Hi Raffi - been trying to hit you and Art up on ICQ but haven't had an ack. from you..we met at Internext Florida and/or vegas as I have both of your biz cards...
To answer your question...we turnover $7000 per month for one small client in the UK alone...yes there is incremental brand new revenue to be had...and I would love to help you exploit it...we help over 40 program owners reach worldwide cell phone users with an appetite for adult mobile content.
You must remember that there are two types of content on mobile
1) Personal and 2) Personalised.
1) Personal is the stuff that consumers enjoy in private..the 2 to 3 min video clips for $7 (yes $7- mobile phone content economics are unlike the 'net) and images/animations for $3. This type of content will commoditize fast and prices will fall due to competition and a flood of content to market over next 12 to 18 months...but appetite will grow - which means sales volume will increase and there will be lots of room for many adult publishers to profit with the right strategy . Adult mobile content consumers (those who are 18+!) tend to be the executive playstation generation with modern large screen phones - 6600, 3650, etc...so their experience is excellent - 3x3 screens, full colour, sound, video....please note that low bandwidth streaming video on many porn websites (e.g. Asstraffic or GivemePink) defaults to 2x2" screen! And if you try and blow up you lose resolution....so low bandwidth users have had to live with this screen size for years...and webmasters have profited from it...why should the same not be true of mobile?
2) Personalisation content will always attract a premium. This is the stuff that consumer want to use as wallpaper, screen savers, games, moantones. And of course is needs to be subtle but many consumers would rather have Terra Patrick licking-her-lips in close up as a screen saver rather than a dancing frog with an annoying song! Personalzation content is huge, is price inelastic and if your can produce exlclusive content then you will always attract a premium.
I hope this shifts your perceptions positively Raffi and can we please talk on ICQ!! :-)
