300 pissed off AshCash affiliates...
This 300 spot sponsored by: http://www.wojfun.com/sig/banner.php |
We've had our differences Mutt...but I am truely sorry to hear about this mess :Oh crap
|
I tell you what this sounds like, and this is comming from soeone who gets emails from guys all day long for the last 8 years of doing this, but dont take it wrong.
the way you say things and what you say sounds like you were infactuated with her. You either had a relationship with her or wanted one. Everything you say is about her and how you want her to do so good and you get upset if you thought she was going to sink herself, and it was not over money because you were not paid, so it sounds like there were some serious issues you may have had with her. Not healthy in a business relationship...but then it was not really a business relationship since mutt was not paid paid. this is just an outside obervation, not ment to ruffle any feathers. Quote:

Ok, I have wasted a lot of time reading this thread, and I still can't figure out what the fucking problem is and why it can't be worked out.
1. Find a solution so those that joined through CCBill can continue to be rebilled and affiliates get their cut. 2. Ashley pays Mutt for design, and all content he owns and continues to use it so that the site stays up. 3. Ashley gets off of her sweet little rump and attends her cam shows without fail and any other obligations she has with members and keeping in touch with affiliates. 4. If she has not learned HTML and photoshop and has no desire to do so, she can hire and HTML jocky for XXX $'s a month to keep her site updated. 5. Ashley should pay Mutt a certain amount over a period of time for the work, time and expense he incurred getting her program up and running. 6. Ashley is a smart girl and needs to put herself on a schedule just like any other "job". Her site *is* her job and it is very easy to always say "tomorrow I will do more, next week will be much better". All of us webmasters I am sure have been through that, it is hard to stay motivated...and you need to learn to treat it as a job...doing it when you don't feel like doing it. Mutt: I understand what you were trying to do for her. No excuse for her not shooting content. I can see her disinterest in the HTML/photoshop...it certainly is not for anyone. Many business owners hire that work out, and it is not a "bad" thing if she does, nor is it irresponsible. Not getting content shot is irresponsible though as well as ignoring affiliates and not cancelling cam shows. Ashley: Very few girls your age can make the kind of money you have been making at your age. Hell, very few make it at any age. Life is short, time flies and opportunities do not last forever. Time to sit down, get yourself a schedule and stick to it. You will not believe the relief you will feel when you stop avoiding the things you need to do and just "get them done and out of the way". Hell, you can spend one weekend a month shooting content like crazy that will be enough for updates for the entire month. Farm out what you are not good at or not interested in. Things like cam shows etc. are only once a week or so, they are quickly over and keeping your members happy keeps your income high. *YOU* are the business, market yourself well and learn from your mistakes and don't make them again. |

zero interest in Ashley on my part 'that way' - is she adorable? yes. cute? yes. I will dump 14 months of ICQ with her - I treated this girl more like a daughter than anything else. A daughter who behaves badly. By the time the site launched and was doing well but she was doing even less and less my WISH was that she would find somebody in this industry as a BF - a BF who would understand that this is a job, a business, just like any other business in a mall or an office building. I hoped it might even be my photographer John - there was some chemisty there. theory is wrong. |
Two issues here:
1. Mutt's committment to this girl. That I don't care about, up to him if he wants to be that guy who hopes on a star that someday the girl gets JUST drunk enough to let him bang her. That's his deal. What he did was charity, the reasons for which are purely his own. Likely it was for ass, which is a shame. You should have thrown him a bone Ashley, it wouldn't kill you and you'd likely own his ass after. 2. Ashley Brookes fucking her affiliates out of $$$. Now that is insane, and with no real background in marketing/advertising/promotion to fall back on (nor the funds to do run a true multi-level campaign), she'll never get back to whatever level she was at in terms of gross rev a few months ago. Crazy, but a good lesson for her. Next time, before pulling the plug and thinking "I'm hot, I'm special, I can turn any site into a gold mine, screw this" I'm sure she'll instead say "Shit...how can I work this out..." :1orglaugh |

Someone else will just take her money and she will be in the ssame boat over and over. I can see how Mutt tried to help her succeed. From what I have learned in the past is I only help people I see put in the time and those who have the Drive to suceed.. 1 out 0f 50 of my friends actually can take the bull by its horns and are now Successful |

Totaly agree with "people don't respect what they don't have to earn" |
Man, get this shit over with.
This little girl is a spoiled little bitch. Sell her your content for a really high price and let her do what ever the fuck she wants. DONE AND DONE. |
i'm almost done with this thread. There are THREE - count em - THREE people in this industry who REALLY know Ashley - and BradM ain't one of them. There's me, Aron Simpson and John Emslie. That's it. Aron and I posted here - John spent a total of 15 days alone with her - the second half of that time in his home and studio - I had to spend the next 2 months repairing that relationship because I thought she might be needing his help again. And of course 2 days ago - she did.

