Although some might say the non conform part of the job is good, it's rather annoying to me at times.

I never wanted to be in this "industry", but I was just so overwhelmed and fascinated by the potential I saw, that I applied directly to the main investor and climbed the ladder ever since, four week ago I practically took over control over the joint, which is a huge challenge for someone in my age, but so far so good and the results are there.

I remember my main goals during the interview at that time were:

a) rebuild the whole online from the scratch to be accessible for the best market out there - US and to affiliates (in progress, bigsisterlive.com plus new sponsor program first term of announcement this May)

At this point, US and CAN is already dominant nationalities among the members of bigsisterlive.com.

b) get the content to TV networks - not easy at all, not bad money, but tough to close them, very much closed company and plenty of clientelism,

so far deals in Italy, UK and Ireland, finally seems that I also found an experienced and reliable person, to help with licensing in US and in general, as I want to totally focus on online.

Numbers are the only thing that matter now, and the moving part is rather annoying, not that many business people you would consider totally trusting after those years too.

So, in the ideal case, I want to grow this to add on value (which I totally believe in, as the proliferation of the free general porn is a competitive advantage to our product), then be a part of the selling process (not this easy because it's a real estate and complex etc., of course I'm not the majority shareholder) and dedicate myself to something, that I always wanted to do - mainstream entertainment.

I'm actually launching my first review network with not too popular, but interesting movies/ music / books review sites in May as a first step and as a reference.

As crazy and totally non financially interesting this may sound, I already have a plan how to mix making money out of the super pop music that's in vogue, and at the same time to support say not "good" as it's entirely subjective, but in any case not over promoted music.
