Joe Brandi on Unprofessionalism in the Adult Industry

http://adultfyi.com/read.php?ID=30447------------------------------------------ Joe Brandi writes on www.joebrandi.net: Heres my gripe. Now granted I work insane hours as most of you who know me know. I am up at 8am and usually work until 1-2 am 6 days..sometimes 7 days a week. I do not expect everyone to have my drive, but I have always been like this since I was a kid. Now, being older, Im addicted to work ( and money ) and have set goals. Again..its not for everyone. With that being said, I come from a finance background. I was a Financial Advisor for over 10 years and it is much different then this industry and it is rather annoying the lack of professionalism I deal with daily from people who havent a clue. I have run some of the biggest brokerage firms in Long Island and have trained many on how to make money as a broker. If you worked for me then you did business the right way..all the time. NO ONE..and I repeat NO ONE is more busy then me or cant pick up the phone or reply to an email that takes 1 minute to do. This industry for the most part is filled with good people but most have not a clue on business. You get kids who are "affiliate managers" who do not know their ass from their elbow, you get website "owners" who think they are the biggest best thing in the world because they make $5-10k a month. If you make $1 or $50,000 you should still be professional and have respect to others. Now granted as an Owner of my company I am very anal. I dont like having anyone do anything for me because I want it done my way and trust no one with my money or business. I make all the decisions daily. Problem is that when you have people in this industry contact you they usually have to go higher up to get an answer and thats where my temper starts. Dont contact me and then wait a week to get back to me. You snooze you lose in this world and there does not seem to be enough intelligence when it comes to decision making. Owners are having people represent their company who really shouldnt be. I could make a list of people that I consider rude, disrespectful and again..unprofessional. I hate IM's and I hate emails. If you want to do business then pick up the phone...introduce yourself...and get to business. Instant messages is not a way to conduct business. I have closed multi-million dollar deals over the phone in minutes. I raised millions from investors that I have never met face to face.....not on an Instant Messenger that has no personality. You can get a good feel of the intelligence level of an individual over the phone..not so much on Instant Messenger and I think that is why many hide behind it. So starting today I have decided that instant messenger is only available to people I already have a business relationship with. If anyone want to do business with me or any company I work for then they will have to call. IM takes way to much time as well and honestly I have no...well, time for it. --------------------------------------------- Dino Velvet says....Joe does not understand Bush I's new world order platform. Just like my grandfather couldn’t operate a computer or even for that fact a word processor....Joe needs to get with the times or he will face extinction or at least be put on the endangered species list.

I'm sick of these fucking cocksuckers who get into porn after being so 'successful' in a legitimate line of work (both whores and guys).We're supposed to believe that all these people walk out on successful careers to get involved with a shady, sleazy business like porn? Fucking liars. Every one of them...
I don't know about that. I'm a fairly successful corporate lawyer making almost $300K per year but I'm thinking about getting into porn myself. I don't know if that's the meth talking to me or not, but the idea of spending my days fucking some stoned, amoral whore in the ass instead of poring over contracts late into the night with some stoned, amoral whore -- who won't let me fuck her in her rapidly-expanding ass -- is very attractive.

Perhaps. But there's also the problem of the stoned, amoral whore in the office coming back and showing her face again after I'm through with her, whereas the porn whore collects her scene fee and leaves, perhaps after getting her fix in my bathroom.
Law firms get sued for $25 million if the lawyers have game in the office. We have had some epic weekend blow-outs though.

