I've been giving serious thought to the idea of offering free soup with every paid sign-up.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:thumbsup

You gonna xsell the breadsticks?

1. Superior ,new out of the box ideas

2. Superior ,new traffic sources ...taking advantage of twitter and other growing social networks.

3. Niche.

4. Diversity

5. Enough cash flow to see out your ideas.

Luck is always nice too :winkwink::thumbsup

Just my 2 :2 cents:

:thumbsup

Thanks Captain and First Mate of the U.S.S. Obvious

In hard times, it's usually just doing the simple things right that keep you successful.

People often think that in hard times you have to reinvent the wheel and come up with wacky new ideas, but honestly the time to reinvent the wheel is during boom times. Focus on a quality product, giving the customer what they want and can't get anywhere else, and promote it the best you can and you will do just fine.

I think that is sort of what you are saying, I just put a little spin on it.

And as the old saying goes, I'd rather be lucky than good any day of the week. :)

That was a question in O.P. champ. We are waiting on some wisdom.
:winkwink:

Good feedback. :thumbsup

whats hot and happening

This thread reminded me of a saying l heard once .....

"If you see a bandwagon ...youve missed it ! " :thumbsup

Agreed.
:2 cents:

Another sales pitch?

No bitch, a question.

Maybe you'd understand the difference if you were not a fake nick troll.

:2 cents:

1. being innovative.

questions end with "?" mark. Find one here homo.

It's implied here bitch.

Seems everyone else in the thread understood it easy enough, except the stalker troll.

Piss off back to your theadultbiz.

:2 cents:

To succeed in the adult biz I need:

1. A work ready environment (working on it)
2. 8-10 hours a day of serious work without having friends, family or the annoying telemarketer disrupting my schedule (fucking hard to accomplish)
3. A serious amount of Redbull + Beer (in stock)
4. SuccesssSS!!!! (+ a very intriguing headache ...)

Same applies in mainstream as well :)

sounds like every other year :2 cents:

6. Content security. Working on better ways to deliver content to customers while attempting to prevent it from being stolen...ie DRM
7. Cost cutting. Find ways to reduce overhead without sacrificing quality.
8. Quit partying so much. :disgust

less posting on gfy

You need to give it up.

Too many complaints and excuses.

Good One... LOL

bigger tits = bigger sales. :thumbsup

No no it should be a hidden xsell... make them think they got it included for free... :thumbsup

Luck for the most part...

Awesome :thumbsup:thumbsup

& big balls :)

Yes, and the billing descriptor will be "ATM FEE"

Time - No matter how good your shit is, you need time to build up traffic, sales and rebills.

Cash - Because of part 1 above, you need cash to get you thru this time.

and

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh now thats funny:upsidedow

My list looks more like:

1. Traffic
2. Traffic
3. Traffic
4. Traffic
5. Traffic

:2 cents:

Those are good :)

In all honesty the whole thing about "thinking outside the box", "bigger better mousetrap" and "adapt or die" is sort of all BS. The few people who manage do any of that can hit it big or fail miserably. The rest of us just sort of work at what is working and make money that way. Boom times are easier. I have often thought a person should make their cash just following booms.

it always helps to be well hung

Well Cyber Claire has been here so all that smart stuff has naturally already been said.

Otherwise, Fuzebox knows.

I knew someone would say it.

Now we just need Markham to come in for the content side.
:winkwink:

You all seem to forget about the philosopher stone in marketing...
"You may not like my methods, but you'll surely know my name!"

You know that Coca Cola and Pepsi exist, but you are probably not aware of buzz cola, tab and lots of more drinks that are exactly the same or very similar to coca cola or pepsi. Not to mention that you probably wouldn't even know where to buy anything else than coca cola or pepsi... Think about that :)
