It will be interesting to see which TV stations run these commercials. I am sure the same people who run the Girls gone Wild videos would so it. Which is E! and Comedy Central. There could be some local channels you could run it on at off hours.

The problem is, there are a lot of do gooders who would create boycotts, start phone banks and other techiniques to force channels not to accept "porn" commercials.

I think the commercial was fine for prime time TV but I am hardly the normal consumer.

Another thing to think about is buying spots of TV. From what I understand when Girls Gone Wild first ran commercials they had to guaruntee so many spots and prepay. ( I think ti was up to $1 million in cash). So it takes some bank to get this going.

I remember Paolo from tripleX was trying to do something similiar for his campusfuckparty website ( or whatever the site was). I saw the commercials, they were very close to the GGW ones, and I think they would have sold well.

Not sure whatever happened with it. He might be a person to talk with.

Not here in Canada funnily enough.

20k and you were in.

The BITCH was getting a script etc etc etc to comply with there guidelines

Shit somewhere in storage I have all the researtdch on it.

my plan was pretty much a rehash of the old Pamela Anderson fan site of a few years ago.

Build a really tame Pamela Anderson site , lots og G pics etc etc , nice bio , some gushing shit about how hot she was. Get it listed everywhere cause it was nonadult........and then slip in ,hidden away a link to the video.

Worked like gangbusters.

Nice job!
Pam Anderson was on with Larry King I think last night. She was saying how she didnt make one penny off of that video.

I know several people that made a killing off of it...thru Maxcash.
One local here was selling the fucker on VHS. He tells me it was public domain. I told him he is one lucky motherfucker.

There is no new trick under the sun LOL

Just different angles ;-)))

How many times have you heard me say:
"Yeah , we were doing that in 99"
"Yeah Anthony and I came up with a similar idea in ..."

;-)))

In Los Angeles, a new variety rock radio station offering listeners everything from Classic Rock to 90’s Rock does not reveal on-air the lineup. Instead, they request you log on to their website and follow the streaming playlist.

Interesting?

The radio station is the main hub of the business platform, or so we would logically assume. But their vigilant push towards their e-based presence is very telling in another way.

Dave has the capital whereas most people do not. Capital is king in business. Starbucks is known for opening up operations near Coffee Beans and losing money with the intention of shutting down the competition. They knock the brands off the streets. They can afford to lose revenue on certain operations. Coffee Bean really can’t (or so I will assume for the sake of this thread). People cry about this on the news every night. The despair of one mom and pop pharmacy shutting down in Kansas for a Wal-Mart which hires 10 times more employees and offers benefits is viewed by the public as the gateway to hell.

It is a simple concept and one that I hope finally takes the inevitable “economist” shape. I open a car wash across the street from a resident car wash. I lower the price and offer a free oil change with every car wash. I break even and still eat every night. The car wash across the street shuts down. I buy the lot; open a laundry mat, etc…One or two others can move into the market and compete, but thousands simply can’t.

The Internet has a flaw in business philosophy and that flaw is continuously exposed and utilized in very self-defeating ways. Nick can have as much money as he likes, he can never prevent me from pillaging one sale a day from him. He can hardly prevent me from undercutting him via unsavory business practices. I have the ability to aspire to make one sale per day. What other medium allows this?

What Dave is doing is removing himself in an isolated fashion from this current, unorthodox business ideology and placing himself in more conventional territory. He is putting himself in the eyes of consumers that can’t completely be accessed by some guy harboring a few domains. TGP’s will not be purchasing this ad space.

Consumers hit Cyberage and Dave presents them with the Adult Internet. They see some trailers and free pictures and then they pay for a member area. That is how the Internet works right? You pay for a product? : )

Otherwise, the consumer hits the Internet, does a search, hits a site filled with $2000 content blowout and may or may not purchase. They could have hit a site with exclusive content not harvesting their emails. Business philosophy flawed.

Dave is just leveling the playing field. It will level itself independently some day. But as with everything, there are no guarantees.

If I want you to listen to my streaming radio station on a daily basis, I need to get you there first. Otherwise, the saturation of an open market will bury me.
