If you own an E-Biz, is it worth your time to try to "do it yourself" when it comes to advertising or traffic generation -- or should you just hire a qualified marketing company to handle this aspect for you?

Example -- I am using prostores.com to host my online store, and they have several marketing packages available that I am considering purchasing. Before I decide to use them, I'd like to hear some tips from do it yourselfers out there, to see if it's worth my time to try to go it alone -- As these packages are very expensive... Some are $1500 per month.

Cheers,
