Webmasters looking for DVD distribution
 

I have over 30 years experience of retail, licensing, manufacturing, and distribution of adult products. I have always made more money when prices are higher and selling quality movies than when promoting bottom dollar, low-end products. I really appreciate a quality movie, book, CD-Rom, or DVD, wholesaled at a reasonable price, handled by a knowledgeable retailer, and sold to an educated customer. I realized a long time ago that in order to have quality movies for sale, everybody in the supply line has to make a reasonable return or the incentive to create and sell dies.

Over these many years, I have developed a direct relationship with hundreds of adult movie companies, distributors and retailers. I count my customers in the hundreds of thousands and business is good. From this experience, I know that there are many caring, wonderful, and thoughtful people in this industry. There are also some of the dregs of humanity?.. Only a cautious approach to doing business with new companies over the years has shown me which is which. And, I must admit that most companies are owned and operated by good people who have integrity.

Now, if I was a website owner-operator, who was considering DVD distribution of their content, I?d look for an established video/DVD company to hook-up with. There are many reasons for this:
1. They have the distribution network in place and can get my product into the major chains.
2. They can handle the DVD replication and packaging.
3. They have a sales force that will push my DVDs along with theirs.
4. They have a payment history that tells me what to expect.
5. They have a staff of lawyers to protect their (and my) intellectual property.

I have already spoken to some of the major companies about taking on webmasters? content and they are interested. Generally, they would like to establish a product line and treat the webmaster as one of their directors. This would mean that the webmaster would have his/her own identity preserved and promote their websites thereby gaining additional name recognition through distribution of their DVD content in the retail environment. Not to mention the ego stoke of having your name associated with industry heavyweights.

The studios that I have spoken to have indicated that they would like to see good, new content with fresh faces with all the 2257s properly completed and filed along with some good still photography for cover art. The content itself can be edited or unedited, HD or SD. Moreover, some of the companies are willing to donate funds for production of new content if they know that they have a long-term relationship with the webmaster/producer in place. Most companies want to outright pay for the product rather than do a long-term percentage deal. This avoids suspicions that someone is cheating and the video studio assumes the risk for reproduction, distribution, and sales. The rights to the content can expire at some agreed to point in the future with all rights reverting back to the original owner. Of course, exactly how your deal is structured is up to you and the studio.
