New here, need help with XBIZ, AVN & Internext

[John St John]

How can we get free tickets for XBIZ, AVN & Internext?

Any help for starting a profitable adult & affiliate business is appreciated.

Just turn up, hold your head up high, and walk straight in!

Anyone asks for tickets, just laugh and say 'Do you NOT know who I am???'

Worked for me at AVNs many times. They even gave me a badge with two little red ribbons once, that meant 'Access ALL Areas'

Welcome to the zoo. Nobody rides for free.

Well not a good way to start in the business if you can't pay to go to a trade show or afford a couple hundred bucks for a ticket.

If you want help starting a adult business realize you'll need money and I can't think of anyone who's going to give away secrets without getting paid. You'll need to find your own golden goose for that

The Paul Markham Know How Forum is a good start

In theory you sign up for an affiliate program, you build links with your referral code and some great sales copy and illustrative imagery, you get paid, and you can attend Internext as an affiliate.

A small amount of reading and typing is required. It's recommended, of course, that you have a good lawyer, and accountant, and some discipline, as well as another way to pay for rent, groceries, your other essential needs.

It's possible to get a free ticket to Internext and AVN but have gigantic bills for your webhosting, traffic generation.

The magic is breaking even or earning a small profit, and not getting run out of town for being a weird pervert on the internet. Attending Internext and really listening in the panels is a pretty good start.

don't forget about the free hosting and free content ...
you will be able to retire by the end of the year ...

XBIZ tickets to shows are free if you're a member of XBIZ.net. You just need your username.

Like someone said above, if you're an affiliate you can get into Internext/AVN. Otherwise they are selling a very reasonably priced combo pass. Don't let that stop you from going.

I think asking questions to save a few hundred bucks is pretty smart, and if you find a way to save money, but had money to spend on something you may have budgeted for, now you have a couple hundred bucks to spend on promo materials, your start up costs and lawyer, domains.

I trade secrets. Full disclosure, though, I'm not really allowed to earn very much money without losing healthcare, so making a small amount of beer money, or breaking even over the year for tax purposes, makes being "just an affiliate" make sense for me. I am also into the idea that there can be a community spirit here and we can sort of look out for other webmasters, at least those we've met in person and seem to not be entirely evil.

Even if all the great opportunities for signing up other English speaking webmasters with your referral link, at least for adult, have sort have dried up, there's maybe some good in being friendly and helpful to the newcomer who is brave enough to ask questions and actually try to show up in person.

I actually "won" a ticket that would have been free for me anyway in a contest on the Netpond board, the first time I came to Internext, and I didn't really make much money until I met a few people in the flesh and owned a little promo content (all SFW, BTW) that I could use to just build pages and links for spider food.

You have to be cool like me. And you have to be extra cool like CurrentlySober, Nikki99 and Legacy. When you are that cool, everyone wants to sponsor you for everything. When you are that cool you just walk past any entrance, tell the bouncers at any party to go fuck themslves, and watch the pornstars break their contracts instantly to be with you instead. Bartenders pour you the top-shelf booze, and leave the speed rails for the affiliates and other common folk like AdultB2B. :D

What I would do is just walk in behind the bar, and pour my own drinks myself...

When the bar staff challenged me, I'd say, good job lads, THIS is what we expect of you - Dont worry, the higher ups will be told you are doing a great job...

Its just confidence really. Confidence with a capital C.O.N. - CONfidence... Its right there in the word itself
