I’ve seen some incredibly strange things make money over the years, but this is one of those stories that even I find hard to believe… but, as we know, different horses for different courses…
Different people like different things… as you’ll soon find out.
Terri and Michael Martin are a young married couple from Bristol here in the UK who are making around £10,000 a month sharing pictures and videos of themselves dressed up as fictional characters such as Tarzan and Jane.
I kid you not!
The pictures are – I believe – on the raunchy side. I don’t know how raunchy, and to be honest looking at both of them, I don’t want to either.
I don’t mean to be disparaging, but they are hardly a young Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
They have a look about them which reminds me more of 80s comedy pair ‘Little and Large’ and the legends of silent movies, ‘Laurel and Hardy’.
Sexy they are not!
Take a look and decide for yourself: Terri and Michael Martin
Yet… here they are making £10,000 each month from people who are paying to see their pictures and videos.
So what does that tell you?
It tells me that either I don’t know what ‘sexy’ is these days… or they have managed to nicely tap into a unique and profitable niche.
I’m opting for the latter.
Terri and Michael both quit their jobs during lockdown to focus on running their raunchy online business.
It is a full time job taking adult focused pictures, sharing them online while chatting with paying fans, but the rewards are clearly worth it for the pair.
The couple charge £12.99 per person, per month or £124.70 for a whole year if you pay upfront.
It started when the couple began a TikTok channel broadcasting live from their hot tub.
There’s always a hot tub involved somewhere!
Don’t ask me what they were doing, I haven’t got a clue but I don’t think TikTok allows anything too risqué… but I could be wrong.
I just don’t know anymore!
Thousands of people began to tune into their live broadcasts.
The popularity of the live hot tub broadcasts led Terri to open up accounts on Only Fans and Admire Me where she uploaded content which could be accessed only by paying a subscription fee.
This was a good decision on her part.
Thanks to an influx of paying fans, Terri was soon able to leave her job as a shop assistant and focus more on her new business.
Husband Michael began to get jealous of Terri spending all of her time on the phone answering messages and chatting to fans. He wasn’t happy…

Terri then told Michael that she was getting a lot of requests for pictures and videos of the two of them together and so he too joined her in the venture which now rakes in around £10,000 per month.
Michael left his delivery driver job not long after to concentrate on the business.
He says that the work involved is like any other job in that it requires 40 or so dedicated hours a week.
It isn’t as simple as taking a few photos, adding them online and then sitting back and counting the money.
But it is far better than working a manual job because the money is obviously far better, the work isn’t strenuous and they both enjoy what they do.
They share their content on Only Fans and Admire Me which are platforms popular with adult stars who like to share explicit content.
Only Fans isn’t strictly for adult content but it has become incredibly popular over the years with adult starts because of its easy to use subscription system.
Both Only Fans and Admire Me offer a subscription based membership website without the need to spend time and money having one built for you.
People can open up a profile today and potentially start to make money once they have been approved.
You could open up an Only Fans account and use it to run any kind of business where people are happy to pay you a monthly fee to access information and content.
However, I recommend using other platforms such as Patreon for non adult focused businesses as Only Fans’ popularity and reputation for adult content may be a hindrance to a more wholesome business.
The story about Terri and Michael highlights the power of the subscription business model.
Apart from the constant ‘chatting’ with fans, which is part of the subscription fee, the content is basically done once and then shared online with multiple paying people.
To earn £10,000 a bricklayer needs to spend months building walls or a building of some description for one or two clients.
For £10,000, a subscription business can require as little as a short video being recorded and upload online.
That example does depend on what the content is, how many subscribers the subscription business has and how much those subscribers pay.
Obviously I am not suggesting for one minute that you and your nearest and dearest start dressing up as popular fictional characters and share raunchy photos online for money – unless you are into that kind of thing – but you can clearly see how doing something once and sharing it to hundreds or thousands of people for a fee can create a large monthly income.
500 people paying just £9.99 each month is £4,995.
Minus any platform fees, that would be somewhere around £4,500 for sharing specific content which is seen by 500 people.
That content could be no more than ten pieces of content which could take as little as a day to create.
Imagine having 1,000 people paying to have access to your content.
Today, thanks to the technology we have at our disposal, each and every one of us can create content and publish it online within a matter of minutes and have that content seen by thousands of people for many years to come.
Thanks to platforms like Only Fans, Admire Me, Patreon and a whole lot more, we can start a subscription business today without any financial outlay or having to learn any new technical skills.
If you can post to Facebook, you can post to any of those platforms I have named.
The opportunity available to us today is mind blowing when you really sit down and think about it.
And it doesn’t have to be in the adult industry either as you will see in this article I published here:
How To Cash In With A Subscription Based Business
Subscription businesses are a fantastic way to make money and from what I can see, subscription businesses are growing in popularity and there appears to be no slowing down.
They are simple to set up and easy to manage.
Is this something you should consider as a way to make extra money each month?
Kind regards

PS… Memberships and subscription businesses are about sharing content which either informs or entertains.
The content could be one or more of the following.
- Written in posts or in downloadable PDF
- Audio like podcasts or music
- Video
- Photos and images
It doesn’t matter what the content format is, as long as it is good and delivers what the subscriber is paying for.
