The jizz biz is like a bunch of crows sitting on a fence... When one crow flies to another fence they all follow him.
Oh and just because I'm such a wonderful sweet guy I'll let give you a bonus secret.
I keep my ears open and pump others for information.
That way I know which fence the crows are going to sit on.

You're learningthe lesson I learnt in the 80s. Don't share the secrets of your business with the rest of the flock, later don't bounce the threads sharing the secrets of your business with others.
Now I can reveal those secrets because the market is in decline and I'm retired.
Find new attractive models who have done zero modeling before. Shoot them in the poses the magazine editors prefer, thiscan be done by scanning the magazines. Shoot cover shots for front pages and full page spreads. Shoot good IDs and get a good model release, visit editors at least once to introduce yourself and ensure they see your work. Once published in a couple of magazines all editors will put your work to the acceptable pile.
Doing this opens the door to a market that paid up to and above $3,000 per set for licensing around the world. Thus covering all content costs including costant updates, something not to be turned down. For content sellers a real boost to their business.
The affiliate business is an easy lesson to learn, just Google "How to make money as an affiliate".
