Distribution as key element
After some rejections, many authors begin to think of founding their own company and to do it all by themselves. In view of the technical developments, a product today can be much more easily be realized than some years ago. Also at smaller print-runs.
However, often the most critical point is that people tend to forget the selling strategy. One will be able to sell game at the big fairs, but what besides that? How to sell off the remaining copies? Unfortunately, there are many examples of private bankruptcies deriving from that problem.
So please think also of a realistic distribution marketing!
