Whether you're distributing to testers, distributing a finished app yourself (for a Mac app), or distributing it via the App Store, the way you create a build to distribute is to create an Archive via the Product menu.

This contains not only a Release-configuration build of your app, but also symbol files you can use to symbolicate crash logs, and it separates the "build my app" step from the "generate a signed app for distribution" step.

Once you've created an archive, select it in the Archives tab of the Organizer window; you will then be able to press a Distribute… button to generate an installer package or a .app bundle to use, possibly signed with a distribution certificate so users know who it's from and so it can take advantage of features requiring code signing.

I don't really want to pay all that money to submit stuff to the app store unless my programs get much larger or do more and I know for a fact a lot of programs for the mac are not in the app store.
