I'm a clerk and i would like to make a few suggestions to people who make covers and dvd menus.
1.put a time on the cover
2.put down how many scenes
3.put down what are in each scene
4.list the stars and which scene they are in
~menus~
hustler does this now and its awesome.
1.instead of scenes list stars
2.break down scenes better
3.offer diffrent angels
4.do biographys on stars in your own company. example:
say you have sandra shine in 3 other of your productions. list them. offer a trailer if your generous enough.
5. when you offer a bonus scene put phone sex numbers or other ads there make them earn it.
why do all of this?
Educated consumer is a good buyer. I usually start 18yrs on vivid 4 hour comps. why? well they tell who is in every scene so if they like a paticular star they know who to look for and hell everyones worked for vivid at one time lol
Hustler also does something else that is really kewl.
The early barely legals had mini-plots to them. Females like them cause if they are buying a gift for thier man they have something to look forward to.
but thats content and only a suggestion for anyone looking for more female buyers.
One last thing show more past releases in your trailers and less up-comming crap.Helps my sales and gets rid of my other stock.

it's clear you've spent some time in retailing adult video. twice you've mentioned the importance of listing the TALENT. more people need to understand that more often than not, it's the TALENT that drives the sale, and NOT the genre. goes back to the comic book collector mentality i mentioned in the 'do reviews matter?' thread.
this is a good feature, but problematic because it drives up cost. multi angles mean multi cameras, which translates into added cost. cam A might be for hardcore and cam B might be for cable, but a 3rd or 4th camera (and their operators) are expenses producers tend to avoid. beyond peach (mature) titles, does anyone else consistently provide multi-angle content anymore?
the idea of a TALENT filmography placed in special features is a good one.
