[QUOTE="gamerprinter, post: 4845158, member: 50895"] [b]Sales speculation[/b] Because I'm not the only decision maker on this project, I don't necessarily have hard numbers to offer just yet. But on speculation on prices the publisher I am working with has sold past PDF products. I'm guessing the retail price for the adventure PDF to be $7.99 - there are two follow-up adventure modules to this mini-campaign arc, so the same for those as well. Guessing on total numbers, is just that, a guess, because this is my first product, and with the weakened economy, I don't really know. I think a break-even point would be 1000 sales (still just a rough guess here.) My goal is to sell 10,000 copies, with the possibility of less orders up front, but with positive reviews, more purchases when the second adventure is released will have more adventure one purchases, to eventually reach a 10,000 copy purchase by adventure 3 - again pure speculation here. While I'd love to have 100,000 sales - I'm trying to be a realist here. My sales venue plans include placing it here in RPGNow, at the Paizo store (part of the agreement with the PFRPG Compatibility License for early printed manual.) Perhaps through RPGDrive-thru as well, Through Roleplayingtips.com newsletter in direct links to the main publishers website and/or my own Gamer-Printshop website - though I am sure I'll have a specific site for the setting on its own, and perhaps sell directly from that site instead. In the fall I plan to create a splat book to the setting, while providing a free Lite version Alpha PDF, to be released with the first adventure. These are my plans and perceptions anyway. Does that answer your question, Wulf? (I'll definitely be purchasing your product as well!) GP [/QUOTE]
