Once you get to a certain size, just do repeating products and have an employee do them: yes, you can do better by playing the mini game yourself but you can launch ten times more products by not playing it.
At first, only spend on new things once you've already hit your profit goal for the year. Also, spend as much as you can to get your profit to only slightly above the goal, so the goal next year isn't inflated (hm, perverse incentives?)
Hire employees with high marketing skills to ward off patent trolls and other problems. Once you have spare employees, have recurring promos as well. Can always pull employees off the recurring for emergencies then put them back on after.
