Default Re: I don't take a ride with anyone that I do not know.

OK, I'll play your silly little game

Quote:
-Where are you from? Where have you lived?
Even though my brother and I were both born in the midwest (me - Ohio, he - Illinois) we were born of Southern born and raised parents and I've lived in the South since I was 4.

Quote:
-What do you do in the Adult industry?
Webmaster support, few free sites

Quote:
-What other jobs have you done outside of Adult? Which of those jobs (if any or all) molded you for what you do now?
Pretty much everything. It's taught me what I do and don't want to do when I grow up

Quote:
-Name 5 people (if you can) that you would still interact with and why if you were to leave the Adult industry completely?
Honestly, I'd probably still interact with everyone I interact with now except for the noob who just signed up from his dormroom on his AOL account and wants to start making selling porn through WEG Oh, and Gabe. I only deal with him because I'm forced to

Quote:
-Is there anyone you wish were eliminated from the industry?
Yes.

Quote:
-Who in the industry do you believe does not get enough credit for what they do?
Not so much "getting credit" but there are a lot of people in stealth mode who make a ton of money in this biz. I give them credit for being humble

Quote:
-How old are you?
43

Quote:
-Are you married? Significant other?
No - unless you include the dogs.

Quote:
-What services do you seek out? In other words, are you always looking for content, designers, payout promotions?
I make Cory do the dirty work

Quote:
-What services do you provide and why are your services something everyone should use?
Incredibly well converting sites with even better support.

Quote:
What services / programs / host / designers / etc., do you recommend? People / services you use.
List is too long

Quote:
-Do you see yourself in this industry in 1 year? 5 years?
In 1 year, yes. In 5? Doubtful.

Quote:
-Where does your handle come from?
My first domain was southernsluts (let it lapse a couple of years ago) and I wanted something "southern". Peaches was the best I could do.

Quote:
-Have you ever worked for / owned another adult program / service?
I worked for CE when I started back in 96/97 for 18 months. Worked only for myself until last spring when I started with WEG.

Quote:
-Do you enjoy talking business on the phone, or would you rather keep things limited to icq / email?
ICQ/Email

Quote:
-If you were given 1 million dollars tax-free today, what would you do with it?
Get crazy with 10%, put 20% in a low risk account and buy property with the remaining 70%

Quote:
-Do you consider $1000 a lot of money? Why or why not?
No - it doesn't cover my monthly mortgage

Quote:
-If you were to submit a business proposal regarding the infrastructure of a new affiliate program, what is one portion of that proposal that would stand out? In other words, what would you consider the single most important feature that would make or break your program?
Exclusive content

Quote:
-Do you think TGP people lie about the numbers? Is TGP traffic a goldmine, or is it worthless?
Never really delved into it enough to give an educated answer.

Quote:
If you provide a service, can you offer people in this thread a deal?
1/2 price on my free anal!

Quote:
What are you working on now personally, both adult, non-adult, as an employee or owner?
Webmaster support and going back to school. Have pretty much ignored my freesites until 2257 gets decided on.

Quote:
What are you good at?
Meeting people and getting along with different "kinds" of people.

Good idea, Cory! And, SEE SIG!!

Default Re: I don't take a ride with anyone that I do not know.

I'll take a shot at this.

Quote:
-Where are you from? Where have you lived?


Born in Hartford, CT. Lived in Colorado, Kentucky and for the past 17 years, California.

Quote:
-What do you do in the Adult industry?


I'm primarily a writer of erotic stories, but I also build freesites.

Quote:
-What other jobs have you done outside of Adult? Which of those jobs (if any or all) molded you for what you do now?


The longest job I ever held was a volunteer for the PTA while my children were in school.


Quote:
-Name 5 people (if you can) that you would still interact with and why if you were to leave the Adult industry completely?


It has been my sad experience that leaving the adult industry ceases interaction with those still in it.


Quote:
-Is there anyone you wish were eliminated from the industry?


I choose not to have thoughts like that. They're counter productive.


Quote:
-Who in the industry do you believe does not get enough credit for what they do?


Writers.


Quote:
-How old are you?


51. .


Quote:
-Are you married? Significant other?


I've been very happily married for 26 years.


Quote:
-What services do you seek out? In other words, are you always looking for content, designers, payout promotions?


Content and payout promotions.


Quote:
-What services do you provide and why are your services something everyone should use?


I write erotic stories and text. I do it well.


Quote:
What services / programs / host / designers / etc., do you recommend? People / services you use.


The only "services" I choose to have my name associated with are Written Temptations and the Oprano Lounge.


Quote:
-Do you see yourself in this industry in 1 year? 5 years?


As I didn't see myself back in this industry a mere two months ago, I can't answer that question.


Quote:
-Where does your handle come from?


The name was given to me by my employer in a phone sex company. It makes a good pen name, as I write both straight and gay erotica and it's an ambisextrous name.


Quote:
-Have you ever worked for / owned another adult program / service?


Oh, my yes. List available on request.


Quote:
-Do you enjoy talking business on the phone, or would you rather keep things limited to icq / email?


I prefer the telephone.


Quote:
-If you were given 1 million dollars tax-free today, what would you do with it?


Enjoy the expression on my husband's face for a long time.


Quote:
-Do you consider $1000 a lot of money? Why or why not?


The answer to that has been different at different times in my life. At the moment, I have two children who need to move to a bigger apartment and need a hand...a larger hand than that.


Quote:
-If you were to submit a business proposal regarding the infrastructure of a new affiliate program, what is one portion of that proposal that would stand out? In other words, what would you consider the single most important feature that would make or break your program?


n/a


Quote:
-Do you think TGP people lie about the numbers? Is TGP traffic a goldmine, or is it worthless?


That is really too vague a question, considering the number of TGPs out there and "TGP People."


Quote:
If you provide a service, can you offer people in this thread a deal?


Yes.


Quote:
What are you working on now personally, both adult, non-adult, as an employee or owner?


Writing more erotic stories, building freesites and wondering where I'll get time to go back to my novel.


Quote:
What are you good at?


Writing. Remaining cheerful when no one in their right mind would remain cheerful. Making people laugh. Writing sentence fragments when necessary.
