Any of you running local businesses aside from porn?

Just curious who else out there's a true entrpreneur. Not saying if you don't that you aren't one, you might already fill your time up, or are just happy with what you're currently doing. Any websites people are doing for local community?

Cheers,
Matt

see sig....I hope that within three years, I'll make more money from my writing than I will with porn..That would be a dream...I would give up porn if I could still sit here on my ass and get high and have checks coming in regularly...

I'm just addicted to the webmaster lifestyle...I'm to the point where it doesn't matter what product I push, as long as I get paid doing it.

Heh. I've read a few of your blog entries. Funny stuff. You should try doing some link trades with other bloggers and get listed in blog directories.. might help you out with making more money.

Cheers,
Matt

Because it's that mindset that has created some of the problems in this biz.

The mindset of I'm doing this until I get a "real" job.

I'm an entrepreneur...I kill myself to provide a product, a service whatever daily. And just because it's not mainstream or it's not brick and mortar doesn't make it less real.

I know you attempted to clarify your statement, but the fact that you worded it that way speaks volumes.

Speaks volumes? I don't think it speaks anything other than I realize that this IS a business. What I said says nothing regarding my motives or future plans. Doing well in an industry requires proper attention, whether it's adult or other.

Matt

Cool. Congrats with that. I know Doctor Dre is in that market too.

Soul_Rebel - Good stuff! He should have a website connected to a catalogue of his books and then people from the web could order books they're looking for. Just a way to get some extra sales.

Cheers,
Matt
