For over 10 years mainstream marketeers have eyed the porn industry’s ability to draw eyes and make money with minimal effort.

The recession and slow sales have had some companies resort to an eye opening wave of marketing and advertising to reclaim revenue.

In the last few days I believe this was crystalized by a music video filled with shameless product placement by  Lady Gaga and Beyonce.

A couple of years ago someone forwarded me an email with allegations that a content producer was not paying his models and being an all around cheapskate. I didnt really read the message in great detail but just reposted it asking Drity D aka Micheal Storm ..”Whats up with dat?”

I guess I should have read the email and the links a bit closer because hidden in there were links to his arrest record where he had been caught naked with some guys in an adult theater in tampa,florida along  with several models  complaining about how cheap he was and how they had ripped off.

Micheal Storm whined to me for months about how he was rich and how I was fat and broke when my concerned was if there was another cheap fuck in this business ruining it for the rest of us.

It seems in the end I was right.

Its not the tubes that have killed this business but instead its shady billing practices where processors allow customers to be banged out like a $5 whore on a Friday night.

While everyone has spent time distracted by tubes [which are a different problem all together] scamming programs like Pretty In Cash have quietly taken card banging and cross sales to a new all time low.

You have to see this review for yourself to understand how Pretty In Cash is using teengfs to con the consumer into extra charges.

Your a complete retard if your sending this program any of your customers.

Its no mystery why a consumer resorts to getting their jerk on at a tube site as your sales transition away.

This industry has lost its edge on new technology when it comes to dealing with social media.
Most self professed masters of the genre think that success lies in spamming your latest gallery or offer on twitter, facebook etc.

Then there are those that will tell you its a waste of time on cheap bastards with no credit cards while even others sit back as the new generation of cyber squatters register and control their brand.

This entry isnt to intended to be a debate.

Here is what happens when you hire someone that doesnt understand how social media marketing works.

Hypothetically you hire a social media consultant for a TV news station and give them access to a new electronic billboard bought to show off your techno savvy.
Your social media expert reads that you need to engage your audience – so they arrange this billboard to display a live twitter feed with the header RIGHT NOW ON TWITTER.

Both pretty impressive moves and nice bragging rights with one exception.
You hired some one that really doesnt understand social media marketing becasue they are LAZY and automate the the twitter feed until it displays a headline of
RIGHT NOW ON TWITTER with the caption
“3 accused of Gang Rape”

And on the left are your 3 smiling news anchors.

Congratulations youve hired a social media moron!

If your serious about hiring someone to do some social media work for you. Make sure you understand the concept first before making that hire.

Social Media Morons – Part 2

For the second time in a year porn 2.0 is featured on the web.
