CYBERSPACE—Adult mega-company AWE/LiveJasmin has announced the appointment of Ramon Janga as business development manager. Janga has worked in the adult industry for more than 10 years now and has built a strong network of contacts within the webmaster world.
“We are confident in Ramon’s ability to add value to the teams due to his longstanding experience and knowledge regarding the market. We believe that Ramon will lift AWE to the next level and we are delighted to count him amongst our own,” said Karoly Papp, CEO of LiveJasmin and AWE.
The 39-year-old Janga was born in Amsterdam but moved to Curacao as a child, only to return to Holland decades later. After a few years, however, he apparently heard the call of the surf and sand andmoved back to Curacao to become a dive master and boat captain, working at the Marriott Hotel.
Janga's first contact with the adult industry occurred around that time during an industry event at the Marriott. Patrick van Kinderen (PornoPat) offered him a job as video editor, selecting samples for trailers that would make people sign up to watch the complete movie. In 2009, Ramon followed Patrick and moved back to Amsterdam yet again, where he was invited to the Webmaster Access show. He also took a job as a salesman in a sex shop in Amsterdam’s world-famous Red Light District. This job gave him insight into customers’ demands and purchase preferences, as well as helping him to get to know the big labels/brands.
In 2011 Janga moved to the Czech Republic, where he lived and worked in the biggest webcam villa in the world (Villavoyeur in Brno), during which he built a single site both for models and for shooting content.
For more than eight months he had the opportunity to study the way a professional studio runs, from the technical aspects to the day-to-day business. It gave him strong insight into the model/member side of the business.
In 2012, Ramon took the position of affiliate manager for XLove on Curacao. For three years, he worked mainly in the marketing/affiliation department.
In his new role as business development manager for AWE, Janga's mission is to find ways to raise the company to new levels. “Not only to stay on top but to always increase, improve and promote our wide range of promotional tools,” he explained. “My focus will be to make affiliates aware of all our incentives. I will also assist in getting new partners on board who are interested in promoting the No. 1 most popular video chat community.”
He added, “It is a great pleasure for me to be part of such a fantastic team, I have always looked up to LiveJasmin. The site is slick, smart and stylish. It is a high-end and high-tech product that has been leading the market for some time now.”
