What could you sell direct?

I thought we could start a list of brainstorming ideas for direct sales.

E-books are a good idea. My suggestion is keeping the price (tipping point) at the exact amount that customers will purchase without walking away because it is too expensive.

Paperback/real books - These ship easily, store in books in flat layers.

T-shirts - If you have a community or loyal readers, consider an amusing t-shirt to brand your logo while you make a few bucks.

Same goes with mugs.

I do sell t-shirts already on most of my forums. Aside from that, I could offer other brand building items as you suggested: mugs, pens, bumper stickers, hats, and so on. You could package and sell audio / video contents, not just ebooks in written form. I am sure there is much more as well...

I've been thinking of putting together a CD version of my website, not the whole thing but a chunk of the content. I'm unsure how to proceed but thought it might have a value.

Otherwise, I've also been working on some simple items to add value to my upgraded members without having to ship so this would include downloadable items. Just need to think about it a bit....and come up with something worthwhile.

Making me think! I personally am an ebay powerseller
I am also in direct sales and promote Global Resorts Network with GRN Team Builder which closes sales for me. Personal branding is great as well. I use youtube and others. I believe that you need a good stand alone product as Global resorts Network offer. It has been offering their membership to
4-5 star resort in 5000 countries for over 21 years. Global Resorts pay their affiliate $1000 each time someone joins this membership and residuals from your partners.
take care
