Question
Mr. Pepper,
My name is Pete and I am a Rutgers college student in New Jersey. A number of my female acquaintances have expressed a desire to enter the adult film industry and have requested my assistance in this regard, specifically in the location of reputable studios. I would like to ask what, in your opinion would be the best way of advancing this goal while positioning myself in such a manner as to profit financially from this venture. Any assistance you can offer in this matter will be greatly appreciated. All due deference to New Jersey's succinct and rational legislature will be given of course.
Thank you for your time,
Pete
Pete,
Always good to hear from someone at my alma mater. Many of the adult talent agencies offer finders' fees for individuals that refer them talent that they ultimately accept.
Here is a list of some of the reputable agencies. I don't know which ones offer referral fees, but feel free to contact them to inquire.
