When I started out in adult in 95 or 96, my credit was blown (ex-wife killed it dead). Once I started to make some porn money, I used it to get a "secured" credit card with a low limit (I put 2k in a fixed term deposit for the bank to issue you me a $1k credit card). I used that card like mad, every month running it up and paying it down, over and over for a two year period.

At the end of the two year period, they gave me back the term deposit and upped the credit limit to $5k. I haven't looked back since.

Take care of any and all outstanding issues. Use whatever create you have and hit your marks for a couple of years. Ask the companies you have good credit with to extend it. Over time, things turn up good.
