    I`ve seen great results on facebook for toys. If you have something interesting and are targeting the right audience, facebook is one of the ways to go But be careful when placing your ad, they are pretty picky nowadays with selling ads

        Its a pretty broad question. Do you just mean retail or are you looking to do wholesale as well? It is a different path all together.

        If you are using an affiliate network, obviously you will need your e-commerce website, have you done that yet? If it is a single toy, then Shopify is probably one of the best platforms for single product companies.

        For physical products, the grand daddy is CJ Affiliate by Conversant (formerly known as Commission Junction) they are a bit on the pricey side. Cost wise, I think Share-a-sale is one of the more cost effective ones but you need to find the network that has the toy affiliates so don't discount eBay Affiliate Network, Rakuten (old linkshare), Avantgate and others.

        As for platforms to sell on, besides eBay and Amazon, check out Buy.com and possibly Bonanza.

        Ultimately, if you can do the volume, getting it into a retail store is the way to go...

    You mentioned you are already using Amazon. IMO it makes a lot of sense to being doing that with the FBA business model. The shipping costs are reduced and all customer satisfaction issues are turned over to them. For the small fees you pay to Amazon a lot gets taken off your plate.

      The 'toy company' doesn't have a clue? Nice choice of someone to partner with. I guess the real toy companies weren't that interested.

      Cheers. - Frank

    Why not create an ecommerce site? You can be up and running with WooCommerce or Shopify (among others) relatively quick and easy.

    Facebook is a good choice to sell your toy, and if you know some seo knowledge, you also can release some related information about your site in other site, such as do much backlinks, reply some other information, if you site's rank is improved, the amount of the sale will be improved.

      Just because you have your "toy" listed on Amazon and e-bay does not mean your job in promotion is done. Those are simply places to "Sell" your product. You still need to drive traffic there to make the sales.

      Your job at this point is to create the buzz around your product. The Christmas buying season sorta kinda started 15 days ago.

      I would create nice videos and get them onto youtube. I would get real active with twitter. I would be on snapchat and instagram like all get out. I would be nailing my blog with "Christmas blow out toy of 2015". We are talking a post a day or more for the next 90 days easy. every post needs a call to action at the bottom to get your toy on your site, on amazon or on ebay.

      I seriously would try and get ahold of any better than decent youtube toy channel and see about getting them your product for review. Time is ticking, so stop reading and get to work!
