If you installed a ROM that wasn't for the model of S3 Mini you have, it won't work. Reinstall the stock ROM (see [Samsung] How to flash Stock ROM via ODIN). If you can't even get it into download mode, you'll have to find a JTAG service on eBay that can flash that model phone.

(There is a way to boot it from the SD card, but you have to have the card prepared first. Go to Samsung Galaxy S III Mini - XDA Forums and ask if anyone has a boot image for the phone they can post for you, and instructions on how to flash it to an SD card.
