You have no doubt already found your transactional lender invaluable when it comes to flipping houses quickly with minimal risk and for maximum profits, but can they help you with your marketing expenses too?

If you are serious about real estate investing, regardless of whether you are flipping a few houses a month with funding from your transactional lender or you are focus mainly on buy and hold you probably have a good amount of marketing going on. This may include direct mail, telemarketing, display advertising, your website, a blog, PPC advertising and social media marketing. Whatever you are doing, it can certainly add up, but obviously you can’t expect to be flipping a significant number of homes each month without some type of advertising.

So how can you off set your marketing costs or tap into additional money so that you can expand on what you are doing?

One of the easiest ways to add to your income every month is through referral partner or affiliate programs. This is especially true if your real estate investing enterprise does a lot of online marketing. You can easily monetize your blog and website and even social media by allowing or running affiliate ads. This pays you a commission for every visitor who clicks on an add or buys something from a partner. This can be done through PPC with Google Adwords, affiliate directories and networks like Clickbank or Commission Junction or by hand selecting complimentary services.

If you haven’t asked your transactional lender yet they may have a referral program too. You probably run into other investors and buyers everyday who could use a transactional lender and who would be really grateful for the referral. So why not get paid for it? You could be making up to 10% of the fees your transactional lender makes on their transactions. It doesn’t take a genius to see that this could quickly build up to quite a nice marketing budget every month!
