Definition of a guru- A recognized leader in a field
Since I have helped develop several of the billing programs out there, taught classes on the billing companies, and have worked and trouble shot several billing issues for clients that have increased their sign ups by 25% at least in some cases as high as 65%. I believe that I qualify. I also have been asked to speak on at every major show for the last 2 years, not to mention I write for Klixxx and AVNOnline as well as for in the past for Netpond and a few other webmaster resources (mmm I believe that makes me recognized)

Do you have a commerical deal in place yet? But since you said you didn't think it would work I don't need an answer - wonder if you think it won't work because I sugguested it?

Dennis is the real deal then why not post who he is? Funny it says in your own rules no anon personal attacks - I believe Dennis was anon personal attack- Don't follow your own rules?
As far as I know I don't have any issues with the AMP. But if they would like to bring some up I'd be happy to discuss them.
Why shouldn't I care whether a long-time friend gets paid ?
The rest of your comments are just boring insults. They aren't humorous, and they aren't important to anything. They look more like lame attempts at winning an trivial argument because you have no real substance to fight with.

MikeAI -
I saw the commerical thing Melissa. I do not think it will work, BUT I am curious to see the results of those who do try it. Maybe my opinion will change.

Fair enough - wait and see attitude - but I'm looking at the number of eyeballs and the conversions :) I'm hedging my bets a bit.
Do you have a deal in place already?

Very good spots Melissa and sounds too inexpensive almost! How many spots are available ? What days ? What minimums ? Any rules with the Tours/URLs that are promoted ? Does it have to be clean (no popups, no hardcore) tours ? Any numbers regarding viewership during those spots and past results ?
Brujah
+++++++++++++++++++
Absolutely not going to ignore you -
Osirius is getting his money. Waiting on his phone call.
As far as the spots-
This is test market - so I would say let's keep it as clean as possible, as I believe it was Lensman said "The underwear stays on until the credit card comes out"
I'd like to keep that in the exits as well nothing way too hard core.
As far as the URL's the simplier the better, great for brandmarketing for example "www.strippers.com".
No day limitations 7 days a week. The hours are midnight to 6am (note I have E! as well and you can get spots during the re run of the Howard Stern show.
As far as the pricing goes - actually its about average for those times some cities are higher some are lower I just averaged the price to make it simple.
I'll have the exact demographics on each station for each area and average viewers by hour on Tuesday.
The production costs aren't too bad and very high quality.
Only thing I would sugguest is that you include a phone # as well (900 phone sex number) to capture some of the non computer people (can you believe there are still people like that out there?) I have some deals on that as well (I do try to cover all the basis)

Serge good thing I am here to pull you out of the failure spiral! hahaha
Melissa, we can restart this circular debate Tuesday...
I made an off the hand comment that has into 2 days of circular, boring, meaningless drivel. ( I apologize to those who have had to read it.)
MelissaD, just for the record.. I personally don't care who you used to work for .. and I don't care why you were fired. I do care that Osiris hasn't been paid yet :) But I'm sure that'll get squared away.
I only care about what deals you have that can be made. So, I hope that you don't ignore my questions below because urine streams need to be measured and compared. :)
If it means anything to you, anyone that says otherwise is a hypocrit. They continue to do business here with many people with their own skeletons and bad faith dealings.

What tough questions could I ask you Melissa? I really do not care, you hold no answers that I am interested in.
My point is that you are a self-styled Guru, who has an EGO without any foundation.
You post about magic bullet solutions in billing... and have yet to deliver. You have provided good excuses so far... So Tuesday we can revist this topic.
But I would lay down some good money that you do not deliver anything concrete - and that if it is concrete there are MANY strings attached to the solution.

Excuse me mike you might want to check your archives because I have posted lots of things I've backed up for example - checks are 3 time more profitable then credit cards, for example getting more sign ups out of you traffic, for example, the benefits of secondary processors. True I do post some fluff, mostly silly commnents about Meni or a joke I've heard so something like that, but who doesn't do that? Not every single one of your posts is of great discussion on a industry wide changes or affects. At least I participate vs. lurk. At least I make an effort to share and discuss topics that affect our industry.
Serge, I did not want to make Melissa's failures the issue here. I only wanted to point out that she is a bag of hot air.
But of you insist - her employment history I would consider another failure. Being fired from 2 jobs, including one she traveled around the world from would seem like a failure to me. ( Though she did successfully liberate some computer hardware! hahaha)
The only issue I am trying to focus on is having Melissa come up with something concrete - I guess I will have to wait for Tuesday.
I am just pushing for honesty in advertising, I hradly think "Nobody is better..." is honest as it pertains to Melissa.
Unless she means, Nobody is better at self promotion then me... ( I would still argue some others are better at that too!)

