That's where the trick to it is. Yes, you want to sell SOMETHING to as many people as you can. But you don't want to lose a FULL sale to someone who came to your site looking for a specific thing and have them lured away by somebody else's shit that you're advertising and only get a percentage of.
It's a tricky thing to do.

I think if you are a one man shop with limited resources you definitely have to be careful where your time and money is spent. However if you have a way of buying $5000 of traffic and only make $1000 on it to your sites but $4000 from external sales I'd take that in a heartbeat for the free exposure the brand gets. You do that 20 times and the exposure and experience (of selling that traffic) really elevates your site/product.
