Old Post :
Hey guys,
Remember ones i posted an educational game and everyone told me that it was a bad idea,etc well i have managed to get over 3000 $ with that product.
I made it by selling it in the streets,etc.
Take a look at the pictures in my Facebook fan page and you can see how i was selling the cd's.

And there is also a video showing(not in english tho) how i visit various elementary schools in the facebook page i just provided under "videos".
Pleas tell me what you guys think on this progress and if possible pleas like my Facebook fan page page : http://www.facebook.com/pages/Margin-En ... 5736184164 ,it helps me to move forward.
Thank you in advanced.

Young entrepreneurs - I love seeing their drive (literally in this case :)) and passion. One day you will tell your children "I started out of the trunk of my car" and have the video to prove it.

Keep up the good work Lil Margin, you're on your way!

No idea. I simply say what I feel I need to say, and say nothing when I have nothing to say. You can call it what you want. :wink:

To be honest, if you look at it the old fashion way has allot of money in it because lets say your selling a 5$ game, most people wont care on spending 5$...some people may even give you the money so you stop bothering them.

Lets say you made 200 sells in 5 days, that's 1000$ a week :D

while on a website people may THINK before buying the product :)

and they'd have to pay for shipping, which would further increase their doubt in the product.
while another good way would be to get someone that could cause influence on people (Let's say owner of a really popular blog, a newspaper, whatever) would review your game, though less likley it would probably be more effective.
