A good friend of mine started a chat line (phone sex line) about 1 year ago. She, along with 2 of her employees were laid off from the company I work for, due to corporate restructuring, and wanted to try something new. (She was the V.P. of Finance for the co., and the other 2 are both CMA's, so they have strong business skills).

They have been advertising their chat line in local newspapers and national Arts & Entertainment guides, and have doing quite well. Last night, I let the cat out of the bag that I was also involved in this industry, so they thought there might be an opportunity to expand their business.

First thing...this chat line is NOT a dialer, per se. The largest and first thing you see on their site or when you call the phone line is the per minute charges and the minimum charge. They and I have no interest in "fooling" the customer. In fact, the customer first calls an 800 number, where a pre-recorded announcement goes over the charges. If the charges are acceptable, then the customer pushes the # key to accept...and only then is the call transferred to the 1-900 #. If he/she hangs up before pressing #, there are ZERO charges.

Second, any potential affiliate would be required to fax a copy of their drivers license before being assigned an affiliate account. If you are old enough to sign-up, then this should not be an issue. We will not support underage webmasters.

Any interest? Reasonable payout per minute?
