Ashley Sinclair Reports Social Media Success

VENICE, Calif. — It was a tweet that was read around the world, when pro wrestler Paul Heyman opined, “Who Owns Instagram? ?@AshleySinclair0 Owns Instagram!”

Ashley Sinclair is the adult star who is rewriting the playbook on how to be an adult star, by taking her sexuality directly to her fans, where in addition to shooting scenes for big companies, she is also doing private Skype sessions, making custom videos and connecting directly with fans via social media.

Her Instagram, which debuted earlier this month, was noticed by Heyman, the founder of Extreme Championship Wrestling who is currently signed to WWE. His site, HeymanHustle.com has a lot of people paying attention to what he’s saying — with his tweet about Ashley reportedly re-tweeted 4,600 times and garnering more than 6.000 likes.

It also overwhelmed Ashley’s email and social media with people introducing themselves to her.

“It was incredibly overwhelming,” Ashley said. “I get a lot of email and tweets every day, but these past couple days have been unbelievable, hundreds of people have reached out, and I’m not even close to being caught up.”

Ashley has been trying her hand for years at the various delivery methods for social media, with a focus on being sexy, informative, interesting, relevant and upbeat. She’s developed a loose routine that works for her and tens of thousands of followers.

One standard is her daily life selfies. Not surprisingly, Ashley says, fans are interested in what it’s like to live as a porn starlet.

“They like seeing my house, where I go to socialize, where I go shopping, where I work out at the gym,” Ashley says. “They like seeing what I wear in everyday life and imagine what they would do if they saw me at the park or grocery store or the mall, and so on. Or they put themselves in the shoes of the people who live here in East Tennessee locally must think when they see me out.”

She also posts behind the scene photos from before and during her shoots to help promote her work.

“I also do behind the scenes photos on set of the shoots I produce for my various websites,” Ashley adds. “It builds anticipation! I can’t possibly stress this enough as there is probably nothing as important. Anticipation of what is next has always kept people coming back to my social media.”

Ashley started with Twitter nearly four years ago, holding out on Instagram until she felt that she had something unique to post, because she had no desire to post just for the sake of posting.

“I hate being too redundant,” Ashley says. “I’ve only had it a short time and I’ve captured an entirely different audience with my Instagram than my Twitter. Instagram is still pretty new to me, but I seem to be having a nice impact there.

Rather than being redundant, it’s turning out that the more Ashley reveals to the public, the bigger of an audience she has.

“My Instagram niche is primarily those following who want to see and know more about my fitness endeavors,” Ashley  explains. “I’ve come to find the importance of personal fitness and treating my body like a well-maintained sports car.”

“I’m a professional and my body is the product, so I want it to be the best,” Ashley adds. “I have a full time personal trainer who watches everything I eat and is meticulous at the various training elements I use to help create and maintain the perfect body.”

“There is a huge market for fitness and health — they all strive for and love beautiful bodies and I’m capturing their attention,” Ashley concludes. “Maybe they will be a fan of my porn or fetish videos, or maybe they just want to keep up with my progress in the field of fitness.”
