First and foremost I'd like to acknowledge those patrons of the site who contribute to us by using our Amazon and YesAsia links (and donating). We certainly wouldn't have come this far without you. Secondly, I truly appreciate those individuals who have written reviews/comparisons and supplied us with pertinent information to post. Both groups are aware of who they are and I'd like to note their invaluable and generous assistance.
It doesn't matter how much work we do, the ratio of hits/revenue is just not there to sustain us other than during Holiday season. Profit rises but costs rise further. My obvious option is to review more popular/mainstream DVDs that always seem to outsell our current selections.... but unless I find it a notable or exceptional title - I really don't have any interest in that route. I certainly can't blame anyone for seeking out more cost-effective purchasing solutions as opposed to being satisfied with the reliability and ease of Amazon... and after our abysmal association with DVDSoon I don't intend to seek out partnering with further cut-rate e-tailors.
I'm going to take a rest for the next few days and decide if I am willing to invest anymore time and money into DVDBeaver. My poor business sense shows again as I felt certain we had enough of a fan-base, for classic, world and occasionally Indie cinema on DVD, to keep us afloat. Our hits are very good and continue to flourish but our revenue consistently dwindles as a ratio...
Best regards,
Gary
