I was pretty surprised to see USA companies selling direct through trademe.co.nz, no reason why you couldn't do that too. Just find your target countries, work out where they're trading online (it's not always ebay) and get going. So long as you are open you should find you can build up a reputation quickly.
do you have a website from where you can sell your products. I use presta store which gives the the optins of running a affiliate program through it which gives the seller a coupon for a discount on products and it give the buyer a discount also. How I would do your situation would be to have a splash/landing page to capture their email with a discount or free item from the store if they sign up. then I would go on to health and fitness forums and join and give good information and advice to other members, put a link in your signature leading back to the landing page. If members are asking for good products send them there within the reply to their thread. use facebook create a page and link that to your store presta has that option too. use facebook to share your products through your friends and ask them to share it to theirs and watch it spread.
Hi: Shopify.com is another way to promote your physical product also. Check it out and see if it works for you. Good Luck, Dan
Shopify is an ecommerce sales platform. Its not a way to promote your product. Google adwords, Amazon, Ebay and Craigslist are a few of the best options IMO.
