What would you do if you had to leave Adult? - GoFuckYourself.com

Cory W · 03-22-2004, 12:03 PM

If you were finished by day's end for whatever reason, what would you do? If you could no longer run your sites, be a sale's person, shoot content, be content, sell traffic...what would you do in the mainstream?

Would you apply for eCommerce positions in the mainstream and if so, would you hide / fudge your background?

Obviously, some of the real big players have strategically diversified into the mainstream, but for many people, they either haven't or would still need to supplement income with a mainstream job.

I have plans on leaving adult but if it did happen
well then I would have to devote my time to my mainstream sites and smoke more weed to help keep me from getting bored and to dull the pain.

I've always wondered what I put on a resume for the last several years if I went back into the corporate world. I can skirt the issue "Self employed internet advertising" like I do with some of my family members

but someone who really wanted to delve would need more info.

My plan is to buy and sell land in my area in addition to adult so HOPEFULLY I would still be covered, but that fear of drafting a resume always lurks in the back of my tiny brain.

Peaches you nailed it. That is the major issue. Like WiredGuy said, everyone needs SEO so likely he could just transition right over to the mainstream.

But here is a good example of what I am talking about. When I left my last marketing job, I was making money from other promotions and living, well, good. But, I got that itch to go back to work again and just pull the old workaholic thing. So, I started applying for mainstream jobs and disclosing what my experience was from did not help

Thing is, this industry is tainted (perception-wise to mainstream companies). Don't get me wrong, I got creative with "how I disclosed it," but still, it is tough out there.

When I was looking for mainstream marketing jobs, I learned exactly how tied to the industry I am. Hell, many companies wanted to know: examples of ad copy written, sites promoted, consumer traffic spots I worked deals with....most of which can not be easily fudged.

I am not planning to leave my Weg marketing job, nor any of my personal interest without a good fight, but, I do at times think about what may happen if I have to get back into mainstream.

Sure, a lot is out there and I am sure I would get into the groove of things, but I don't think it would be without a few headaches.

smack · 03-22-2004, 05:40 PM

honestly and truely i would just turn to cooking full time. i've been a chef for about 6 years now, and i have enough expierience in that industry where i could support myself.

I surf rather frequently. I sure as hell wish I could find a way to do that for a living. Damn, life would be good.

I wish I could say I was a chef. Or I should say I wish I could say I was a chef and actually have it be true
