Jay Moyes of High Octane Heart Interviewed on Adult Site Broker Talk

Note: It’s awkward to be posting a press release about myself here, but Friedman was very gracious about the whole interview. This discussion was not specifically to promote myself, but to provide Friedman with some great content. We got to give some good advice, provide some perspective, and talk a little about clients.

Notice that what is deliberately missing is the URL to this web site. I didn’t think about it until I started posting the release here, yet I’m standing by that decision.

As you’ll read in the release, it’s not all about me, and this business. It’s about my clients and those I’m working with. The ending of this press release not only pushes the interview address, but also Bruce Friedman’s firm and affiliate program. Those who need me will find me. This release is about sending Bruce Friedman some love. Thank you kindly!

Jay Moyes of High Octane Heart Interviewed on Adult Site Broker Talk

Pattaya, Thailand — Jay Moyes, owner of High Octane Heart Media and PR was recently a guest on Adult Site Broker Talk, hosted by Bruce Friedman.

Moyes worked for adult news publications such as The Spectator and Adult Video News, before moving into the publicity business with Sherry Ziegelmeyer of Black and Blue Media. Ziegelmeyer passed away in 2020, prompting Moyes to make a fresh start with High Octane Heart Media and PR. Moyes was on the show to discuss how the adult business has changed, what it’s like working with the adult press, and important things to know about publicity.

Friedman joked about how hard it was to get Moyes on the air, and got some solid advice about PR reps.

“When a publicist is getting more attention than the client, that’s a red flag,” Moyes commented. “My clients, like The Dungeon Store came first… I can wait.”

Also of concern for the veteran publicist was coming back into the spotlight after the closing of Black and Blue Media.

“This was like stripping a car down to the bare frame,” noted Moyes about starting over. “It wasn’t the intended metaphor for High Octane Heart, but I wasn’t going to be pushing my business if I couldn’t even race in the game.”

Moyes gave more tips on publicity, mainstream crossover, the relationship of publicity with marketing and surviving in the adult business.

“You have to be ready to learn new tech and new media. I do graphics, because I started from the art department side, but I’ve also had to do some video editing, I’ve done coding. We’ve been waiting for 3D to catch fire, virtual has come in… It’s just a matter of when that becomes the only thing…When you’re the publicist, you’re always hustling for the client. It’s not a don’t call us, we’ll call you kind of game.”

Adult Site Broker helps sellers and buyers in the adult space come together and work out equitable deals. Friedman recently upgraded AdultSiteBroker.com and is now offering a 20 percent commission for affiliate members. Go to https://ASBcash.com to sign up for the program.

World Wide Web — The Dungeon Store, a curated collection of BDSM products, mostly created and sourced by professionals in the kinky community, is having their online, 2nd annual Procrastinator’s Kinkmas Sale, December 7-19.

“This is a family business, and we’re very big on family,” noted Anne Bryne, Owner of The Dungeon Store. “Instead of shopping so close to Thanksgiving, we and our leather family decided to skip the typical Thanksgiving Day, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday sales and give our customers time for their families and friends. And we’re rewarding them with up to 50 percent off at our website.”

Many items unavailable on the site through 2022 are now coming back by popular demand, and new items will be coming to the “One of a Kind Emporium” section daily. In addition, Liberator products are now available and more books are on the site including “Mindfucking Mindfully” by Sir Ezra and “How to Capture a Mistress” by Karen Martin.

“We’ll have discounts, surprises and when you get your holiday order in between December 7th and the 19th, it will be on the way out our door and on the way to you by the next day,” said Brittany Wilson, Brand Manager for The Dungeon Store. “And for exclusive offers, special promo codes, and event schedules, sign up for our newsletter while at our online store.”

“I Fly with Floggers” Brittany Wilson of The Dungeon Store Guests on 69 Whiskey Podcast

World Wide Web — Brittany Wilson, Brand Manager of The Dungeon Store was a guest on the 69 Whiskey Podcast, and discussed life in the family business, talked about pleasure products and gave great advice for beginners on how to be a part of the BDSM lifestyle.

69 Whiskey started as a college radio show by military veteran Eric “Dollar Store Dom” Weinstein and Co-host Motorboatin’ Matt. Once restrained by rules and boundaries, the show now comes to listeners raw, uncensored and unapologetic. Eric and Matt cover topics from drink recipes, entertainment, and everyone’s favorite positions.

Wilson has been with The Dungeon Store for over eight years. The Dungeon Store is a curated collection of bondage gear and fetish toys, mostly made in the United States by professionals in the BDSM community. Wilson and The Dungeon Store staff recently celebrated their two AVN award nominations and a partnership with Liberator sex furniture. She had quite a few stories, including challenges when it comes to traveling with kinky products.

“I fly with floggers,” said Wilson with pride. “Rule of thumb, as a vendor, is you fly Southwest. They’ve got the best baggage policy, and you put the heaviest stuff in your carry-on because that never gets weighed… Every single flogger, in the handle, had a wooden dowel, with a screw in the top. And they X-rayed it, and said ‘Oh! there’s screws in the top, so, these are weapons and you’ll have to throw them away… ‘I’m not throwing out 15 thousand dollars worth of my potential revenue… ‘In my head, I’m like, ‘How is a handful of screws used to hijack a plane? I’m going to do what? Throw them at flight attendants?’ I don’t understand…”

Wilson will be busy this weekend as The Dungeon Store will have tables at Kinkybeats at Baltimore Playhouse, Naughty Noel at Studio 58 in Pennsylvania, CC Fetish Fair in South Carolina, and Exxxotica DC at the Dulles Expo Center in Virginia.

The Dungeon Store Donates Exclusive Gorean Whip for Kinky Trivia BDSM Education

World Wide Web — The Dungeon Store has contributed a hand-crafted “Traditional Gorean Whip” to this month’s Kinky Trivia, a virtual game where contestants test their knowledge of BDSM and sexual wellness, while competing for prizes.

The flogger is also known as a “Jailer’s Cat” from The Dungeon Store’s curated collection of BDSM gear. Many of their pleasure products are handmade by professionals in the fetish scene. This particular cat is in honor of the sci-fi Gorean novels, written by John Norman, which inspired much of the male-dominated side of the fetish scene in the 1970s and 1980s.

“Big shout out to The Dungeon Store for making this beautiful item from such a well known book series!” tweeted the founders of Kinky Trivia. “An even bigger thanks for donating it to Kinky Trivia’s prize box. Make sure you check out their shop for other amazing items for your toy bag!”

Kinky Trivia hosts monthly trivia games with focused sexual education, BDSM language, consent, education, and some geeky fun to educate as well as bring a sense of community. The show creators partner with many amazing vendors, crafters, artists, and companies to create some amazing prize boxes for each month. Additional prizes this month include leather panties from MastaDon, a paddle from The Beav Woodworking, One brand condoms, and more.

“We are focused on the education of the community. You don’t need to ‘Know everything’ to play or win the game,” notes the creators of Kinky Trivia. “We want you to walk away with more information. For that reason the monthly prize box winner is drawn from a hat, or more like spun on a wheel, of the names of everyone who played!”

“The Traditional Gorean Whip is a special exclusive from our collection, and not available on our website,” said Anne Bryne, Owner of The Dungeon Store. “To purchase one, contact us at sales@thedungeonstore.com and inquire about availability and price.”

Visit http://www.TheDungeonStore.com for violet wands, floggers, paddles, kinky books and more.
