Website, fb, insta, Twitter, reverbnation, email list, large banners for outside the venue and the stage, plus custom merchandise through zazzle type print to order web company, as well as other custom merch sold at shows.

As a hard rock/heavy cover band we will take every avenue available to promote and maximize exposure and profitability.

All of these things are so inexpensive these days you would have to be crazy not to use them.
 
I've had a Weebly free site for close to (10) years for my Corporate/Event acts, It had actually gotten us some business , also have been on Gig Salad/The Bash for a long while, I have an aversion to social media & avoid it.
 
For us, a website, Facebook and Youtube.
Bandzoogle has worked for us - looks professional, easy to manage and a source for videos and music clips. At only $99 annually it's not a big expense.

The business cards we had printed several years ago are on heavier card stock. We don't give out a ton of them, but we're prepared when we do. I'm in a Beatles band, so many of the people who hire us are older and appreciate what it represents - quality card/quality band.
