Cash flow from your business comes from smart and intense use of your skills. Profit comes from patient work and takes time to build and get going.

One of the most important keys to making your residual cash income is marketing. Your goal should be to build a good business to market and do a good job at it.

Marketing is available to you offline as well as online. Young people brought up in the Bill Gates computer decades will find this hard to believe.

You have many marketing ideas for income formulas available to you. The winning affiliate idea for you is to simply market your opportunity to other human beings.

Starting a home or office business and keeping it a secret, from everyone, will never let you sell e-books on eBay, club digital media from your web site or antiques from your store. If your budget is very low, start with passing out business cards and even posting hand written notices on bulletin boards.

Successful businesses market in different ways. Take your product and get at least a little excited about it. Share the story with others.

Something as simple as making up flyers and putting them on neighborhood doorknobs with rubber bands can get you started. I started this way myself.

Another possible beginning marketing strategy is to make up a catchy phrase for your business. For example, digital media solution, if you are dealing in digital media or electronic shopper if you are an eBay marketer.

Try to reflect your business and make it something easy to remember and recall. Doing this will make it hard to forget and easily reflects your business. Businesses do this all the time.

Even small businesses can make memorable campaign slogans and catchy phrases. Play with the idea of making your own catchy tune to it. This will be viral and others will hear it and start saying, humming or seeing it.

Make it remind everyone of your business and product. Do not sweat it but rather have fun working on and developing it.

Make it help customers to relate to the business and develop a loyalty to the product. Make it simple and creative.

It may take some time to come up with but once you find it you will be pleased with how it helps to develop your marketing program.

Online marketing is difficult to develop until you find the right buttons to push. In time, the buttons will change but this is how life goes.

Marketing online is usually difficult. The inter net is a virtually infinite place. To find a marketing niche is difficult until you learn how to catch the eyes and ears of your target market audience.

You the business owner now need to search for your desired target market. It may be something as simple as dogs, embroidery or everything like an instant language translation software that can be world wide by many millions of people.

For a large audience, if you do not mind being an affiliate, a universal affiliate product like language translation software can be sold to leads world wide. This is an example of a giant market.

Another new product on the market the last couple years is digital media that can be transferred to ipods, mp3 players and other media. Digital media, like the translation software above, can be marketed to a large audience.

The blind can hear Moby Dick, Main Street or the life, to date, of Bill Gates or other innumerable written materials that can be translated from the written to spoken word. Students can learn unlimited subjects while they rest.

Keep your eyes, mind and ears open for unlimited items like this that have a giant and perpetual market to be sold to. Think niche market to sell to. If it is a giant niche with unlimited potential that is okay also.

Imagine the type of person that will want and need your product. Your next step is to advertise to online and offline markets where your target market is.

This makes it easier to catch their attention and sell to them. The combination of a cool slogan and target market will equal a good marketing campaign. It takes a little more to make your business a success though.

The last segment of a marketing campaign is measuring the results. You want to know how your marketing plan is working so you can tweak it for better results.

It is a waste of your money to advertise anywhere that is not producing results. Many online programs allow you to precisely track your marketing efforts.

Making a marketing campaign and having a clearly defined target market are essential to successful marketing and monitoring if a business owner is to successfully earn residual cash income.

Each segment of your marketing game plan is important. You, as the business owner must ensure that each part is being done properly.

Monitor long term ads in progress. Mistakes by marketing agencies through misunderstandings are always made. Correct mistakes quickly.

Marketing can seem like a difficult challenge, but with this three part formula it is easy. Like anything in life, once you start doing it, you get steadily better at it
