I'm sure it negatively impacts some people. Others will just go elsewhere. Ultimately, people can waste their time chasing around programs and trying to convince them to work with you, and give you what you need, or you can just work with those that actually want to work with you and not waste your time. Indeed, time is money.

Frankly, and I've said this for a few years now, if people are not already promoting CherryPimps, and they have pornstar traffic, then they are leaving money on the table. Cherry Pimps, in my opinion, is the absolute best program in adult right now for pornstar traffic.
Could not agree more. We are talking about the same thing here. It is fair to say: "listen, we want to work with such and such types of business", instead of wasting their time.

Don't want somebody onboard - just be straight forward and say it. Your business, your rules. So, yes, you are right.

To be honest, I have never had to ask for any help with Cherry Pimps, since everything is already there, in the affiliate area. I had some nice results with them, so I can recommend their affiliate program.

What I've also noticed is that there is some fresh blood lately, some very smart guys entering this business from mainstream. Usually one man operation. And it's a real pleasure talking to them.
