So he's been here the best of 4 years and asks this question now?

Here's the only answer that's going to help and it's all questions.

Who are you planning shooting?
Where are you planning shooting?
What are you planning shooting? Niches, style, content, time frame, etc.
What experience do you have shooting?
What experience do you have shooting porn?
If you're shooting a friend, what are their feelings and your relationship?
If not please answer the following.

How would you deal with a model who wanted to do it their way and not yours?
How would you deal with a shy model?
How would you deal with a scared model?
How would you deal with a model who wants to bring a friend?
How wold you deal in that friend thought they were in charge?
How would you deal with a model who thins you're a dirty old man, even if you're young?
How would you deal with a model who thinks all guys want to do is fuck her.
How would you deal with a model who's so insecure she's worried you're not attracted to her?
How would you deal with a model who fakes it badly?
How would you deal with an experienced model who realises you're some newbie and just goes through the motions?

All these things can come up when dealing with people. A camera has a users manual you can turn to before you use it. People don't come with such a tool. You have to learn as you go along. Lie the rest of us did.

I have nothing to lose if you shoot or not.

I am not asking advice on how to shoot content, I am asking advice on how to monetize the content.
Answer should be straight forward, like few people already mentioned, examples of good answers to original question:

3 - when you reach $1000, thank me.
