It requires some good connections and partnerships as it were to get all the pieces you need. Even then, you still need descriptions, and other things in place.
Just when you think you have it all handled, you run into issues like I talk about HERE. You think that you do not have to take those extra steps and can pinky wave them into the moonlight, but when others drop the ball it comes back on you.
While there is a market, you have to develop that market. It does not just exist out of the blue. You see all the marketing and promotions I do. That's across various boards and sites. It's profitable, but time consuming. Not only up to the sale, but after you're done you are still providing support. |
I don't generally provide "support" after the sale.... because in most cases, there's nothing to support. It's sent off to programmers and various other people, and what I've done at my level of the dev is over. Of course if someone needs more material, that's one thing.... or a duplicate of the original dev or something.... but I am not an ongoing copywritier or programming support station here. The project ends from my side when it's approved and delivered and paid for. Beyond that, they're on their own.
