LOS ANGELES—When TNV Eric launched his site TNVGirls.com in 2003 featuring fresh-faced teens in all-girl scenarios, he knew he was on to something after subscriptions began going through the roof.
As fans of the site clamored for boy/girl content in recent years featuring his comely girls next door, he began offering the content as custom videos on Clips4Sale. But as demand snowballed, Eric agreed to develop a new site just for boy/girl content, NextDoorSins.com, which made its debut this month.
“Ideally, Next Door Sins would not only feature models who are authentic girl-next-door types, but the scenarios also would feel authentic and highly credible,” Eric said. “I want members to relate to the guy in the videos because, in reality, they would be constrained from acting inappropriately. However, these scenes offer a world where ‘what if’ comes into play. But going off the feedback I've received so far, I'm happy to say our members' itches are being scratched!”
The site gives fans of fresh-faced all-natural girls a variety of erotic boy/girl scenarios shot in a cinematic style that echoes production values of big budget features. The newest scenes include “Closing the Deal,” a tale of Riley, a young real estate broker willing to do anything to close a deal, and “Catering Girls,” which tells the story to two youthful caterers mixing business with pleasure as they double team their boss.
The site, like the flagship TNVGirls portal, features youthful talent selected by its in-house talent evaluators who scour the country for young women with the fresh-faced look the TNV brand is known for. But Eric admitted it’s not easy to find models for the site who meet the stringent criteria.
Having taken the name of a website which featured videos of sexy girls in short skirts and body hugging cocktail dresses, called Thursday Night Videos, TNVGirls has been a synonymous with unique content that features sexy models with an approachable girl-next-door look, and NextDoorSins aims to continue that signature style.
But even as the new site rolls out to much fanfare from its TNV fan base, Eric is also counting on a marketing effort that includes social media and cross-promotional efforts with other brands with a focus on young talent.
“Besides our own recruiting we've been fortunate enough to feature some adult actresses that will be familiar to many of you: Jill Kassidy, Zoe Bloom, Aften Opal, Kyler Quinn, to name a few,” Eric said. “I’ve always been more product oriented, but I am hopeful that after attending so many conferences and shows that hopefully I will have picked up something marketing-wise to where I can focus on brand awareness. Obviously Pornhub comes to mind. Several of my scenes have already made their way to Pornhub and have garnered millions of views to which I have not benefited!”
But with a more crowded marketplace and in the midst of the coronavirus and economic crises, Eric is optimistic about the new site even as production of new scenes is at a standstill due to the pandemic.
“Fortunately, I have a sizeable reserve when it comes to content for NextDoorSins that could last a few years, hopefully it won't come to that,” he said. “TNVGirls is another story but I have already found some cam girls who are producing content for me while they shelter-in-place. If you are still around in this business, then you have weathered more than one economic crisis. The key is to have content valued enough by your customers so when they're deciding on what they're cutting out from their budget, it won't be your site!”
But dealing with a down economy isn’t new to Eric, who dealt with the 2008 recession by coming out stronger on the other side. Having worked in the tech sector and entering the industry as an outsider gave him the edge he needed for success.
“It started because I listened to the radio during my long commute into L.A., and once heard how the top searches on the internet were for porn and nude celebrities. At that moment, it dawned on me this was something I could do at home,” he recalled. “I noticed right away in the adult space there was a severe shortage of authentic girl-next-door sites so I figured I would explore that niche.”
Eric admitted that much of his success comes from the authenticity and realism of his videos, many of which are based upon actual situations.
“Like comedians who scour the newspapers nationwide for content to satire, I too scour the nation’s newspapers,” he said. “But instead of politics, I look for sexual scandals to use as story lines for my videos.”
