Do you have backup plans on what to do if this industry stops being profitable for you? Have you already planned out your exit from this industry, or perhaps your early retirement?

In ANY business it's a good idea to have an exit strategy. Life doesn't always cooperate. Grocery store owners whose town gets invaded by Walmart, industries that come tumbling down, products that are made obsolete by new inventions - you never know what tomorrow will bring./(bb|[^b]{2})/Comment

Yes I have that planned out. Have invested in many assets that are offline. Not because I feel the industry will stop being profitable. More just about when I may want to get out, if I perish and my wife wants to get out, or if the workload becomes more of a liability compared to the amount of money it produces over a long period of time.
I think all good business plans should have a possible exit strategy. Some plan on selling them off for instance.Comment

I thought of this a few years back and started up my own printing business. That industry is getting worse too now, hehe. I guess things change and you simply have to adapt. I'm probably going to sell everything in a year or two and try something else. Both industries have been good to me over the years, but it might be time to move on before I start putting in more than I take out.80% Revshare or 30$ PPS on $1 trials: 200 Niches = Vidz.com Galleries / FLVs / Embeds

it mustn't be exit strategy, it must be new term strategy, unlike most people here what i understand from branch industry is the whole interweb itself, so if one side got shitter, i would like to turn my stuff to an other direction.
i like computers/internet, i like this business, i like online moneymaking, so i wish these online businesses lasts for ever and we can stay long enough in it.Comment

i would never leave the business, well maybe me personal but never my company, i would rather take some one on to do my job and take a cut im my pay check, which is then still ok. But having back up of what so ever is good. I am not sure what mine is going to be. I am still young and business is going great.skype: codercarlosComment

For all intents and purposes I am already retired, and have been for over 10 years now, at least from my former employment. But since I am not yet drawing income from my retirment fund, RSP's, and other investments, choosing instead to leave them alone and let them grow until I'm well into my 50's, I do this as an income supplement. Along with income from rental propery and a few other sources I have in place I'll continue to do so (ie: run an online business) as long as it suits me.
In fact, as long as there is an "internet" in one form or another and a means to earn income from it I can't see myself ever quitting. Automate yes. Find ways to free up time from it, absolutely. But I see no reason to ever take down sites that are making money, even if those sites eventually make very little. A little income is still income.Promote Wildmatch, ImLive, Sexier.com, and more!!

Im going to have to say, I agree with so many people in this thread.
From the top, I agree Sleazy and libertine as you shouldnt be thinking about an exit but maybe if anything goes wrong in life as you can never say never.
There is nothing thinking about the future & what ifs though. The people that are not prepared for a fire get burnt!
You should always think about what if, similar to buying life insurance or writing a will.
I am planning to move to Spain no matter what, however, Im hoping it is with Natalie, my partner & with this home here in Bournemouth still in my holding for parties held every month & for my return every month or so. My business shall always continue with no retirement, I see nothing wrong with the good Hugh Heffner.
I think where you went wrong was stating " If your business closed" I agree with Loki apart from the light wont be turned off, Loki & I shall need the light on to continue working.Comment

The internet is always growing and making new ways to make money online, this industry (internet, not just adult) will out live not only us, but our grand children.... That's if the world doesn't end on 2012, and if so, nobody will need an exit strategy, because I'm pretty sure John Cuesack won't share his plane with us... Fucking bastard!

after over 10 years in this industry i've realized you have to be ready to jump from one thing to another when the one stops working. some people are able to ride the same boat all the way to shore but not many.you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day..Comment

LOL... if the business EVER stops being profitable??
Why are you so scared??? I mean.. if you are doing 10 times less now than in 2004, just be a man and say it... Anyway, you are giving exactly that impression in your message.
You opened this message to give an impression of someone who is still doing fine, when you are NOT... And it's clear.... So, it didn't work.

Mainstream overtook adult for me about 5 years ago, and I stopped putting any significant time in adult shortly after that. By now, I've also stopped spending significant time on mainstream, since med school is taking up most of my time.LOL... if the business EVER stops being profitable??

These days, all I get from adult is a bit of passive income - only a few thousand dollars a month. If adult disappeared tomorrow, I'd hardly notice

Dude: I have NO idea what the fuck you just said but it sounds cool as shit. or, even better, cool-ass shit. Thumbs up!!Originally posted by Jesus H ChristTrue. I clued in to something interesting about 19 months ago and chased it down and was surprised on what I found. I'll give hints. Normally it's a good thing when SE's bot crawls your sites. I was pissed when Cuil kept crawling my smaller servers/sites and the bots were relentless hitting hourly even 404's and a few times shutting down the server. I was like what the fuck do they have to gain from this?. Then spin3r started across all my sites and then I started to get Corporate bots from well known companies in my niche. Then it hit me, my niche/sites are not alone in this and (the hint) why are they data-mining?
I got a smile on my face and never looked back from there..
