What are your main sales and distribution platforms?

[BlakeIC]

And other optional platforms?

I used to use amazon and ebay
there was misinterpretation between the platforms and I so i can no longer sell on those platforms

(I know i could get around it, but am not in the position to even attempt getting around their blacklist systems)n

If we're talking online, there are almost unlimited ways to generate sales.

The key is to create a funnel that allows you to pay the most for advertising per each sale. Then you can basically use any traffic source that you'd like.

Sounds confusing? I'll clarify.

I.e If my current Average Customer Value is $20 at a margin of 50% = $10 profit, I know I can pay $10 at max in Advertising to acquire that customer to break even.
If I increase the Average Customer Value to $100 by creating a tripwire, core offer and profit maximizer, and my margin remains the same, I can now pay $50 to acquire each customer.

And the cool thing is that your cost to acquire each customer did not go up. You can outbid all your competitors and dominate.

I use PPC, Facebook, Google, Media-buys, affiliate, it's up to you really once you can get your funnel properly optimized and converting well.

Also, you never want to rely on one source for more than 50% of your sales ever, or your in trouble.
I'd share my battle scars, but I'll let the SEO guys get into the really gruesome stories Lol
