This is extremely important in the adult business. There are a tremendous amount of opportunities available in the adult Internet world and sometimes, the amount of opportunities can be overwhelming. A solid business plan will guide you to success and keep you focused.
The first step is to take personal inventory. Write down all the things that you enjoy doing and all the things that you don’t enjoy doing. Write down your strengths and weaknesses. Write down what equipment that you have. Write down how much money you have and anybody that you could ask for money. This list will give you a great place to start.
The next step is serious research. It amazes me how many people want to start an Adult Internet business that have never joined an adult site. Take out that credit card and join some sites. See what it feels like for a customer. Figure out how these companies charge people money. How do they handle their customer service? How do they update their member’s areas? It is extremely important to spend a lot of time learning how the adult Internet works. Click on banners, get caught in circles jerks, click everywhere and look everywhere. Find out what companies are doing what and why they are doing what they are doing. The most amazing aspect about research on the Internet is that you don’t have to leave your chair. You can learn everything you need to know from the click of a mouse and can become a millionaire without ever leaving your room.
Now you need to figure out what aspect of the business you want to tackle. There is a tremendous amount of ways to make money in this business. Some ways make a lot more money than others. Write down all the ways that money is made in this business and how much money there is to be made. Take a serious look at your personal inventory and figure out what part of the business is right for you. Do you want to sell pictures, do you want to advertise other sites, do want to write programs, do you want to do graphics, do want to recruit models, do you want to sell memberships, do you want to sell traffic? After you have done this, find the companies that are successful doing what you want to do and ask them how they do it. Most people are more than willing to help you out and will give you all of the information that you need. Don’t be afraid to approach the biggest players–they were newbies at one time themselves.
After you have gathered all your information you need to set goals for yourself. Do you want to have $42,000 in the bank at the end of the year? Do you want to make $150,000 a month? Do you want to have a brand new BMW? Do you want a new house? Do you want to be financially independent? The key is to write definitive items and then set a date by when you will have them? This will help keep you on track and give you a reason to work hard.
Now you need to make a plan of how you are going to reach the finish line. Write down all the things that you are going to need to get your business started and exactly how you are going to make the money. Figure out how much revenue that you are going to bring in and how much money it is going to take to bring in that revenue. By developing a clear-cut marketing plan you will stay on track and not lose focus.
Developing a business plan will pave the way to your success. If you were to build a skyscraper, you would not run out and start hammering wood together. You would create an exact architectural plan, so the building will not topple. Treat your business this way. By maintaining a set of goals, and a plan to achieve those goals you will far surpass your wildest imaginations. Don’t jump right in–take the time to write a business plan, you will be glad that you did!
