Leveraging social media is key when you have zero budget. Post consistently across all relevant platforms. Share your story, engage with your audience, run giveaways, do collabs. It's a grind but it works. Also optimize your site for SEO so you show up in searches. Guest post on blogs in your niche for backlinks. And reach out to influencers for shoutouts - some micro influencers will do it just for free product. Hope this helps! Bootstrapping marketing ain't easy but it's doable with hustle and creativity.
