For small businesses (or really any business!) simple is usually better.

Often we look for something outrageous or attention-grabbing to try to create buzz, but just asking can go a long way. A few years ago I had some printing done by a print shop. They asked me by email if I would please recommend them, and if I would email them a testimonial. I was happy to do so and find it interesting that no other business that I frequent has asked me to do so. Simple and effective. Try it, it works!
