People Helping People

The Internet porn industry is a large, diverse and hugely profitable industry. It is one of the easiest industries to get into and also one of the easiest to get out of should you need to do that for whatever reason.

Some would say that this is also the easiest industry in which to make money. Still others will tell you the opposite: this industry is one of the hardest in which to make money.

Well that just doesn't make sense, so which is it? To be honest, that depends on you. How much work are you willing to put into this industry? The more you're willing to do, the easier it gets to make money.

Take heart, dear friends, because you don't have to do it all yourself. Oh, granted, you are going to have to work your butt off, but there are great resources available to help you. Yes, Virginia, there really is a Santa Claus. In the pornographic world, Santa has a great many guises, all of them helpful.

As your heart undoubtedly lightens with hope, let me say that while very helpful, none of these resources are going to do the work for you. Don't think that it will. If that's what you're looking to find, then you are in the wrong place and the McDonald's down the street won't hire you either because no matter where you work, you're going to have to actually work.

However, resource sites are called resource sites because those sites are the best places to look for information, support, and occasional freebies. These available resources are pure gold to the person who finds and uses them. Newbies, especially, find these sites to be priceless as they learn how everything works.

There is one major connection between all of the resource sites that are available to you: people. The people who have donated time and content, advice and articles, were once newbies themselves. Now they have figured out what works for them, and they are willing to share some of their knowledge.

Silently thank them, then take the advice being given and figure out how to put it to good use! The articles and advice are there to help you get your feet on the ground, keep them there as much as is needed, and point you in the right direction.

Folks, the kind people who are offering you this step to a good foundation were once just like you. They had no idea where to go, nor what to do, nor how to do it. But you have a serious advantage that they might not have had: you have their expertise, right in front of you.

You have the free stuff like text or content. You have the ability to check out many different sponsors. You have message boards, which, while often full of junk, contain some of the best information and assistance to be found anywhere.

Here's the fun part: By interacting on the message boards, you can easily find many of the writers for and contributors to the resource sites. Yes, you really can pick their brains! Ask, ask, ask and ask some more. Be a nuisance! It's fun! You get to learn stuff! Oh joy!

Do everything in your power to become a regular on message boards. Do everything you possibly can to visit as many resource sites as you can, and glean something from each visit. Remember, knowledge is power, and with that power, you can be as wealthy as you want to...

Take care of yourselves! ~ Tala
