Porn Business Books
Does anyone know any books that would be a good read for somebody interested in the adult business (video or internet)?
If they are regular books not necessarily relating to the adult business, but would still be good for it in your opinion, pass it along! Again, I'm interested in both the video and internet sides of the business. Thanks! |
I actually ordered and read a book before entering this biz. But thats how I am, I always plan things seriously (well, being on GFY changed things for the worse, but nvm :uhoh)
The book was "insane profits - guide on how to make money in the adult business" or sth like that. I also read pornresource and xbiz back then carefully. But that was years ago. Today Im not sure if there are any good books. Actually the industry is changing faster than ever nowadays, I doubt there are books telling how to profit from tubes or do adult blogs or how to get traffic in other ways. There are obviously tons of good business books overall but most of they don't reveal any secrets either, they rather give you the proper attitude or a better business mind. Some people have these things without any books already anyway. To sum up, no book will tell you how to make money in online adult in 2009. You need to learn all that by yourself :winkwink: Can't really comment on the video part but I wouldn't expect to find a "step by step" guide either. |
what you need is the issue of XBiz Magazine

Tons of articles at Klixxx http://www.klixxx.com/new/index.php/articles
We actually have a 200 + page Klixxx University "book" as well that I can send you...Just email or ICQ me :o) |
you don't need any books...
GFY is the holy grail :) |
One of my fave mainstream books about web design called _Trains of Thought_ - it really focuses on the psychology of what site visitors want & is very applicable to adult, maybe even more so than mainstream.
It's too old and too much about flash to be a "how to", but is awesome for getting the APPROACH right. |
The Sex.com Chronicles should be a good one to read. Written by Charles Carreon.

Think and Grow Rich -- Napoleon Hill
Goals -- Brian Tracy The Power of Full Engagement The 80/20 Principle The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People The 8th Habit The Art of War -- Sun Tzu These are all general books but will have more benefit than any "industry" related book could ever hope to have. |
dam... I knew I had to buy a book long time ago.... the art of war has been eluding me for a long time... not anymore, I'll hit amazon right now .... :)
