Do you use pay per click advertising? If not, that is a very good place to start because you can set it all up yourself in an hour or so. Look at Google Adwords, Overture.com, Kanoodle etc.

Internet Marketing

I agree with dominoman. You should look into PPC campaigns to see immediate results. For the long term however, I do recommend optimizing your website. That is the most affordable way to market. My website offers tips on what you can do to improve your search engine placement. (Its FREE)

I do notice a few things you could improve on now:

One, your site map is a very critical piece for search engines and it doesn't look like the link is working.

Two, I took a look at some of your keywords and they are super competitive which means your chances for ranking on them aren't too good (even in the future). I recommend tath you revisit those and focus on more targeted keywords that will bring you conversions. There are a variety of free keyword tools out there. I prefer overture and wordtracker.

Good Luck,
