1994 working with an audiotext company, (900 and 976 numbers). Then picked up an online delivery system from a company called Virtual Dreams out of Vegas. People were sending us checks and money orders through the mail, until we got a merchant account through First Bank of Beverly Hills. They had no idea what the internet was, so they gave us a card swipe machine. People would BBS their card numbers to us, we would punch it in the swipe machine, and then BBS back a password. I left in 1996, to run a large call center, then moved to Miami in 1999 and got back in the business with one of the new (at that time) automated gateway card processors, and 99% of our transactions were in adult. They went down in 2003 and I went on my own.
