Just make sure you know what you're doing, negative word of mouth is just as effective in a negative sense.

I started my photography business in a new city, where I didnt' have much word of mouth to work off of. Google Adwords has been a godsend for me.

Word of mouth mostly. facebook (2500 potential clients that gets update of my work all the time), online ads and giving away business cards.

Lately i started a small referel program. I give 2 business cards that as a -10% on it so my client can give them to familly and friends. I got a bunch of clients calling in with these cards lately. 10% is not much off but seems it enought to bring them in. this is working well for me so far.
