One thing that people who succeed with passive income streams all have in common is that they know how to market, and they use this knowledge to promote themselves and their products. They know that to make money they need to have an excellent product AND that they need to market it to people who need it.

As a business coach, I speak to many people every week. And sometimes I meet service professionals (coaches, consultants, writers, etc), who tell me that they do not need to market, because their customers should find them, as their expertise speaks for itself.

Marketing is the process of getting the word out about your business. If you don’t tell people about your business, if your web site does not get indexed in search engines, if you can’t generate leads from your business web site, and keep in touch with your leads, and turn them into your customers – how will your customers find out about you? They have to be told that you exist, what your expertise is, why they need to hire you and how to hire you. Your marketing strategy is what is going to get your target customers happily buy your products and hire you.
