What is the best and cost effective way to advertise a new web sites name?

We are about to launch a new site in about 6 months. We are completing data work for the site to be funtional for its sole purpose. So, we have this site and we have no intentions in getting involved with pay per click, we can easily be indexed by search engines but thats truly not enough. We need to focus on all businesses by state starting with the east coast in its intirety. Where should we start. Buying lists in those quantites is expensive. All suggestions truly welcome. Thanks , Tim C
