Freaking idiots - can I vent here?

I couldn't agree with you more Kath. I had a similar experience with a sponsor. They had one of these sites that was "multi niche" like "teen lesbians" which could go into either teens or lesbians. (but it wasn't teen lesbians, I'm just giving an example)

So I was asking which way should I approach it for TGP, as a teens site or as a lesbians site. (this is a bad example because I know everyone's gonna say "teens site!" but you know what I mean)

Anyway the outcome, which is the whole point of the story, is that the guy said to me "I have no idea. I've never even seen a TGP." I was frustrated to no end.

Marketing good and services is one thing, but I think marketing adult is an entirely different ballgame. You have to be really perverted and think like the surfer. I don't think it's something that a person with a degree can just walk into.
