Yet this is what has been required of me in all of my "stinkers".

I once created an add-in type of product (over 12 years ago) and it was
somewhat of a failure
 until I had one huge, multilicense sale that brought in a huge amount of
revenue. Suddenly, it was successful !
This is very similar to what had happened with Richard Branson when he
started Virgin Records....
It was failing and then he signed Phil Collins and Boy George.....and in the
end, he sold the company for
1 billion !!!
