Why does the adult industry have so many enept sponser's and processor's?? - GoFuckYourself.com

Why are their so many in this business that are just totally INEPT to good business practice?? And I am referring to the ones that have been around for awhile.

Complete lact of PR, communication, hiding behind the email, no active phone lines (and when they do just voice mail), just a total lack of good business practice.Willing to risk their reputation over a few bucks. Imagine if main stream business communicated like this. This from companies that seem to have a good thing going.

Admittedly. there are exceptions that seem to have broke this mold and have reaped the rewards. But many remain clueless, imo..

My online experience has been nothing like this.

Unfortunately I would say over 50% of my dealing's have been this way. Now, intial communications are usually not so bad, just seem's to go downhill shortly afterwords.

I will give ibill as a recent example for many webmaster's.

dude, if you're going to try and come across as some smarty-pants big shot by using fancy words, at least spell the fancy word correctly.

Hmmmm, there are good and bad in this industry but that's just like any other...

To compete one needs to offer a sponsor affiliate program out the door.

Problem is so many go up "under capitalized", under resourced [staffing etc], and believe they can grow into their business model.

KK, nice photo shoot grrl! :-)

What happens is that the people starting up the business and get it going understand how to run it and keep their customers happy. Things go downhill when they have other inexperienced people come in and try to run the place. This happens whenever the original guys sell out or semi-retire from the decision-making. In iBill's case, they were started up by a management team that did a great job building up the company. They were later replaced by a team that was mostly focused on preparing iBill for sale.
