When selling software anywhere, but especially on the Internet, it is important to prepare first.  It’s an easy thing to say … “I’m going to sell my software on the Internet”, but have you really thought about it ?

• How much will you charge for a license for your software ?
• Is it a per user license ? a site license ? a per seat license ?
• What is your target market ?
• How much will customers be prepared to pay ?
• Are you going to give your potential customers a free trial first ?
• Or are you going to make them pay up front before they get the software ?
• Do you offer discounts for the purchase of multiple licenses ?
• How will you protect your software from piracy ?
• How will you take payment ?
• How will your customers find you ?
• How will you promote your software ?
• Will you use affiliates ?
• Do you have a web site set up ?
• How do you get Google to index your web site ?

I’ll deal with all of these questions and more in the Selling Software – Preparing For Sale series of posts over the coming weeks.
