I'm thinking about acquiring or partnering up with an Adult Company - GoFuckYourself.com

Shap · 03-25-2014, 09:46 AM

I’m considering getting back in adult by either partnering up with a company, acquiring a company, or acquiring a stake in a company. If you, or anyone you know, may be interested please email me at pornshap at gmail dot com.

That’s the cliff notes version. Now some details.

I’ve spent the last few months thinking about what I am going to do next. Do I go mainstream and start something new? Do I join a startup or two and help them grow? Do I buy a mainstream company and try to crush it? I’m not sure which direction I want to go. What I do know is the adult biz and i know how to make money. So I thought before I make a decision on my future that I’d see what is available in adult and see if there is a good fit for me.

What am I looking for?
I’m not looking for someone to pay me I’m looking for someone to make money with. It doesn’t matter what niche (gay or straight) or what area (billing, pay sites, tubes, cams, dating) I believe I can contribute in all of them. What matters is finding someone that I believe has a good product/business and more importantly someone that I think would benefit from what I can offer.

Anyhow I think that’s long enough of a post. If you have any questions feel free to ask and bump this thread for me. Also, feel free to spread the word and pass this along. If you play match maker and pass this along to someone that turns out to be the perfect fit I will be sure to find a very appropriate way to thank you

Any of you that are interested email me at pornshap at gmail dot com

Here's a thought.

You have knowledge and lots of it.

Teach that knowledge and become a mentor/partner in multiple "companies"

Your knowledge to someone relatively new would be priceless so to speak.

Leave a legacy bigger than the one you already have.

Great question and I hope I can answer it without coming across like a douche bag. If I do please by all means let me know.

The truth is I've built a company from the ground up already. I've done that grind. When I did it it was worth every hour I spent doing it. I had no money, i was young and the time was right. I'm not interested in working 16 hours a day by myself to build up a new business.

Not too long ago I heard an interview with Rob from FTV where he was mentioning that this may be his last year. I know how he feels. I felt the same way the last few years before I sold. After 15 years the grind of running a business had worn me down. I needed a break. I know others feel that way too. Listening to him got me thinking an ideal situation may be partnering up with someone in that position that needs a break but wants their business well looked after and maybe even grown.

I have really enjoyed myself the past 3 years. Not working and enjoying life and enjoying my family has been great. To get me back in the ring will take a really unique opportunity. It makes no sense for me to start busting my ass for a few extra dollars a month. If I'm going to do anything it has to be big. Not only in terms of the money but the challenge and fun of it. My gut tells me somewhere out in the industry the right opportunity is there. We shall see

None whatsoever. This is a timeless endless dateless thread

I'm waiting for that right opportunity to hit my inbox. It may never hit. So the thread goes on

BTW On that note it may already be in my inbox. I have to go through and reply to everyone. So if you've emailed me don't take my above comment as a rejection.

CurrentlySober · 03-26-2014, 02:36 AM

Not kissing ass, as I have zero reason too, but I was gonna post 'good luck' - But decided not too...

Why? Cause you dont need 'Luck'... Whoever parters with Shap will no doubt suffer extreme success, and likewise, Shap will succeed again, even if its just on his own two feet...

CHMOD · 03-26-2014, 02:44 AM

Shap,

Since I work on my new baby, Sliiing.com, I have much less time to take care about my adult websites. I might be interested in your offer.

My adult websites are:

www.18andbusty.com
www.no2silicone.com
www.busty-teens.org

Cheers

To be honest I have thought about that. As my posts probably indicate I like helping people. My thinking was to first look to see if there was a bigger opportunity available.

How would you set up a mentor/partnering service? What is the compensation? What is expected in return? What are the terms?

As an example let's say you and I work together. I can come up with a list of 10 things right off the bat that would change your business for the better. Whether you have thought about them or not doesn't matter what's more important is your ability to implement them. Can you? The reality of most smaller operations is they don't have the ability to implement the changes necessary to make strides towards growing. A great example is Porn Nerd. He busts his ass. He's a one man show and is doing his best to make money. He does a great job imo. He's honest and hard working. I could give him ideas all day long but he can't implement them. How do you work that situation out?
