My break came by forming partnerships in the industry. There is no substitute for free advice from people with experience. I learned the majority from trial and error but I wouldn't give that up for the world. I have met some great friends and "celebrities" that I never would have doing the 9-5 thing.
If you are only here because you have $$ in your eyes, you will probably be gone by next year. To get you foot planted in this industry you will work an average of 10-12 hours a day. Shooting your own content expect to cough up 50K your first year for expenses, (add 10K for video and photo editing if you can't do it yourself and another 10K for web design, galleries, etc...)
Hope this helps

I can edit photos and videos on my own, I am also a pretty good designer so this should not be a problem..
Other prices: 3x Camera is arround $10.000, I think models charge $1000 per set, and some cameramen will work for "free" i think

, atleast at the begining..
As for shooting my own content, i think this will come later when i already have steady affiliates, members and gots to deal with new sites.
I would like to start with buying content for max. 2 niches and for each site arround 10 sets to start with, that's arround $400 if one set is arround $20.
Then I will start getting members and affiliates, maybe i'll get some big partner accounts and some big prizes for affiliates..
I definately think that 1-2 years is too much for me,.. I personally started in x biz 2months ago and I'm now on $200 per day AVG but I must say i've come from affiliate marketing and ecommerce business so I should have some knowledge from there, after all it's all about selling and conversions
From What I see NATS is the best program out there + you have that Carma plugin for fast content adding and also Sparta which is like "password trojan" with PaySite CMS 5, right?
So my plan is that:
1.) Get NATS, signup w/ ccbill
2.) Make 2 Sites -> Fulfill with content
3.) Get traffic and convert it
4.) Get Affiliates
5.) Start few sites with my own models
6.) Close first 2 Sites
7.) Focus on my sites and ideas
What do you think about my plan?
Best Regards
