup that aren't profitable. So be sure to have a product / service that makes profit, then you can test different paid marketing channels. My rule of thumb, is it'll cost your $200 to get 1 new paying customer (on avg.), so unless you're making $600 profit from a new customer, don't both for now. If you need to discuss further, you know how to find me.DM
