Very well said Shelleyrae!
Especially the behind the scenes work. If all I had to do was make items my computer would be full (heck I already do that) but if I didn't have to save all my files corectly with the compression level and in a different file formats, remembering to save the original files (just in case), do previews
, name the files correctly, get it all into a folder and zip file correctly, attach the right TOU files, instructions for use, description, upload to my store, fill in all the details, make sure it is all correct 5 times over. Then remember to announce it in the forums, make up sales Ad's, coupons and blinkies and banners....figure out where you can place these ads without getting in trouble.....whew
.....I would have a lot more in my store!! LOL
One of these day I am going to track my days spent on the behind scene work for one product from conception all the way to the first day I get it all uploaded and then do a average on how it sells, to figure out I only make 5 cents an hour!! LOL
