Paid Promotion
If you are targeting a specific area or specific state you can choose paid promotion. Your task is to find the group in your state that is having more active followers. Ask them to share your portfolio on their page.
Some may do this free of cost but some may charge a decent amount for this. If they are meme creators ask them to create a meme regarding your product or service.
I am insisting on this because nowadays memes have more reach while comparing them with any other source. Definitely you can expect at-least one or two sales from these.
