At minimum, that requires a modern website, and visibility on relevant socialmedia sites, likely including Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter.
Customers won’t pay to see your new employees learning on the job, and outsourcing the real work to a cheap labor source is a recipe for disaster. Be accessible on socialmedia, write a blog or articles for industry publications, and participate in conference panels and speaking engagements.

I recommend using digital channels, including email and socialmedia, personalized, if possible, with promotions. Outsource functions outside your core competency. I see a new resurgence of outsourcing alternatives from outside the country as well as inside, driven by freelancers caught in the squeeze.
