How much would i be worth to your company as an employee?
 
I thouht this would be fun to see what other people think. I have no idea what my value as an employee would be since I have always been self employed.

I know i will get some " haha's $200 a week " but what do you think my value would be to your company? Please only those people who actually own a company comment. Assuming I would work 40 hours a week. I have been around since 1999 always worked for myself. I owned membership sites, helped affiliates, make good creatives, stuff like that. You would get the whole sig bit and i would continue to post on here and other boards. I would guess a rep / in charge of creatives (marketing and promotion) would be my best position. Also looking over your entire site and suggesting better way to do things, including new features, maximizing your traffic/ revenue.... coming up with no ideas for your company for new sites, etc..

So if i became available tomorrow what would my worth in the adult industry be?

Would i be too much of a liability to your bro status and you wouldn't want me ?

Paul Markham 01-06-2008 01:14 AM

I think you need to work on your CV a bit more. :)

Seriously you need to give us more info. Like what do you do today, do you still manage sites, if so show them, if not why not, we would need to see what ideas you have already to know if those ideas will work in the future.

Sansa 01-06-2008 01:14 AM

Such a vague introduction would def. require a portfolio.

yahoo-xxx-girls.com 01-06-2008 01:15 AM

I don't own a business as of yet... still working on it, but I would have to say if you are working for someone else professionally on an hourly rate; you could get around $20.00 - $35.00 if you are doing programming or promotions ( both on and off line )

If you are working under contract perhaps twice the amount...

But again I am just guessing...

Later,

knowing you from your past experience and seeing what you did with teamclickash, i would think you could easily be in charge of affiliate operations for a major porn studio and be making upwards of $80k/year

Domain Diva 01-06-2008 01:16 AM

Well I know my management has worked with you in the past and mentioned you,so based on that Im going to say $150-250k a year.

I only based that on the short brief I heard about a project they worked on with you,you could be worth 10 times more as I know they spoke very high of your skills.

WWC 01-06-2008 01:17 AM

Depending on the position and responsibilities you would take on....

AlienQ - BANNED FOR LIFE 01-06-2008 01:19 AM

If thats yer resume...

I would say you do not qualify for any job in the biz.

Maybe Jizz Mopper at the local porn shop.
Try that out:)

Turboface 01-06-2008 01:19 AM

I'm sure Zango would be interested in paying you money.

A maximum of 30% of what the company makes back with your skills/time.

Due 01-06-2008 01:35 AM

I wouldn't commit to a high monthly salary to pretty much anyone, but rather a minimum monthly salary + % of your client portfolio.
I want people to be self motivated, and I do not believe that will be the case if you receive a good salary regardless of your dedication to your work

buzzy 01-06-2008 01:35 AM

I personally think people are severly overpaid in this section of the biz. Not having a jab at you will, I just think it would be better to start a company or venture yourself rather than be at the command of someone else.

good luck.

Im not looking for a job. I would be taking a huge pay cut from what I make now. It was just human curiosity to know what I would be worth if I didn't work for myself. The only way I would take a job would be if i ceased making money on my own. Although I would be open to doing a little consulting work possibly in the future when i had more available time, for a short period of time if the money was really good.

hey thanks, btw I am not sure who your management is. Hit me up on icq if you have a chance, always nice to know who has nice things to say about you. Its mostly bros around here who think I work on webcam to pay the bills (DH) or the ones who think I have a day job (Lars) or that I m just a broke newb (Sleazy :)

I dont understand people putting others down the way they are in this board when all he did in his humble way ask a valid opinion from people here....man people are mean....will sounds like a cool cat!

Paul Markham 01-06-2008 02:01 AM

Here's some advice.

If you're in or near CA, get a list of all the top DVD suppliers, like Zane, Anabolic, etc and see which ones do not have a decent functioning website and not selling their content to or via content stores.

Do some research and then make an appointment to see them and pitch you running their web side. They are slowly realising their future is the Internet. They will come over and with your knowledge, their content portfolio, name and resources you have a very powerful program.

It is happening already and it will snowball. some will buy up the people, like Playboy, Penthouse, etc others will set it up themselves and others will take on people like you.

oh man don't worry about it, it was expected and to some degree is comical. If the people making the insults had any idea how much more i make then them i don't think they would be laughing.


If i had to take a job for whatever reason I would put together a professional resume, acutally use spell checker, and shoot for a VP of a large company or CEO of a small to med size company. About the only thing I don't have experience in is shooting content.

I am not trying to blow my own horn just curious what some of these guys make and what people actually think I would be worth to them. I see some of these clowns that bounce around from company to company from high up positions to site reps and I can't believe these guys make good money but I wouldn't be surpised if they do.

