Factors to include are:
I live in the Northwest.
I already own a professional camera and hd camcorder.
I already own some lighting but maybe upgrading that to maximize quality.
I already know CCbill processing is $750.
I also know that paying models depends on the model and the work being done and since Im a start up I would not be booking $1500 pornstars right away.
What does testing cost? on average?
If anyone could throw some figures at me I would really appreciate it.  |
Don't be such an idiot.
If you don't have the ability and brains to analyze your own business market, break down costs and project earnings, etc... then don't waste your time getting advice from a bunch of losers that have washed out at the bottom of the porn barrel.
99.9% of the people here are losers. Just take a look at how many 'posts' some of them have made, then you can see where all their time went.
Most spend hours and hours daily on this site because they have no businesses or their business has bottomed out and by posting here, they are part of some strange online group therapy where 'it's ok to be a loser, because everybody else is.' Misery loves company.
Do yourself a favor and don't listen to ANYBODY on this or any other webmaster blog.
Do your own homework and use your own brains. Taking advice from losers is not their fault, it's YOUR fault. And when your small business fails, nobody around here will give a fuck and in fact, will laugh at you for trying. Then you'll be able to join the ranks of GFY, bitching daily about, 'tube sites stole my sales' and 'the porn industry is dead.'
If anybody approaches you for any single thing, it's because your an easy mark and they want to sell you something. Traffic, banner spots, affiliate program sign ups, the list of shit goes on and on. Just get away from this board and these people and at least you'll have a small chance of creating your own business.
Wake up and get away from here now. In a few years you'll remember this and look back with a smile.
