Instead of just selling other people's stuff first through affiliate programs, I dove in head first and bought the reprint rights to an information product. And now I just hope to work my butt and brain to try and make this work. I keep going back and forth on whether I should try and market it myself or be an associate manager and let others sell it for me and offer a very high percentage.

My question is... Could I be setting myself up with real problems, even with a good associate program, by being a beginner and jumping right up to that level? Or is this possibly a good plan since I am not yet a great marketer myself?

When working for others I usually did very well by getting in a little over my head and being forced to succeed. I'm not looking to get rich quick. I just wanted to jump in and force myself to be focused instead of continually researching as many do. This looked like a good product with real potential.

Any feedback is appreciated, even if it's to say I messed up. (In which case I will hide from my kids and husband and have an anxiety attack.) I cannot thank you all enough for all of the wisdom that is so kindly passed on this board.
