what does Ashley do? ok - i met Ashley off GFY late last summer, had nothing to do with a website, furthest thing from my mind. Ashley was going to leave this business and get another job and keep going to school - she had been offered partnerships by people, probably by some who read/post on this board but she didn't want to have her butt raped by the asswipes in this industry like other girls have been. so i thought about her situation and suggested that if she went out on her own, didn't betray anybody, she'd give them no ammunition. i used Arika Ames as an example of a girl in her age bracket as a girl doing it on her own. she asked if i could help - i said yes, IF and only IF she understood what level of committment was necessary and how much she had to do and learn. So that's what we did - hasn't been the smoothest journey but she's learned alot and like she said she's learning more each day. She can do HTML now, not great but enough to update her site and pages herself, she can resize and watermark her pics, she's learning how to Photoshop her pics herself now - it's not an easy skill to pick up. She's also networking her fluffy butt off cuz in the end Ashley is her best asset. She can talk the talk now - i am tough on her - i make her ask me questions, if there's something she doesn't understand or reads on a board she asks me what it means. She's been a trooper when it comes to shooting content - her local photographer is a busy guy and it was becoming a roadblock to getting her site up because this site isn't going to be like so many others - 20 sets and 4 videos and turn it into an upsell banner farm inside. So my shooter John went down to shoot Ashley and I told him he had to come back with 70 sets - that meant shooting day and night for 7 days straight - u might think it's easy but it isn't - i have one shooter who refuses to shoot single girls sites cuz he says he can't take being alone with a young model for
3 or 4 days straight - Ashley hung in there for 7 days and she and John got some stunning stuff done together.
I don't know what u want her to do - design a full tour website and members area? 95% of people on GFY couldn't do that. You want her to install her CMS software? Again 95% of GFY can't do that.

Ashley's going to run her own site and program - i told her when we started that i'm not interested in being her webmaster, not interested in making a dime off her site. I want her to grow beyond being a model - and she's game - and she's definitely bright enough. I poke and prod her all the time to make sure she's on point and moving towards that goal.

I'm rarely wrong about people, first thing of course i noticed about Ashley was what she looked like - she made my jaw drop, never seen the embodiment of the 'girl next door' as clearly as with her. She went to shoot for Stephen Hicks the famous Penthouse photographer - i sent her - she hadn't been in his studio a full day when i got a phonecall from him - the man has shot pretty much every major glamour model and pornstar over the past 25 years - he was beside himself he was that excited - Ashley blew him and his crew away - she does that. Next she blew the new owner of Penthouse away - unfortunately for him Ashley's goals weren't Penthouse's goals for her - to make her the first Penthouse contract star. She wanted to follow her original plan - to become a full fledged webmaster and control her own destiny.

she's almost home.

now let's hear what u do again - surely somebody on GFY must do some kind of business with you?
