They do real market research. We follow what others do.

They engage advertising agencies to look into places and how to advertise. We don't.

They have departments researching the products, refining them, tasting them, getting them to the best they can be. for the price. We decide to shoot teen porn and go out and find the cheapest supplier possible with little idea how to guide him to make a decent product.

Product design, is something marketing departments are heavily involved in. To make sure they design the right product. Most in online porn don't have a clue what the word means. Many think product design in teen is anyone who looks under 22. And in MILF anyone who looks over 30.
