How do they get away with it?

[HungBrandon]

For years I've seen those late night ads with barely legal, barely dressed bimbos in a hot tub or silk covered bed, begging you to call them now. Of course, I never had any desire to call them. But eventually I realized that those bimbos don't really asnwer the phone. In reality your more likely to get someone like Roseann Barr. Or one of the rare 60 y/o grandmothers that never smoked so she doesn't have that old raspy voice like her girlfriends in the bridge club. She is an empty-nester that has to work until she dies just to buy herself gasoline for her old tank of a car with the left blinker on non-stop, and buy heart pills that the pharmaceutical companies make windfall profits from and that medicare won't pay for nor will her pension plan at bankrupt Enron..

So anyway.. how do the late night advertisers get away with such blatan fraud?

the same way 90% of the people in this business get away with putting one thing on their tour & another in their member areas.

To be honest, I have only taken tours and never bought a membership to any porn site. I'm too cheap. So what the customer gets is not what is shown during the tour? shame shame.

it comes down to the fantasy of it. the content is often not as important as the mindfuck the user gets while viewing it. I dont know too many users coming to porn sites for the literary value of the thumbnail descriptions. even if what they see in the members section doesnt match exactly what they get in the tour, most still enjoy themselves enough to cum and cum again and again. its like roping in the calf, then let it wander in the pasture.

Brandon,

Do you work as an adult webmaster?

[coctronic]

That's funny. I wonder what a phone sex office really looks like. :goof:

Yes.. I created my own from scratch and it is my first attempt, so its very amateurish. I am in the process of editing it, mainly to delete the links to the evil paypal. I wanted a personal site. Not some formula cookie cutter site. I don't have any real content to speak of and really can't afford it yet. I also don't have the knowledge or right host to incorparate anything but regular HTML. My ISP has no support for server scripting, which is needed for things like AVS and email gathering. So charging for access seemed unfair. I just wanted a website to promote my phone ho business on NiteFlirt and sell a few pics.

Why do you ask?

When I first started surfing the net, the premium membership sites I joined gave me pretty much what they advertised, and were definitely stimulating! If a premium site was relatively small, I'd stay on for a month, but for premium sites with lots of content or regular updates, I'd stay a member for several months. Perhaps I just made the right choices!

Small AVS/AEN sites were a different story...frequently prone to exaggeration. But even so, I could find other AVS/AEN sites in the same network that had the content I was looking for.

I think the phone sex ads on TV are very good...they get the viewer worked up and tell the viewer "I waiting to talk to YOU now". It's all talk, voice, and fantasy for the one who calls. So what if the person answering the phone does not look like the person in the ad?

when we had our own phone sex lines, some of the girls were quite pretty - as were some of the guys. some were strippers looking for a change temporarily.

they ARE selling the fantasy, and that is what the callers get. since you can't see the person you talk to, the only thing that matters to people is either does talking to that person turn you on or does talking to that person get you off.

a playboy bunny you is quiet and inarticulate isn't hot and sexy on the phone - the chick who sounds sultry and can talk to you like anything is sexy - from a guy dressing in your wife's underwear to making you shave your ass - is the one that is hot and sexy on the phone.

Exactly! not just on the end of a phone line either.. at the end of a modem connection too

When I started...it was doing live video-feed shows so obviously there was a difference because we did have to look good. However, there were so many tricks-of-the-trade so to speak that customers often weren't actually seeing what they thought they were seeing (fake cumshots, fucking, bj's, etc...). As model manager I used to point out to all new models that what they are selling is fantasy. The customers don't know them as people, they know a fantasy that's being portrayed for entertainment purposes. And believe me...we had a couple models that, off-camera...without the aid of lighting and makeup....ew.

It's not fraud to use one girl in an ad and another to answer the phone. The customer is still getting what he wants...a sexy voice willing to walk through the fantasy lane in his head. And to be good at it, you have to figure out what the customer's fantasy is before he does.

My boss made a very successful company out of online phone sex marketing. SinTalk. If you want any tips or to discuss any business, please feel free to hit me up anytime Brandon.

Now...about this "Hung" part of your name......

(sorry, wouldn't be me if i didn't say something)

Your post had a niave tone to it. Though that's actually refreshing to see. Over the years I find myself getting more and more jaded. It's people like you that make the sites I like to promote.

I wish more sponsors would make site of real value rather than generic cookie cutter sites.
