Say I have some software and I have it all finished and everything, how do I go about getting it into shops? How do I go in a and talk to them? I don't mean shops like PC World (yet anyway) I mean my local PC shop. How do I get bar codes sorted? How do they work? What do I say to the people in the shop, do I let them look at the product? Do I give them x number as a free trial? How many should I produce at a time? Help?

Jump to Postits against the licence to use them after the 30 day trial period
that still doesnt stop 99% of people using it. as they realise they can get away with it. until a surefire way of allowing people to try a product for a period of time becomes available it …
Jump to Postyeah it just nags you after the 30 days
i try to encourage people who do this to move to 7-zip (freeware forever). 7z also supports more formats
Jump to Post>i hate free trials - i mean, how many of us have used winzip/winrar past the 30 days eh?
I was told it WAS free. Then a little message popped up "winzip isn't free software", that disappeared by clicking the close button...
i do and still am hahaha
oh, well …
Jump to Posti use 7.zip to do zip, cab,, tar, bzip, tar.gz so i reacon it would do rar, yeah.
Jump to PostYou can find out what it supports by reading 7zip's website.
