Likwid24's comment on a different thread:

Likwid24 said:
What do you think of affiliate marketing as a means to make some extra cash while working on my real fastlane plan??

I'm getting tired of running my painting business. I have my slow times like now where I'm not making much money from it. Then I have my busy season starting September, where I make decent money but I don't even have time to take a Sh*T!

Keep in mind that the painting is a side biz right now. I run it like its a full time business but my real JOB right now is a firefighter. I make over 100k a year as a firefighter and I only work about 2 days a week. It's usually 2 24 hour shifts a week, so I have a ton of free time. With that time I make extra cash with my painting and I'm working on my first product for my new company, which is going well so far.

What would some thoughts be about me selling the painting business and doing affiliate marketing until my first product comes out? My painting business is established. I've had it over 6 years and have a nice following of loyal customers with the list growing each year. I can probably pass it off to one of my workers.

I should have probably started a separate thread for this!

*********

Please feel free to comment on how you see affiliate marketing or other endeavors as "fuel" (ie, generating cash) for building your fastlane.

And please-- if you like this topic, don't give my post here rep speed (I'm just copying Likwid's post). When Likwid24 responds, rep HIS post!

Thanks,

-Russ H.
