About christina Cicchelli Expertise if you are seeking information on how to break into the adult industry, how to use pornography to enhance your sex life, how to find pornography that turns you on, and also how to make a living as an adult performer - then I'm the lady to speak to!
Getting into the adult industry can be easy, but to survive in the industry and find the best direction for yourself in this field is essential. As a former porn actress, I understand the pitfalls and successes that the porn industry has to offer. Pornography is a business, one that is patronized by a majority of us - whether it's by downloading a piece of an adult movie or buying a book by Jenna Jameson. You, too, can become a part of this industry. But, avoiding the mistakes and scams will make it easier for you. Also, knowing the pay rate and how to successfully chart your career will help you stay focused while having fun on set.
For those not interested in getting into porn, you might want to consider how adult films can help your sex life. Maybe you're searching for the right type of smut to satisfy you and/or your lover for a night, or maybe you want to make a private movie of your own. Contact me for help and guidance.
PLEASE DON'T ASK ME ABOUT LEGALITIES, LICENSES, PERMITS, OR ABOUT WHAT YOU LEGALLY NEED TO START YOUR OWN PORN BUSINESS -- i will prove unhelpful. Sorry.

Question Hi again. I was thinking about being maybe a driver for the talent. I'm not interested at all in being nude or performing. That's really the only option I know of. Any advise u have would be greatly appriciated and thank you for what time you may spend with any answers.
Answer Hey Charlie,
There are plenty of opportunities where you can use your driving skills in the adult industry. Porn stars aren't the only one who need to get from A to B - escorts, dancers, and even pro dommes need a driver to take them drive them to different destinations during late nights, take them to meet outcall clients, and remain at that destination just in case anything goes wrong.
A big plus is if you own a car or SUV (Performers normally carry with them a suitcase filled with extra clothes, make-up, or items they may need for the job)! Make sure it's in good condition and always kept clean. Your vehicle is your business and it should reflect that. Some businesses already possess transportation, but by providing your own car, you can quickly run your own transportation company for sex workers.
You can start looking on adult classifieds like Sexy Jobs Online (sexyjobs.com) and search for positions that specifically have to do with transportation. They should list their requirements and expectations, but really take the time and let your employer know why you're the best fit.
Of course, not every company is going to put a listing in the classifieds for a driver. So, what I also recommend is to research the field you're about to get into. How can you provide quality service for your clients?
1) Adult Performers/Porn actors: If you want to cater to these companies, then network! Find out where the major studios are. Familiarize yourself with the important places and locations you'll need to know so you can have that information in hand.
2) Exotic Dancers/Entertainers: Exotic dancers may need a driver that can take them from the club back home and vice versa. There are featured entertainers who may need a chauffeur to take them from their hotel or club and vice versa. Familiarize yourself with all the clubs in your area. Give them business cards. Make yourself personable, professional, and friendly so that the talent and the companies can trust you.
3) Escorts/Pro-Dommes: As a professional dominatrix, I relied heavily on my driver to get me to appointments on time. I trusted him to stay patiently nearby while i was at my appointment. And, eventually, when I had other jobs and other bookings, then I knew I could call him and use his service when he was available. For these particular sex workers, your reliability and your punctuality is crucial. I would suggest you also reach out to escort services and agencies in your area. You can also reach out to BDSM dungeons as well.
If you have reliable referrals, then make sure to have them handy. If you learn to network and communicate with people in this industry, you will soon find yourself making a profitable career as a driver.
