    I also agree with Natasha's insightful input on this topic. If you
    approach this idea from the perspective of a business plan it will
    be much easier to look at the bigger picture and envision the process
    in it's entirety. Then you can see how all of the pieces of the
    puzzle will need to fit together to be successful, and make the
    appropriate adjustments at the beginning stages of the process. 

    I think many artists who produce and market their own work would
    agree that it is best to try to develop at the onset all of the
    aspects of what the product will be, how it will be produced and
    funded, where it will fit into the marketplace, and how it will be
    marketed.  The prospect of creating a product first and then going
    out after the fact to try to find a market for it is much more
    difficult, and a far riskier venture.
