You can use both Sold/would sell in this context.
If it was sold, you must use `made'.
If it was would sell, you can use both `made' and `make'?

He makes a lot of money = [simple present] [makes not make]
Generally, He makes a lot of money by doing that.
He made a lot of money. [simple past]
In the past he did that which he may not continue now.
