To me this is two different questions.

Selling a CD? Forget it, unless your market is older Gen X'ers and Baby Boomers. Even still, Baby Boomers have gotten much more tech savvy (because they have the time to), so they'll just stream your music if you have electronic distribution. I'd sell CD's for $5 these days or do them as giveaways if I was selling t-shirts. Buy a shirt, get a free CD. Vinyl is the only physical platform doing anything special in terms of sales right now, but pressing vinyl is so expensive.

Get it noticed? Play gigs, and play a lot. Remember you are selling yourself, not just your product.
