we are nowhere near making the money we should be making!
talk about fucking up an industry sector Well Done  |
translation... "i have to actually put in time now to make money and there are more serious competitors then 5 years ago. big business (tubes) are 'stealing' my customers and instead of developing sites and ideas on how to get visitors to convert to a customer, ill just sit around and hope big box adult store closes down."
How do you think those small town businesses feel when a WalMart comes in? most people sit outside of walmart and protest (as most here are bitching about tubes) while others come up with more creative ideas to keep customers. Sure, business isnt as easy as it was before with customers just walking in with money in hand, but they now have to actually try and use more tools, such as creative marketing, etc.
BTW, same people in mainstream bitch about how its 10x or 100x harder now then 5 years ago. No shit, there was a lot more smaller guys back then and traffic was a lot easier to convert then now.
