what would you do if you had $100k to (re)start in adult? buy traffic? buy a paysite? invest into established sites? ...? i'm serious about the budget.

Phil_smk bet 50,000 on red, and take the other half you saved and give it to the charity of your choice. :2 cents:
Surely there is an old age home for unwanted porn whores and webmasters. :winkwink:

Bingo - even I keep asking myself this very question. There are plenty of safer options available.
Consider opening a knock off of In & Out Burgers in Germany.
Every German I know that flies into California, upon leaving the airport at LAX goes to In & Out ... and they make sure to stop at the same place before departing as well. :2 cents:

Hello Due hope the family is well. Most serious of business people, keep their mouth shut and don't post ideas on this board. Maybe its my ego, but I have dust collecting on shelf full of ideas that I have not gotten around to working on.
I almost gave an idea away to some people recently, just to see them succeed in life again. Ironically there is poor follow through on their part, so they killed that opportunity. :2 cents::2 cents:

I can seriously help you but it wouldnt be freebie on a forum as its far too complex to explain in a thread post.
I will set you up with a rock solid outline if you are serious about it and willing to pay fairly.

When you are done with American Psycho, be sure to post your results.

i was running one of the bigger mgps before the tubes came, so adult was my first pick. still know some guys, and though things have changed a lot i thought my experience from back then could be useful for a new startup.

If you know some guys, and they are actually doing well in adult, you best start getting to know them better again. See if you can partner up with them on some project.

I hear taking pics at conventions is a pretty nice gig.
The best ideas are too hard to think of. You should copy a successful business model. That's how its done in adult.
|
That depends on how you personally define nice gig.
For some, making 10k a year is fantastic. For others they need at least 1 million.
Potential gross revenue before expenses is about 100,000 USD yearly.

are there models which can still be reproduced successfully (with a budget in that range)? start another big tube, buy loads of traffic for it, etc? that was my first thought actually since that's what i still have some experience with (freesites)

I personally believe the play to pay model is still best. You just need to give the customer a real good reason to "pay".:2 cents::2 cents:
Good luck on your endeavors.