Are you a programmer will76 ?

As much as you bring in, minus 20-50%, depending on the circumstances.

To clarify, as much PROFIT as you bring in. :)

yahoo-xxx-girls.com 01-06-2008 02:20 AM

Actually will76 your question was a good one even if no one agrees... It seems that making money south of the border is easier then here in Canada and I to am wondering how much a webmaster starting off working for someone else makes yearly without much experience...

Wills a cool cat for sure but I still think he would make a good Janitor.

adult industry.


lets say all the skills to run a company, manage staff, work first hand with creative side from promos to site design, someone that actually knows what they are doing, that can make the business more profitable, from top to bottom and expand it. What would someone like that make ? and not 20% of what he brings in but salary + bonus for the person running the company.

yahoo-xxx-girls.com 01-06-2008 02:45 AM

Well I guess it depends directly on how much is coming into the business to start and how productive you are and what you have to offer to the business.

But I'm not sure what the going rate is... does anyone know what the starting wage for an adult webmaster would be?

Later,

It depends...... I try people and what they offer....be it processing, traffic whatever and I find that most in the industry excel at Pitching but fall way short on delivery. I go to shows and am constantly amazed at the free drinks crowd and the staff rotation between companies and the pitch pitch and more pitch.

To me, and I dare say to many others, someone who delivers is worth a damn lot.

V_RocKs 01-06-2008 02:57 AM

I think that if I had an affiliate program and I made $2K a day... and this was just the average here because if I was hiring you it would be like have two of me here and I would have already maximized the profits... I could see you adding about $500 a day to my program per quarter employed.

Hiring you would be a long term investment. I would probably start you at $75,000 + a bonus that would equal another $100,000 for every $500 a day you add. If you chose to continue after 3 to 4 years I would offer to add you in for a percentage.

V_RocKs 01-06-2008 02:59 AM

Of course this would be additional income I could directly attribute to your work. Your tweaking. Your mind. I would expect my program to also grow on its own. Probably only need you for 30 hours. Basically come in a few days to tune things so you can get back to your own shit.

No it's already happening. I don't have original ideas. Just copy others.

Was it not reported a few months back that the porn industry is loosing billions per year... is this true that there is a slow down and it is not as easy to make money in the porn industry?

scottybuzz 01-06-2008 03:55 AM

considering you make over a million a year (i think) i assume whoever hired you would have to pay you over that to take you away from your current position.

with all these 100k a years jobs and such, you would just turn it down.
(or someone in a similar position, who does want a job).

Wether you are worth that to a company, i dont know.

i read ASM's thread and was curious if i had to take a position how much would I make based on my experience and knowledge. Obviously if i ever had to take a position i wouldn't be making a lot of money or I wouldn't take the postion so they wouldn't have to pay me millions to lure me away. I also thought this would be fun to see who thinks I am worthless, know what i am doing, etc.

ok lets change this around then to make this simple. What do CEO's or VPs of medium to large size companies make in this industry? I have no clue if these people make 40K a year or 200K a year.

thanks for putting thought into it and explaining how you would come to that amount.

You would probably be worth 5-9k per month plus perks or commissions.

I know this was based off of my thread and I can not comment on my final total but its very reasonable to say it was not what I placed as my minimum.

An example would of been which I did get offers like this. 2k a month, 30 percent of all new affiliate sales, 15 percent of all current affiliate sales and a possible 25% ownership in the company if goals where met after six months.

I can only recall one or two programs offering anywhere close to my minimum.

Congrats Will76 - what a novel way to test your network :1orglaugh

As Paul alludes above, GFY is the confluence of all that is adult, and the most fascinating aspect of this thread is that Will76 will reach the people he set out to reach, but it may not appear so in the thread :winkwink:

For what it is worth, I don't know Will76 personally although Internext might be a good opportunity to change that, but what I hear from my network is that he knows his stuff...

Peaches 01-06-2008 01:29 PM

I would pay you $100 a week to clean my house :)

Sorry but that's all I need right now - I have my handyman (aka "The Husband I don't have Sex With") and a dog sitter.

You need 4WD and your own supplies. If you use my supplies, I'll pay you $75 a week.

(sadly, I haven't been able to find anyone to take me up on this :( )

hostile_anal_invasion 01-06-2008 01:43 PM

After seeing all of your retarded posts on GFY and now knowing that you have zero skills, nobody would want your stupid cash draining ass on their payroll.

You can "manage" a staff and give opinions on how to be "more profitable" what a fucking JOKE!!!!!

What makes you think you can do these things anyway (not that they are anything special)?


Stick to your self employed / janitor thing.

Just be sure that the IRS doesn't catch up to you, cause then it will be jail time for you! FUCK OFF WACKO!
