ADULT BOOK & VIDEO CLUB

For Mature Audiences Only

It is not the intention of this publication to proliferate or encourage 
sexually oriented merchandise. However, as an observer of entrepreneurial 
activities, this medium would be naive and pretentious to ignore a 
profitable, legal business that could possibly be of interesdt to others.
  
The concept is plain and simple. Renting video tapes is profitable business.  
Renting adult videos is even more profitable.
Most adults will watch x-rated tapes only occasionally. This attitude does 
not warrant them to purchase video tapes. They would rather pay a premium 
to rent the tapes that they want.

  BUY WHOLESALE Sources for adult videos include local distributors, 
  used tape distributors, and catalog houses.
  The average adult video costs $40. In volume, you can buy them 
  wholesale for around $15 each.

  RENTAL REVENUES Since adult videos are not sensitive to release 
  schedules, they do not get dated in the same manner as theatrical 
  films. As a result, adult videos generally enjoy a longer shelf 
  life.

Because of this, it can be rented more often and over a longer period of 
time. Where the average video can be rented approximately 40 times over a 
period of 12 months, adult videos can extend well in to 50 or 60 times.

If you rent your videos even at $2 each, you can expect rental revenues of 
around $100 per tape per year.


If you purchased the video for $15, you have just multiplied your investment 
4 times. Furthermore, you can offer your year-old tapes for sale for around 
$12 each. (Note that selling adult videos across state lines is a Federal 
offense. Ifd you want to sell tapes, sell them to your members in your 
local area. Likewise, you should check your local zoning regulations 
regarding this business.)
