What forms of advertising have you tried if you don't mind me asking? Just online stuff?

Effective or not, I've been struggling to think of ways to advertise a small contract development business to enterprises other than adwords and seo.

"enterprises"? of what sort? a particular industry? Networking with people in that industry at their events, perhaps even speaking at those events, would do you a world of good, ime.

Find some local networking groups that deal with the industr(y|ies) you target, and start to infiltrate their ranks :)

P.S. "low/no cost marketing" is one of the sessions at http://indieconf.com this year :)

Oh for sure, networking and word of mouth seems to be 95% how the business works. I was just interested specifically in whether any success had been had with any forms of advertising other than adwords and seo.
