    Will you survive the summer slowdown?

    It happens every year and it makes quite a few people run away from the biz in fear. If you've been around long enough, you know that preparation is key. What have you done to prepare for the slowdown? Will you survive? Have you ever even heard of the summer slowdown (if you're new, you'll definitly learn about it soon enough)?

    I'm always prepared for slow downs - I've diversified into fields in and outside the adult market and niches.

          Make Fucking Money will definitly bring in the bankroll!

          As far as expanding your horizons....Excellent plan. Where business slows down in 1 field, it always picks up in another. I'm personally planning on opening up a chain of sidewalk lemonade stands!

                            I've always felt that the "Summer Slowdown" was a self-fulfilling prophecy. It's usually not too difficult to figure out where your competition will be hedging their bets, just jump in & fill the void.

                            Slowdown or not, there's still LOTS of money to be made in the summertime

                              Quite true

                              Those who have the traffic, have the traffic. Those that aren't established will have a rough time. That's how things go. It's always nice to see so many kids jump out of the game. It's kind of like a newbie scrub.

                              It'll be interesting to see how many people will wish they'd used recurring over the last year. I'm sure program owners will have some nice advertising campaigns ready to roll out in the near future.

                                  there not much of a slow down on my side of things, but when there is a slow down we just build and add new stuff to launch for the winter time when business is back in full force.

                                    It's sure a good thing to see so many positive people. It shows who the true webmasters are. Unfortunately, guys like Quiet will fall by the wayside.

                                      No reason not to stay postive just build build and build and everything will fall into place, others are relaxing and we build which will show who the true profit is in the end.
