If only one thing we all can agree on about this business
 

Ive been involved in different industries and still am, noone can beat the creativity that adult webmasters have, tons of the ad concepts used in mainstream was designed and invented by guys in adult.

I agree, the creativity in this industry is truly remarkable.

Agreed, and now mainstream (regarding opportunity level) is where Adult was in 1999/2000.

I'm amazed at all I've learned about mainstream in the short time I've been researching it. Mainstream opportunities are a plenty :winkwink:

Are you the same Wired Guy that posts on every board I've ever been on? Mainstream, adult, and all of the other ones that are around? You get around man!

Must be someone else as I only post on 3 boards and not really mainstream.

Adult marketing is always on the cutting edge, moving ahead faster than anything mainstream.

Probably due to all the competition, webmasters have no choice but to innovate and evolve faster with marketing

:2 cents:

Yes, be creative and make $$$

The ideas that come out of adult and actually get put into use is amazing.

careful what you feed the basset.

I post as NotWiredGuy on mainstream boards

:2 cents:

I have to disagree. I've never seen an adult ad which can beat the top mainstream ads.

I mean, for example
Geico (the squirrel, caveman, speed racer)
Holiday Inn Express ("No, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night)
Budweiser (let alone any of the the beer company commercials)
Toyota (truck falling off the cliff, meteor in the desert)

The list could go on and on and on.

The companies that are hired for these new age ground breaking ads make millions of dollars for their work on just a single commercial. I have never seen anything like these marketing ideas used in adult. All I really see in adult marketing is blinking text saying "join now". Unless by "ads" you meant something entirely different? Please correct me if I'm wrong here.

Though... If you were talking strictly internet marketing, and not mainstream as far as TV commercials, magazine ads, and radio commercials. Well, If that is the case I would have to agree. Adult is usually far more creative than mainstream when it comes to internet marketing.
