    Thank Someone That Made a Huge Impact or Difference in Your Business....

    All of us have had a moment where something happens that changes your business forever. For some it was the first listing on the hun. For others it was meeting someone.

    Here are some of mine.

    PersianKitty was the first adult site I ever visited. Was the site that first listed a site I made and helped crash my university server. The rest is History

    Danni Ashe Absolutely smashed it promoting her site.

    Wifeys World had a link exchange with them when they went live on Dateline. Got me 250,000 uniques in less than 24 hours. This was back when the biggest sites didn't do 250,000 uniques a day. Game Changer.

    Atk Kingdom and Karups Shared with me their philosophies and approach to paysites which i used as my basis for everything that went into the Twistys Members area design and layout.

    These are just a few people that came along and exactly the right time for me and my business and really helped shape my future.

    Who are some people (or companies) that made an impact and difference in your business? It could even be someone who doesn't even know they inspired you. It's always nice to give someone who's helped you a little kudos and appreciation

          Thanks to Beau Flexxx for being the first real big cock I shot, and letting me be the first to shoot you jacking off and getting blown by a guy.

          To this day people searching for him find my sites and bring money in 10 years later. A quality great person off camera too

              New Line Cinema (now merged into Warner Brothers) who bought a WIP movie from me in 1993, paid me a lot of money for 25 year license. The flick was # 1) for 7 weeks on US video charts back then. WB are sending me roylaties till this day.... So, when action B flicks went down to the tolilette along with the VHS casettes .. I have rekindled this genre and it keeps me going ever since...

                Steve Lightspeed taught me HTML and how to make web pages. This was back in the day when webpages were few. I come across one of his sites and shot him an email, and much to my surprise he responded. I said something like "I wish I could make a website" and he replied "Why don't you?". He made me a short list of of what I needed for software, I went out and bought it the next day, and that night I had a simple webpage hosted on my computer he could see.

                I did my interview with Porn & Coffee the other day, I mentioned this during the Interview. Steve was kind enough to hit me up and thank me. He doesn't seem to understand how big of an impact he's had on me. Everything I have today is directly because of him.

                      I thank ebay.. with out ebay my current business wouldn't exist. I'm mixed if I should thank Amazon or not.. While amazon can be a great selling platform they really make it hard on smaller operations and give very little recourse to sellers.

                          Eva Markham has to be top of that list. Then a few other photographers like John Mason and Steve Colby helped me to sharpen my meagre skills.

                          And thanks to all the programmers we employed.

                            Shap: I thank you for all the help and insight you have given me without even knowing it throughout the years.

                            Ruff Davidson: a good man who mentored me back when I knew jack shit about shit (unlike now, where I know jack shit about some things).

                            JFK: the first person to ever say hello to me at a show. (He rightly ignores me now haha!)

                            Robbie: inspiration and spirited debates.

                            Tubes: Yup, deal with it. Without them I'd be nowhere.

                            The Porn Nerd: I always forget to thank myself for my never stopping even when things looked bleakest. You have to remind yourself that however many people help you it's always ultimately up to YOU to get shit done.

                                      Robert Mooney, Serge Birbrair, Ron Levi. Learned from all of them. Just wish someone would have told me to put my money into cam sites instead of real estate back when I still had some.

                                                  I *always* forget people in threads like these, because so many people have helped over the years, and shaped new directions for me, whether directly or 'just' from reading their posts. Lot of people over the years have had a heavy influence in where I am now, so to start with I'll name these:

                                                  Those are the main ones I can remember off the top of my head. Of course a ton more teach me different things both in the past and on an ongoing basis. Truly grateful to these people for sharing their shit and/or 1-on-1 help they gave/give me. I think most people underestimate just what a huge impact we all have on others (good or bad!) so a very heartfelt thanks to you all #nohomo

                                                    Lensman was my first affiliate check - I think it was Amateur Pages.