Melissa are you denying that you were fired from IBill???
How do you know Dennis is an anon?? Just because he is not a regular poster?
Why don't you address his questions rather then worry if if he is anon or not. This is what you do to me - you cannot show us the beef so you go back to smoke and mirrors.
Answer tough questions?? Heck no, not if you are Melissa- instead blame people, accuse people of being anon, or upset because of who I worked with.
MikeAI you obviously have a problem with me because of my past relationship with APM, get over it.
________________
Melissa D do you understand English? Did you go to public school?
I could care less about your relationship with the Aussies - hell some of them are the ones who told me how terrible you were as an employee. They also said the father thing is a red herring, that you were canned.
My issue with you is that you are a braggard who backs nothing up. I have no problem with people with EGOS - but only if they have earned them. In my opinion you have not. You are nothing but HOT - stale air.
Where is the BEEF Melissa?
You cannot and do not deliver - and when someone calls you on it you turn it into a piss, and blame others for your failures...

First lets just clear a few things up Dennis
1. I was premium account I handled sales, support, as well as worked with clients to develope new features, not to mention I developed and taught the first and only ibill Training program.
And look at lots of programs they don't have a secondary processor.
Dennis... how about identifying yourself, your affiliations, past businesses, current businesses, before starting rumors and such. what are you, deep throat? provide a little credibility and maybe someone will give you an ear.
you sound like a jilted lover, to tell you the truth.
As far as the hong kong hosting well the risks were very up front and funny thing several other people who are hosting there haven't had any problems

First of all Dennis (who is afraid to post anything but anon) I was not fired from Filthy I left to come back to the states and take care of my father.
Second I didn't steal anything - the laptop was returned last Oct.
Third as far as resources and webmaster etc. I haven't taken a thing nor would I, I don't do business like that.
As far as the hong kong hosting well the risks were very up front and funny thing several other people who are hosting there haven't had any problems
Bottom line is this - I don't have to prove anything to anyone except the people I do business with. MikeAI I've never done business with you, so how can you say I'm all smoke and mirrors?
Dennis I haven't ever done business with you either.
As I have said before no amount of goading will get me to give away my new solution until I get my fees established.
And as I have said before - I don't have to prove anything to anybody but my clients. I only post things on the board I can prove and provide stats and facts on unlike other people.
MikeAI you obviously have a problem with me because of my past relationship with APM, get over it.

MONEY!
*Increase conversions by at least 10%
Each sign up on a straight site is worth an average of $56.83 on a 100 signup/day site
10% = $568.30/day x 365 days = $207,429.50 annually
*By adding an appropriate secondary billing company increasing signups by at least 15%
15% = $852.45/day x 365 days = $311,144.25 anually
*Reducing chargebacks, refunds and revokes by at least 5%
*Optimizing traffic

Forest .. just got yer message.
Call me now if you still want to talk .. I have to be somewhere at 7.
OK, I've found him on another board. The moron of morons. The subject of his post was: Any Webmasters want to run your own high traffic site?
this is his first post:
I started a site called freehun.com, which has grown to about 1,000hits/day and is making a bit of money, but I need an experienced webmaster to help, that's why I started this thread.
I'm just wondering if there is any webmasters out there that know allot about adult site design and want to become partners in designing a high traffic TGP site. I would supply domain names, and an unlimited bandwidth host, plus content and traffic. I just don't have time to run the whole site, plus I lack experience in site design. That's why I need a web designer as a partner.
So leave me a message if your interested or have any questions.
PS. To people that are going to flame me about my domain name, please don't, because thehun is helping me change my domain name at the end of the month.
*******
but to fully enjoy the stupidity and the audacity of this guy, you need to read the entire thread. It just gets better and better.

Bottom line regarding Fays show or any other -- it is what you make of it -- I've been to some really pitiful gatherings over the years, no names, and all it takes is one or two people getting together and working out a deal to make it worth stopping by -- Fays job is to get the people to the show, not to make the deals for people.
