You can say a lot about the adult industry, but one thing is certain: they sure like to talk. Hence the vast opportunities for meeting each other in person or online.
If you are curious about the latest trends in the industry, want to socialize, brush arms with seasoned advertisers or top brand executives, get some insights or see a few interesting webinars – you should attend some of the events listed below.
There is only so much you can learn on your own, either from articles or ebooks. Sometimes a 5 minute conversation with an expert beats a whole night of reading. The truth is that both ways to learn what works in the adult industry are complementary.