                                                    A short time later he offered me a job. It turns out ICS was located at the time in Livermore, California, which was where I lived - their office was on the same street where my wife worked. I told them at the time there was "no money in online porn". LOL. Ten years later Playboy bought ICS and then hired me.

                                                    Strange how these things work out.

                                                              Great Thread Shap

                                                              There are so many and I hope I don't leave someone out. The common thread with all these folks is unlike so many others they treated us with the same respect on day one in the biz as they did 10 years later. Our ideas and ideals always resonated with these people much more than our daily uniques and joins. I imagine that they took this approach with many people and it probably had a lot to do with why they are all individually successful.


                                                              Eric from GFY - Someone we met really early on and gave us a lay of the industry land.
                                                              Steve and Rochard from Lightspeed - They were the first big company to link to us and neither have ever wavered as fans of what we have been trying to do at Yanks.
                                                              Mitch from Netbilling - Has always reached out like clockwork to see what we need to be successful.
                                                              Mike from Webair - He treated us the same on a $20 month plan as he did when we were doing many multiples of that.
                                                              YNOTBob and LAJ - They had me on the radio show and introduced us around to so many people
                                                              Laura - formerly of NA has always been my north star for how content production should be done.

                                                              If I missed someone obvious, sorry and I appreciate you too! All these early assists were done with lots of booze well over a decade ago.

The flick was # 1) for 7 weeks on US video charts back then. WB are sending me roylaties till this day.... So, when action B flicks went down to the tolilette along with the VHS casettes .. I have rekindled this genre and it keeps me going ever since...

The common thread with all these folks is unlike so many others they treated us with the same respect on day one in the biz as they did 10 years later. Our ideas and ideals always resonated with these people much more than our daily uniques and joins. I imagine that they took this approach with many people and it probably had a lot to do with why they are all individually successful.


                                                                    Eric from GFY - Someone we met really early on and gave us a lay of the industry land.
                                                                    Steve and Rochard from Lightspeed - They were the first big company to link to us and neither have ever wavered as fans of what we have been trying to do at Yanks.
                                                                    Mitch from Netbilling - Has always reached out like clockwork to see what we need to be successful.
                                                                    Mike from Webair - He treated us the same on a $20 month plan as he did when we were doing many multiples of that.
                                                                    YNOTBob and LAJ - They had me on the radio show and introduced us around to so many people
                                                                    Laura - formerly of NA has always been my north star for how content production should be done.

                                                                      since im thinking about it..

                                                                      tommys - always a quality source, could always rely on getting listed there getting me sales

                                                                      yahoo - when i first got listed in their directory traffic took the fuck off and was a whole new level

Of course a ton more teach me different things both in the past and on an ongoing basis. Truly grateful to these people for sharing their shit and/or 1-on-1 help they gave/give me.

                                                                                                    Many others from Amber to the Blatts to Patrick...the list goes on

                                                                                                    However the two had the biggest biz influence on me were Shemp and Shap...two different time periods but reinforced the "give back" mentality and approach that is pa rt of anything successful in business

Wasn't sure if you remembered me from those subbing days, linkforsex was always on the 1st template of recips Also remember Tommy singing your seo praises in 2006/7? Loooong time ago it seems now lol. And Jay... I have a big soft spot for him. He looked after me back in the LL days

                                                                                                    I should also mention Iceman from 4cfnm... no idea if he has ever posted here, or read/reads, but without him hitting me up to tell me that the images I was using for my fun galleries could continue to be used, just 'sign up to this program and use an affiliate link' kickstarted it all, and then led me on to ANS.

                                                                                                    Gotta also mention Shemp who for me is on a par with Rowdy, just class all the way. Never even a hint of drama or having a shit fit - alas, my temperament - although I'd *like* it to be the same - is a loooooooooong way off haha. This industry gets a bad rep a hella lot, and lots of it is deserved. On the flip side it's also one of the most helpful and open ones, imo.
