In theory this has a better chance of selling than the previous two, because furries are more likely to buy something custom than something premade. This because they must have their fursona, just exactly like it is in their head, or how it looks on their badge, or whatever. Of course theory and practice often differ, so we'll see.

Hee hee hee! I think you've hit on a wellspring of marketability here. Those things are cute.

I hope so! Certainly response has been positive overall. But it's a matter of publicity. How do I let people know about them?

Come up with a catchy slogan?

"Loonakits: The Original Loveable Fuzzballs."
"Loonakits: Little Puffs of Cuteness."
"Loonakits: Not Related to That Cruddy Revamped-Looney-Tunes Show."

How much does it cost to get sponsored links on google? I'm just thinking in case someone searches for "plush toys" or "plushies" or the like, if your link appears in there it might generate more publicity...

How much it costs depends on how many other companies/individuals have a sponsored like for that same search term. Thus, I can get "fursuit" (which I have!) very cheap, because furry is a very small segment of the population, so very few other people advertise on that search term. But "plush toys" and "plushies" those are MUCH more common search terms, and will thus cost more to get.
