SteveLightspeed · 12-23-2004, 05:04 PM

Here are the questions posted so far that I intend to answer. I promised 100 questions, so I need 45 more! And no, I won't be answering questions asking about gross revenue, new worth, joins, rebills, active members or other $$$ specifics.

1) When will you discover a black lightspeed girl?

2) How did you happen across Tawnee?

3) Who is YOUR favorite Lightspeed Girl-ignoring the monetary value?

4) Are there any other girls with solo girl sites, you WISH was a Lightspeed girl?

5) How much was your initial investment in the company?

6) Do you have sex with your girls?

7) How are the girls paid? Flat rate or %?

8) what is yuor favorite color?

9) Would you like to join us for Dinner on the 4th in Vegas if you have no prior plans?

10) When will you guy be launching more gay sites?

11) You going to sponsor our webmaster events in Phoenix?

12) What ever happend to that AZN gal that worked for ya?

13) Is the teen niche becoming oversaturated?

14) What is the most profitable niche in the adult industry and why?

15) Where is Lightspeed Media going in the next couple of years, i.e., new technologies, models, ideas?

16) Thanks a lot Steve I'd like to take this oppurtunity out of your busy schedule (and mine) to ask a simple question since it relates to how I film. The question is, when you have a new girl do you pay her the day rate per shoot plus give her a % of the site? I ask because the single girl site I'm filming for and hope to be live soon I'm paying the girl per shoot money also giving her a % of the site. In the future I hope to pay girls either one or the other but depending on your answer it could be different.

17) whats ur best promotion secret?

18) How did you get started?

19) What's your favorite part of your job....besides the hot naked women around you?

20) Should I move to Arizona? Is it a good place to live?

21) What age did you become able to retire and not worry about money any more if you wanted to ?

22) How do you figure the Math for a good affiliate program without shaving? Figuring in the costs of operation, Model fees, Credit card % (Average 13 to 14% off the top of the signup) Employees etc. When it's all said and done what is the realistic % thats actually left. Also, since some of the check programs are now 50% off the top for a signup, how do you work them into an affiliate program?

23) Will you be adding hardcore solo girl sites?

24) Do exclusive modeling "contracts" really hold up?

25) What are you going to do with a site when it's model gets too looking?

26) What was the deal with Coconut Content? Why did you decide (at the start) to sell your content rather than keep it exclusive? Did you not understand the importance of exclusive content, or did you not forsee how successful your models would become? I'll understand if you dont want to answer 1 & 2

27) How go you manage to get it all done, and what tips do you recommend to others to succeed?

28) What is your compensation package for the girls that sign on for a solo website.

29) You going to do something special for your top 10 affiliates of the 2004 year?

30) In all seriousness. What would your suggestion be for a designer to catch the eye of a progam owner such as yourself? What do you guys look for in a designer?

31) Do you shoot bulk content of your girls in order to have peace of mind and efficiency for updates or do you have pre scheduled appointments with your girls on a recurring basis.

32) If you were starting from scratch with the intention of being the number 1 guy in any niche what would you need to have to get the job done. Example specific type of server with x amount of bandwidth, Nats, special scripts, photo and video equipment etc.

33) And my third and final question..... does it happen that some people join your sites ( usuaully that means they buy the full membership ) and they expect hardcore in your members area....and then they get upset? Isn't that an issue that can significantly increase refunds and charge backs in a softcore solo girl site like yours?

34) What is your biggest headache in this business?

35) Do you use DRM on your vids? If not why not?

39) What ideas do you have that you can share via icq that you don't have time to do?

40) What aspect of online marketing has given you the greatest return on your investment in terms of traffic and/or sales?

41) Good people are the lifeblood of any successful organization. How do you personally go about hiring good employees? Are there any "secrets" or "tips" (you've learnt over time) to hiring and retaining the best people?

42) What aspects of your business do you personally focus on? What areas do you delegate out?

43) How active were you in marketing your sites when you started? (was there an affiliate program from the beginning?)

44) How long did it take for your business to become profitable?

45) Were there any failures/losses/setbacks before your business started to boom?
