    Getting into porn industry. Need your advice.

    Hey guys I need your advice. I'm starting in the adult industry - on the business side, not as an actor or producer - mainly to learn more about the industry and the business. What are the top 5 adult companies to work for? Hustler and Playboy comes to mind as they're both well established companies with proven track records. But I would also consider companies like Voyeur Media and Lethal Hardcore.

    I'd like to hear from people close to the industry.

          Gotta agree with jdavis, its pretty hard to get hired onto a bigger company unless you know your stuff. Welcome to the industry, and good luck!

              It depends on the niche you want to work in. Playboy is good if you want tasteful nudity. Hustler is great of you want more erotic. Wicked Pictures is good if you want to work in XXX behind the scenes. First thing you need to learn is there are different levels of adult. Also most of the big companies are not going to hire you unless you know what you are doing.

                I know a lot of factors make a company the "best" or one of the "better" companies to work for. But lets say based on reputation, and quality of products.

                          If I had all the answers already, I wouldn't be on GFY. Apparently you don't have a clue either.

                          BTW, is Taco Bell hiring?

                                  Content site has been down for years. Too much bullshit. I deal directly with people these days.

                                      So, as a producer you do EVERYTHING? All the contracts, bookings, marketing, public relations, etc. You're amazing!

                                          If you are wanting to get into adult, it is best not to fight with people already in it. Aaron does a lot of shit.

                                              Yes, I do.

                                              See, you are already asking stupid questions.

                                                  No, fuck you. You're the one calling yourself PussyMan.

                                                  Look. We can do this all day. But that's not why posted on this board. I honestly thought this was one of the better boards, with real insiders. Maybe I was wrong.

                                                  No need to get hostile. Respect.

                                                    No offense meant to either company but this comment is not exactly accurate these days:

                                                    "Hustler and Playboy comes to mind as they're both well established companies with proven track records."

                                                    Track records change based on many things...Including the stock market.

                                                            You insulted me, I replied with sarcasm.

                                                            Nobody asked you to roll over but you may want to consider the position you are in, the goal you have in mind, the people you are asking for help, and the way in which you are going about it all.

If you think you are gonna build websites ur competing with a bunch of dudes. And if your gonna shoot content you get to compete with me, Arron M, Jim Gunn, Vid Vicious etc.

It's not so much that you truly insulted me, but you did toss out a very generic statement which could insult a lot of people who take their business seriously simply because you labeled them as less than professional by suggesting they were not "on the business side."

I'm starting in the adult industry - on the business side, not as an actor or producer - mainly to learn more about the industry and the business. What are the top 5 adult companies to work for? Hustler and Playboy comes to mind as they're both well established companies with proven track records. But I would also consider companies like Voyeur Media and Lethal Hardcore.

                                                                              I'd like to hear from people close to the industry.
                                                                              Well, BrandonK, judging from your responses in the rest of this thread...you have just flunked your 1st interview with Playboy, Penthouse, Hustler, Vivid, Evil Angel, AVN, Wicked, Xbiz and any other of the major porn companies that are on this board regularly

                                                                              I suggest you have this thread deleted before the rest of the companies find it or you will have little chance at all in getting with any company

Think about it .. these are people who already made it in the industry (hence the industry leader title) ... so they already have the best SEO, content producer, etc contacts.... what do u have to offer? Why would they be interested in hiring you seeing as tho as you may not know much about adult?

You were corrected on that and I did so using sarcasm as a source of humor, not as a return insult. It's not so much that you truly insulted me, but you did toss out a very generic statement which could insult a lot of people who take their business seriously simply because you labeled them as less than professional by suggesting they were not "on the business side."
                                                                                      Cool. Now we're getting somewhere. Maybe I should have said "behind the scenes" instead? I think most people who want to get into the adult industry want to be porn stars. That's not my area of interest. I'm thinking of it as a dynamic, competitive industry and I'm willing to start at the bottom, behind the scenes.
