FSC Seeks Feedback From New Opinion Survey

CANOGA PARK, Calif. — The Free Speech Coalition, the industry’s trade association, reaches out to the community with an upgraded website and new online survey.

By recently revamping its website, the FSC can now post simple surveys and polls.

The current survey seeks feedback from adult businesses and industry professionals on what they think are the most important issues facing the adult entertainment industry today and what the FSC can do to better serve the industry.

“It all starts with communication, and I think that people in the industry have not had an opportunity to be in direct contact with FSC, so we want to make a big effort at outreach,” FSC membership director Joanne Cachapero told XBIZ.

“Feedback from industry members is the best way to understand how FSC can better serve the industry by providing relevant services and resources. Positive, negative or simply informational feedback is what we need in order to start a dialogue with our members. As we bring greater awareness and relevance to the FSC, hopefully non members will see the benefits of participation in the association," she said.

Cachapero added that because of rapidly changing technologies and economic factors, there are very different concerns for the industry than there were five years ago.

“It’s difficult to be everything to everybody and the issues that face various industry sectors are diverse," Cachapero said. "But FSC would like to create a hub, for activity and resources that help industry businesses implement better business practices.

"Whether this will be through developing standards and practices; or presenting a pro-adult voice to media; or promoting adult products through special events and consumer education; or providing programs to help businesses protect their ability to do good business," she added.

FSC members include a broad range of adult businesses from producers to retailers.

The FSC provides business resources to its members, and serves as a watchdog and voice for the adult entertainment industry.
