You asked for it.

It shows how the offline sectors of porn have been maximising their ROI on their product for years.

So much of online porn is only sold online. Few ventured to any other avenues for sales.

With all respect and it's not meant badly. you're not a "Playboy" level shooter. Yet if you had gone to PRO they would of taken at least one set of every girl you shot for their Readers Wives sections. With a sales to Escort and the same set selling to Club Confidential you would of made $400 from one set. do that every time you shoot a girl and her money is paid, get a pretty one, shoot 120 different poses and the right ones. You could of sold the set to those magazines for the main section. $3,000.

Then there was Galaxy in Whitham, Essex. Same deal, UK only. but a lot of mags.

Then Fantasy Publications, used to be part of Northern & Shell. Had "Amateur" magazines that would of loved your stuff. If you could just of tweaked it a bit.

The Goldstar.

You get the picture.

All you had to do was get on a train once, then every 6 months and your shoots would of been free and even profitable before they were online. Well after because you had to wait for publication. You get the picture.

I started in a time when there was nothing online, so had to. but every online shooter could of done the same, every sponsor buying content could of done the same.

If they had not got their heads tuck up their Internet asses.

Or the content simply was not good enough.

A real businessman looks around at how to maximise his ROI.
