No Offense To Ramos...

Because I'm sure his decision is right for him and all,

But I can't believe someone would go from porn to toys.

Toys are soooooooooo much harder to sell, and your profit is sliced instantly because you have to actually pay for the products.

If I was doing the amount of sales I've done at BRS in porn I'd be a millionaire right now, instead, I drive a camry.

Sometimes people just need a new challenge.

Before this I was in the mainstream e-commerce business and after this, who knows? I think it's good for people to take a chance and try different avenues - if we don't grow, we shrink (or something like that..)

Sure, it's a great sex toy and sells well etc, but it's still nothing in comparison to pron

Could be a varierty of reasons, maybe better pay, maybe ownership or percentage of sales. Maybe he just wanted something new. Whatever the reason, it must have been something quite nice to leave Playboy for. Best of luck to you Ramos on your future endeavours.

Have to agree with you. Especially leaving a company like Playboy/adult.com

For sure.

I'm sure he'll do great, and already is!

It's just strange from my perspective is all.

If you saw my fleshlight stats, you'd think differently.

I'm sure you do! But you're missing the point. Webmasters make a lot more with us on each sale then we make, and on certain products we actually lose money.

It just seems very easy to make tons of money in porn, and very hard to make a lot in toys.

That's a really good point.

The smaller the company the more your actions directly affect your income.

I've had two 30% raises since I've been doing this, which is unheard of in any corporation or big business.

Do you know what your talking about ?

Going from Porn (a over saturated market) to Toys (a very niched, high yield market..in this case) is an excellent move.

When you are getting paid a salary it doesn't really matter.

Not to mention his bonuses are tied to a product that they not only own the market for, it's one that just about every male targeted (porn & mainstream) website carries or will carry in the future. That makes up for the loss of the "bulk sales" that pushing porn brings in a saturated market.

It kinda works out the same for him either way but at least this way he has less competition for webmaster traffic.

Ramos was being paid by Lensman to be in the office everyday, during which time he always seemed to be promoting Fleshlights anyway. It was just a logical step to actually go on the Fleshlight payroll in my opinion.

I've heard the real story that he left is that all the gay guys have seen the ramos ad, and they are seriously requesting a fleshRAMOS, and they needed to hire him for the body scans and molding modeling...

Expect the release of the standard, and chrocolate versions of fleshRAMOS to hit the shelves in 2007

No offense to Lens, but he is not known for paying his employees top $. Also, Austin has a much better quality and cost of living then sac town.
