Sales

[Gazeeboh]

So I made up this system of divination, two actually.

I want to make lots of money off of them.

Has anyone here sold anything like this?
Can anyone here tell me how to go about marketing or just selling it?
Any good publishers?
Any trade tips?

I've got the prototypes all made up.
Someone want to just buy the idea for 20k?

Why don't you post them to your blog or start a small business on line. You could also advertise and put out flyers. Unless Anti has a buy and sell thread here you can't sell your wares on the forum. Perhaps you could suggest a buy and sell section.

[Gazeeboh]

Those are good ideas. I'm just not sure about the legalities, patents, and copyrights. Thats why I'm afraid to just come out and start selling it, for fear of some slick businessman running off with it.

Don't worry about the buy/sell section. I was only half serious about selling it for 20k here.

Do you think it wise to go for a big company? Hasbro has the Ouija board.
Or is there some occult expo?

HI BILLY MAYS HERE FOR DIVINATION!

Tell me one thing, you are not really Billy Mays hiding behind Gezeeboh.

Oh god, I wish I could say yes and not have it be a huge lie.

Though we are both wizards of the highest orders.

He has to be to get people to buy those products. My husband does a great imitation of Billy Mays. Gets annoying after a while, Billy Mays that is.