He basically underscored the point I made a while back....when it comes to a guy and the whore(s) he chooses, ultimately, when all is said and done (and done and DONE).....a guy pays the whore to LEAVE.
But Giajo's question is not without a little merit...lets assume for a moment, the admiral lives a solid but not frivolous lifestyle, making his 300k a year, with solid investments, owns his own decent house, drives a good but not ridiculous car (BMW-ish, not a fckng Highline Mercedes or worse, a JAG), and keeps his life without complications (i.e. no bitchy girlfriend who regularly plays the PMS card and NEVER pays for any of her own shit.) He can probably afford a (NON porn star) whore in the 500-1000 per hr range half a dozen times a year, with each session topping out at a total expenditure of 2500-3000 .... which means, depending on the chemistry between the whore and the admiral, the whore's situation, her drug habits, the day of the week he chooses to see her, and a myriad of other subtle factors, he is looking at sessions of 3 hours up to a full night. That gives him easily enough time to do and explore all his most sick desires and act them out.
But as far as finding these whores, well that takes time, and also depends on his NON-financial assets. Is he even slightly cute, funny, charming, a good cook, a good listener....some of it is chance, meeting the right chick can happen unexpectedly and you must SEIZE the opportunity (assuming he even recognizes it.)
I didnt build my roster of whores overnight....Burg's Babylon wasnt built in a year...it has taken many years, with whores coming and going, and meeting them at all manner of venues and places...strip clubs (the best place to start in my opinion, especially THESE days with all the young, corrupt, lazy, HORNY under-25 chickies who were raised on porn and who want the INSTANT money and fame they see or perceive porn chicks getting...OR, the over 30 strippers, desperate to compete with the younger bimbettes who taunt them in the dressing rooms, will DO ANYTHING to throw it back in their face and prove to themselves they are still HOTT); Business conventions and functions (if he is a lawyer, this should be easy...meeting quality whores at big company bashes is like shooting fish in a barrel); Hotel and casino bars (just weed out the desperate skanks, you can find some good whores here); and of course the usual venues, escort agencies, Nevada Brothels, and spending hours trolling the internet and taking the time to contact some whores.
Ask you friends and associates too...they may know a particularly good whore and will recommend you, thus gaining the whore's appreciation themselves (hopefully.)
But, then again, unless you are crippled like me, I too am a little puzzled why you arent just hitting the party scene and picking up chicks you DONT work with, finding a true freak, or a "pseudo-whore" (a civilian chick who, after you blow $$$ on dinner and whatever, lets you plow her ass like Farmer Ted and then forgets your name the next morning...)

Maybe it is I that is missing the underlying point....but this is actually about how general business is transacted. No one wants to speak on the phone directly to someone for clarity of the impending deal anymore. They want to use IM or text message or even email.....none of witch can be used to gage a person’s demeanor or get everything out in the open at once. It would be the same version of people playing phone tag and never picking up the phone just letting the machine get it and screening their calls.....don’t get me wrong email has its place…to finalize a business transaction and texting is great when a person is lost or on their way to a meeting or work.
There is no problem with the abundance of whores...its just what role they wish to play in that world....strippers, escorts and pw's are all very much alike but yet surprisingly somewhat shockingly different. The dancer/escort think of men as tricks...they don’t seem to understand or realize that the guy she’s banging with in a scene does it just as her, its simply only a job...I mean he gets paid too as well right? Escorts don’t typically want to be known...they want to be behind in the cloke of anonymity...where they will either fuck but only off camera or do a true trick and not fuck at all...with an artistic phrase like.." prostitution is illegal...your just paying me for my time as you would your psychiatrist”. Strippers also want the cloke of anonymity and as such they never want to have something come back 10 years later and bite them on the ass....such as photos or a videotape. They might get naked on stage and suck and fuck in the champagne room...but never in front of the camera....
Both strippers and escorts think everyone is diseased anyway...so real sex with without some type of protection would probably never happen anyways….test or no test.
So for me...I agree with Joe as to the fact that IM and texting are VERY highly impersonal ways of communicating that have been the new norm for society...at least for the age range of girls that sells product in the adult industry.
As for Burg man you got it easy…….you don’t have them sign “model releases” and shove a camera in their face…hell if you met them at a strip club…you don’t have to check their ID’s for 2257’s……your also non threatening….you don’t come off as the type of serial killer type….as the last face the whore will see before her demise….oh and you have whore references…..since other whores will vouch for you…..it gives you instant Carte Blanche.

FWIW, I have no clue who you are, but I agree that people who have no business relationship with you shouldn't be IM'ing you (or anyone) to try and set something up. Totally unprofessional and a waste of time.
That said, after the initial telephone call, I really prefer email - much more efficient and hardly ever a disagreement about what was talked about.
