The sell first then order can be great, unless there are issues with the order, then it becomes a nightmare to say the least. Order then sell is a bit riskier since you don't know precisely how quickly they'll sell. With this in mind my preference is smaller orders more frequently, so I am not sitting on product, and if I begin sitting on product I can put it on sale and get rid of it quickly.
