The yacht gig happened almost by accident, Alan. But I’m glad it did =)
Some products lend themselves to marketing on bogs better than others. Usually “expensive” is good, because you don’t need a huge number of customers in order to be successful.

Okay, Hugh. I get it. You are the new LVMH.
And you really are in a good position to become just that. The blogosphere can reach the exceedingly rare, super-duper rich folks, that have to spend ever more money to have exclusive symbols of status.
There are so many of-the-rack luxury goods, their value as items that set you apart is diminished.
Look for that which cannot be made affordable, and market it. You’re good at it.
