How to make sex sell?

[hollisterb]

Hey guys, I need some help with a project I tried a few months back but got discouraged.

Ok so by profession I do web/graphic design for an agency and freelance a little.

A while back I wanted to launch a calendar which I was aiming specifically at the university crowd. The way I was going to make money off it was to get money off advertisers - the calendar was going to be given for free to students outside the university.

The calendar features real girls from the university and I had done the shoot and retouches myself.

Here is an example of a pic -

I have all the materials ready - I just need to print it and get it out there but I was wondering if you guys can help me with other ways I could make this more interesting to businesses.

Even if I need I have the girls at hand if I want them to do something. Like when I print the calendars I plan on getting them to go out and sell the calendars directly and give them %.

So I need ideas to make sex sell...new ideas. I was thinking of doing events once a month too with the brand I had in mind, once I had made the profit from the calendar.

That make sense?

Sex is the one thing that sells itself.

The pic is not that interesting but you could probably sell a few calenders. Be better if you could make the shots "themed". You know, funny and interesting as well as hot. If the pics make some college guy go tell his buddy about them ("dude, you gotta see this") ... well then you're really on to something

good job with the retouches

good job with the retouches

I disagree... the retouch was overdone... it fucked up the eyes...

look at the eyes in the original, then look at the eyes in the retouch... her left eye on the retouch looks off... it makes her look kinda cross eyed and mildly retarded...

my advice to the OP, tone down the retouching just a bit... if you try too hard to make the chick look perfect you just end up with an image that looks too glossy and fake...

Awesome

Get the calenders made, then make an affiliate program to sell them, go all over the place to adult forums and get affiliates to sell them

You can go the gimmick route and have the girls wear funky costumes when selling the calendars. Contact the campus newspapers.

Give the calendars away for free, charge shipping, give the buyers access to a members area with pics of college girls, charge $29 a month,
