Achieving Success in the Adult Industry (alien.top)

Spent the last 10 months or so working with a development team building out a site in the adult industry (similar concept to onlyfans but a bit more niche).

We’re currently trying to market and grow as this platform has the ability and potential to scale like crazy, but feels like we’re running into some dead ends as this is a very network heavy industry.

Just looking to connect with anyone that may have some ideas / thoughts or feedback, my DMs are open!

Agreed with the network heavy industry part. I think marketing will be the hardest part especially when trying to get cold traffic

I have met quite a few people who have gone all in and spent a ton of $$$$ on a site, app or video channel only to have them become ghost towns.

You really do need a solid network for quick success or incredibly deep pockets. You can try setting up a booth at AvN or Xbiz but they are expensive and no guarantee you’ll get anything out of it.

I film a lot of models who build their branding around their butts and am even launching a butt-themed subscription-based pay site soon. I am on set for every shoot featured on the site. I also work with other butt-adjacent sites like Amazon Amanda's new site, BBW Adventures. This puts me in a lot of conversations about plaforms like yours, with the exact models you're looking for.

I was going to write out a few thoughts here because it seems clear to me where a lot of little things are holding your platform back from growing like you would want it to, but my energy drink kicked in and I ended up doing a deep dive into your business, and the "here are a couple questions models would want to know" post kept expanding as I looked through your site more. I'll reach out in a DM.
