How do you start a porno company?

Serious. How much do you pay your first models? How do you hold a talent search? lol sounds weird, but i wanna know!

IF you see this question and have no idea -- just you know share some creative ideas...

I've thought about it... I'm in a business program and my friend is in an internet application developer program -- it would be perfect, but I don't think I'll actually do it. Even though it seems like an easy business, it kind of brings shame upon your name just to be associated with it.

What I was going to do....

- Rent out an office to make it professional, models will be creeped out coming to your house to do it and will think you're a real amateur. Make your business name kind of convoluded so that it isn't blatently clear that you are a porn company. Something like Net Entertainment, vague like that
- Place an ad in the classifieds/job section of your local newspaper asking for adult models, quick and easy money, based on looks and talent. Give an email to contact you, or phone number but expect weird calls if you give out a phone #
- Have models send you a portfolio or just regular pictures so you can see if you would be interested in working with them through email, or arrange to meet with them in your office to see if they are right for the job. If you have all the applicants come and wait at the same time they will see all the competition and think you are a big, good company and maybe be willing to work for less.
- Dress professionally and act professionally. Treat them with respect and they will be a lot more comfortable working with you. If you're a sleazeball you don't stand a chance.
- All the computer stuff, setting up the websites etc get someone who is good with all of that stuff to do it for you probably.
- MAKE SURE THEY AREN'T REALLY DUDES. I am dead serious on this one, find out early... unless that's the kind of site you want to make.

It will work out cheapest to pay your models by photo shoot/video probably, I'd say $100 for a few hours of photo shooting would be enough probably... not very many jobs you can make $100 in a day with no education. Getting a base of quality models is the easy part, getting a good clientelle of paying customers is another story... it's going to take a hell of a lot of marketing, and you have millions of competitors out there. Try to find a niche and fill it to give yourself better chances of success, but it's pretty much all been done.

1. you pay them with cash or check
2. on moster.com or a job search site

while it is legal, the Mafia and others
will also watch you and if they
want your biz, you gotta give it to them.
