1. Affiliate programs. In an affiliate program, you mostly act as a middleman between your partner company and the buying public. You will be promoting the goods and services that your partner merchant company sells, and in return you will receive a percentage of the sales you generate.

Prospective customers will come over and give you a big hug - because you clearly understand them and their needs. And if the hugs aren't enough for you - they are pretty likely to give you their cash as well. Whoopee!
How do you decide which segments to go for?
If you are an established business - begin by analysing your customer list (both past and present). Cluster together customers with the same profiles.
Think about the types of customer you like dealing with. Consider which segments have the best financial prospects. Conduct some market research.
With regard to market research - you could of course hire a market research company. However, if you can't afford this, here are some alternative ideas for you: Do some 'Desk Research' in your local library; Carry out some research yourself, using questionnaires; Find out as much as you can about your prospective customers.
Build an integrated marketing campaign
The next step is to sort your marketing out - so that it delivers consistent messages to your target market segments.
Conclusion
If you adopt this approach - your marketing will be much more focused. This means that your audience will be more prepared to listen to you. In addition, as your messages are not being scattered - they are more likely to be repeated to the right people.
This in turn helps with brand recognition. This is how 'famous name brands' and successful businesses are built.
