[QUOTE="microtactix, post: 1146468, member: 10744"] MicroTactix has never sold through SVGames... and I've heard nothing here that would make me want to do so. On the other hand, RPGnow has a virtual monopoly on PDF sales in our industry for one real reason -- they're doing the job right. They earn the Gold Vendor commission I give them, and I'm exceedingly happy with the results. Realize that I say this having NO axe to grind here. In fact, you could argue the opposite. Sandy Antunes and I started the FIRST efforts to do large-scale PDF sales (with ZAPdeliver) and eventually took what we learned there to help create RPGnet's operation. Sadly, Wizard's Attic sank the RPGnet Mall (and took a large chunk of MicroTactix's money with it), something neither Sandy nor I could do a thing to stop. In the meantime, RPGnow built a good operation, kept making it better, and CONTINUES to do so despite the fact that they have no real competition. Why? They seem to "get it" that this end of the industry has enormous potential and (unlike WA), they understand that it is to their long-term benefit to build the base of publishers and continue to give their vendors excellent service. So, when we were forced to leave the RPGnet Mall that we, ourselves, helped to create... RPGnow greeted us with open arms, treated us to exceptional service, and generally helped us triple our business in short order. What's more, they seem to do the same thing for vendors with just one or two products, too. MicroTactix offers almost 100 products now through RPGnow, and I expect we will continue to use them as our exclusive electronic distributors -- simply because they get our products to customers reliably, and give us every tool we ask for to build our business. Why in heaven's name should we CONSIDER giving anyone else a BIGGER cut to do LESS? Guy McLimore [email]guymc@microtactix.com[/email] MicroTactix Games [url]http://www.microtactix.com[/url] [/QUOTE]
