Sorry bud. Simply do not agree.

If you have strong content, you do not need to have tours or give away 5-20 minutes of clips, nor try and convince people to buy. They see it for themselves.

On some of my membership sites, I have always shown the whole archive to non-members. They can see what is in there, and even come by daily for 24 hours and grab the new. After that, they have to pay. They click the archived, and get the join page.

Tube sites are just a movie driven version of that presentation. Which has served me well for YEARS. People are tired of being ripped off. Sites with little content. Never update. Promise you one thing, and do not deliver it. That is the reality of this industry. I have found it MYSELF when buying memberships to sites. That shit is cliche for a reason.

Sure, not EVERY site is like that. But I could probably name a half dozen off my head easily. The fact is that little thought is given to the end user, and it shows throughout this industry in the old pay site business model.

Good content that fills a niche or need does not need a sales pitch. People can see it themselves and do not need to be sold on how great your shit is. They see your site, the updates, the content, the descriptions, the models. They can make an informed buying decision without a pitch.
