We’ve probably all been there — sitting around and we just made $10,000 yesterday and want to know what to invest in for our next venture – when it’s not hookers and blow of course. This is decision time and usually, if you’re like me anyway, it almost always ends up being near the end of a month when your campaigns end.
With this in mind I’ve put together a little list of some common things to market every month of the year. I realize this list is far from complete, very subjective and maybe even speculative. But let’s face it certain things “always” work, and are here to stay.
So, with that said, here’s the list myself and the Off White Hat came up with.
Feel free to add more in the comments and I’ll update the post.
