I dont know many models that will turn down 5-10k softcore work which is enjoyable and basically a paid vacation somewhere sunny. it doesn't take me very long to find a model when i am hiring, maybe a week. and those are very high standards.

I also feel giving a large up front lump sum attracts the better looking models. its easier to convince a girl than, 'hey i run porn sites, want to do it all for free and i promise money from it when it makes some?"

only model i've done a partnership with is hailey leigh as she was in the industry prior and she wasnt going to leave the business for years, she also lived a few blocks away from me so it all made sense

but you can see why even a 3k a month site, making 36k a year would be very nice and profitable, all you need is a location for a week or two, a camera and a model. you dont even really need an editor or any other costs since solo fans do appreciate the unedited real stuff
