Us guys who hit success in this industry early 95 or 96 are kinda fucked
 

It is so hard to deal with slow growth with new projects once we have seen astronomical and exponential growth with our first projects in the good old days.

I don't know, I guess it all depends on how you approach things. :)

hahaha, ain't that the truth!

lmfao. you guys have no clue how to make money

Teach me

Its true though.. things are definately different now!

Carmine agrees

what are upu complaining about Mike?

You are still kicking ass.

no more triple cross sales..lol

thre is still money to be made...for my part it is just figuring out how to find the right webmasters. :)

quit whining and get to work

Definately not complaining but just agreeing with you that things are no where near as easy as they were back then. :)

nah, the real issue is you let so many slow growers go by because you just couldn't see yourself working for such a small return.

it ruins you ;)

There are plenty of triple's being done still. I saw a quad last week, half pre checked.

damn...that must take balls these days

I hear you loud and clear...

we need to talk about a VOD solution..Richard was impressed.

I have a meeting tuesday with Jay and then we'll decide on one of the two or writing our own. I'll keep you posted though.

Ok Mike, check us both out.

solution is simple: move on to a less saturated market -> leave adult!

why didn't I think of that years ago????

12 Clicks, do you guys have a click program with keyword targeting XML text links?

yeah.
textlinks.com
a slightly less targeted version would be clickthrutraffic.com

anyone that was around back then should be rich enough it doesnt matter

is Bill Gates still working?
I forget.

If i had started back then.. i would be retired by now... back in the before the 00's everyone was banking..and insane ammounts.. no need to work anymore..

This is why we should applaud the n00bz that make it in this industry. They don't have the years of experience and the luck of getting into the game when it was easy; not to mention the capital to make mistakes with new ventures...

Exactly... cant quit. part of what makes a man successfull is his drive to succeed and compete. The drive to want re acheive new goals.

There is still # to be made. Just have to work harder and smarter than ever before. Can not be spoiled by the gold rush of the old days.


It also helps if you do not mind selling your soul to the devil to a point.

Perfect reply. I gotta remember that one!

Why not have that growth now? If you cant do it then maybe find someone to work for you who can.