I'm Old school and it has to do with respect.. Don't sell her the content let her do it on her own so she understands its not easy. Everyone wants to be a star or get rich if they reach that goal they fuck whoever helped them to get there. All I have to say to those people is :321GFY |
Interesting to note - ashley has NOT posted shit to this thread after the 2nd/3rd page.
I got this email and thought WTF? Now after reading 7 pages of a thread and still having nfi wtf went wrong I will NEVER EVER promote Ashley again. |
Quote:
You do need to change your sig though :winkwink: |
Don't worry maybe she'll follow the 2005 GFY business model, do fan signs every 2 weeks and webmasters will promote.
|
I can't believe how people are jumping all over Mutt in this thread...... Am I the ONLY one who remembers a site called Nikki Nevada? Mutt didn't send me any emails today telling me to take down my links.

Ashley can't do weekly cam shows or create a constant webmaster presence for her affiliates. Without a webmaster, she is done. This is just another prime example of why help/handouts do not work.
By the way, Mutt, next time you're looking for a webmaster/boyfriend for a cute model... give me a ring. ;-) |
Hi everyone

Someone called her a c*nt amongst other things. why would she return to the thread? Her affiliates know how to get in touch with her. GFY is not a mandatory requirement for her. |
Ashley, if you're even reading this, here's another vote to figuring out something for all the ccbill affiliates.. politics/opinions aside, it's a PITA to remove links and add new ones, and in most cases adding new ones won't happen after all the old ones are removed. But for the affiliates that are already pushing with CCBill urls, they don't have to do anything and you capitalize on all the work we've put in.

Ashley has "that look" that sells. "That Look" never ever has a tough time finding whatever it needs to get whatever it wants. A gorgeous young girl has complete power over men. |

KRL - you have no idea how much work is involved in her little niche and how competitive it is - and why I kept on her almost daily to keep in touch with her affiliates and build stronger relationships with them. those who know ......... know. the girl will never recoup what she had - not doing softcore she won't. its what i warned her about 100 times or more - 'this is a once in a lifetime financial opportunity for you .................' i'm the guy who got her an exclusive contract offer from Penthouse magazine - that contract was worth a tenth of what she could be making if she had the drive and work ethic. |
FUCK! I just put up new links this morning. :(

Why is it so hard for GFY people to believe, that people help people without expecting sex or money in return. KARMA I have gave advice to several people in the industry, and have NEVER asked for anything in return. Niko, can vouch for me on this. I seen all this coming from day one, but I think Mutt not did it to help, but also lost a ton of money, that was to be re-paid. I know he never wanted a percent, or any cash, (beyond what was a loan), or a relationship. As far as I know Mutt has never even met Ashley. I do know, that Mutt has pinned Ashley's character as exactly as the person she is.... Got Gauge aka Aron Simpson - owner TNACASH/NikkiNevada.com __________________ |

But you have to acknowledge, young girls are just that, young girls. No disprect to Ashley, but to expect a lot of business wisdom from a 22 year old, Mutt, is ridiculous on your part. Come on. 22? Most entrepreneurs don't get all their experience down til their 30's if they started in their 20's. So I've been there done that and realized not to expect anything back when you help out young girls. |

The moral of the story?
Keep your bitches in check. :thumbsup |
so mutt you have never met ashley in person?
|
Not sure Ashley if you can understand how much problems removing the links are to some webmasters.
I shall not promote you from now on. Not because I am being nasty, but simply as I do not have the time to mess about. |

ok. I cant read anymore of this. But I have to say this to those of you who are suspect of Mutt's motives.
Mutt has done a ton of everything for me as well- for nothing! Including (from a very long list) designing an entire site for me as well. I was staggered by the amount of work and patience he offered as I watched this Ashley saga unfold. It amazes me still that I had to come to the porn industry to find people with this kind of character. This was a staggeringly bad business move on Ashley?s part. Mutt, talk to you later. You are a DUDE! Thanks for everything. |
