I make it a point to do web/graphic design work for free for charitable organizations when I find a lull in my workload. Churches, food banks, etc. This has turned out to be my most effective marketing tool by a long ways.
6 hours of my time given for free without asking for anything in return just showing enthusiasm about giving back and doing a good job can get me up to 3 web-site referrals I've noticed. Pretty amazing, I just try to not expect business to come from it and operate off of the desire to give. (Sometimes my mind still gets greedy unfortunately)
