  • How do we make SLR cool?

I think I found Sex Like Real after I discovered VR porn on the Quest 1 which lead me to the Handy and the Handy listed SLR as one of their primary partners .

I think the biggest way to increase interest in SLR would be to add Previews that people unfamiliar with VR Porn can stumble upon . Is it possible to put video intros that have pretty girls clothed and leading up to the sex On Youtube or another website ? is it possible To post A weekly free video that anyone can access here on SLR ? For Members and the curious alike?

Porn is a unique media in that I think most people consume it only when they are horny or bored looking to get horny . So the thing is you have to give their horny bored, curiosity a taste and hope they make SLR their go-to place for VR porn content.

It only took a few VR porn videos before I became super interested in VR Porn in general and I think A lot of VR Porn is still relatively unknown .

I think the SLR + Handy ( or your new haptic device) messaging should be much more pronounced. Having someone like Karma RX or some other smokeshow stroke a cucumber for a minute straight while making some sexy ASMR noises and light dirty talk , have Real Cucumber script that , show a Handy or other device moving along with the strokes in a Youtube video and I think you'll stoke a lot of curiosity if that pops up online.

I feel like the weirdest thing about VR Porn is how quiet the notion of " feeling the girls" you watch is to the general public. I've been watching porn for a long ass time and how many times have I fantasized how it would be to fuck a pornstar and SLR has a portal where you can do that to hundreds of women as often as you like ? I think this is kind of a criminally undersold aspect of SLR and Haptic VR porn in general .

Granted I know the moment that message gets out there the media outrage will be INSANE but also let's be real how often have people been outraged publically and stroking their dicks privately?

    doublevr . While we are doing all the cool tech things it has to be content winning hearts and souls

    Indeed.

    Voice controlled interactive would be way cool. For example, the performer asks what the viewer wants to see next and then does what the viewer says.

    Haptics that stimulate more than just genitals would be very good and immersive as well.

    Discovering and producing great new performers would be cool.

    Adult games? I don't play many games--would they increase engagement? I've tried a couple on steam and they suck. They would need to be very good.

    Vrsumo2017 have a hottie sitting bedside reading me a bed time storie.

    This be pertty good as an intro, bedtime story didn't help me sleep so we try something else 😏

      well with how prevalent gaming is and anime with alot of the younger crowd of legal age, Cosplay would be very eye catching. so much potential and obviously you have fans of the original shows im sure going crazy over seeing a hot character from a show they watch becoming a porn parody . But apply the same story setup with how you did with Lexi Luna and Prestine. Crystal Chase’s scene as Tsunade 😍, Chloe surreal in her Senpai scene, Violet Myers in her My Hero Academia scene, and if you have seen Jewelz Blue in her many cosplay scenes, just wow. It literally attracts plenty of the younger crowd who would be potentially new customers .

      doublevr I don't think the goal should be to become tiktok, it is a completely different business model
      This is porn, once guys are done they stop watching so retention is not gonna be the same

      For marketing, I'd make 3-5 great videos free to watch, then advertise this

      If you care about retention (not sure why), look at the edging videos, those probably do well in terms of viewtime I imagine:

      Kolaches They want ideas to grow, well then there they go hahaha
      Could you imagine that type of collab shot on their new hacked 8k canon system, the hype something like that would get online and on social media, it would literally break the internet haha

      Vrsumo2017 She's cute but the point is to cause a frenzy to jump and get a VR headset and a scene with her will simply be just another VR scene just like the rest, there is no demand there that you would get from the Belle brand and following.

      (crazy post incoming 😝 )

      SLR alredy is cool! There's so much awesome content and the technology for haptics, passthrough AR, BYOJ, all of the categories, etc. is miles beyond any other platform I've seen.

      As someone that got into everything by mistake during the pandemic, I think there's still a educational barrier to becoming mainstream. I originally got a VR headset to play video games. I learned about teledildonics and then happened upon SLR for haptics.

      I feel like most people still get VR headsets for video games, not porn. The first time I tried VR porn I was pretty skeptical but had my mind totally blown. It was so much better than I thought it would be.

      A major challenge to mainstream adoption is the VR headset barrier. The top 2D porn sites get billions of visits per month. Most of those users would give a kidney for the VR experience if they tried it. To convert them there has to be a different onboarding flow then what's currently set up...

      As a compulsive 2D porn user, the experience of a tube site is generally pretty standard. I would have some category of porn in mind and search for a new video (which is addictive because of the variable results). Check a few pages, find a video, jerk off, done.

      You could post SLRO 2D and VR videos on the major tube sites as a hook into the conventional 2D porn user flow. They could see snippets of the content and be pulled into the main SLR site. The SLRO videos are top notch so I feel like the 2D videos would get millions of views.

      I don't really know anything about sales funnel numbers but making up a scenario here... Let's say there's like 1 million views per month of SLRO content on major tube sites. The clickthrough rate to the SLR site is like 5%, so 50,000 users. Then 2% conversion after that to some level of subscription would be 1,000 users.

      The 2D content is coming out so they could enjoy stuff in 2D which is fine. If they like that cool. They're missing the whole experience of VR but they have no idea that it exists yet, so whatever.

      What really gets them is if they can try VR! They'll love it, it's more a matter of getting them to do VR.

      Google Cardboard doesn't seem like a bad way to go (disclaimer: I've never actually tried it, is it usable VR?). It's supposed to be $4 to manufacture and maybe less at scale. If you could give that to new 2D users for free for all subscription levels, then it would help onboard them into the world of VR porn. The expense is worth it if you can convert them because they'll be much more likely to stick with SLR. It's already the best VR porn platform for all the tech and content reasons. Why change if they already have a subscription too?

      Then it's off to the races with all the rest of the niche stuff like a SLR haptic device, etc.

      Maybe try a limited run of just giving away Google Cardboard with this flow to anyone who signs up for email? Anything to make them a VR user! Once they experience the difference between 2D and VR they'll be good to go.

      For some period of time while the focus is on growing, it's kind of about doing things that don't scale. You need to convert as many people as possible to make VR relevant.

      After that, the subscription cost is a barrier for sure, but it's a lot smaller than the VR onboarding problem. SLR has lots of reasons why it's the best VR platform. It won't retain everyone that tries but it probably keeps the majority of users.

      Going back to the made up sales funnel numbers, what if the Google Cardboard test bumped the conversion for a SLR subscription to 10%? That would be 5,000 users per month which is pretty awesome. IDK when it becomes relevant enough to grow VR porn users through organic growth but it has to start getting noticed by the mainstream at some point.

      Making VR relevant to normal porn users seems like the first challenge to scaling.

        Kolaches VR is probably a cool thing to try, but it's nowhere as engaging as tube sites with all the crazy content they have got. It's content overdose for every taste and cringe.

        On SLR we have it super vanilla because of compliance and professional production. There's no room for amateurs to shoot VR like they would shoot tube videos with their phones. Those tubes are still semi-criminal business and it's not even clear how they can operate it. Compliance is an absolute must for us.

        Let's see what we can get expanding into flat. Hopefully we can get all the cam girls with their smartphones

        dudder VR headsets aren't cheap and buying one for porn is a big commitment if you haven't experienced VR before. Free Cardboard style headsets could be a cheap way to provide a taste of VR and convince people to make that commitment, but I believe there would be many more people who would be turned off by that experience or wouldn't be able to figure out how to get it all to work.

        Most guys, I bet, are more than satisfied with the unlimited free porn of every description available on tubes sites, especially when it can be watched anywhere, at any time, on a smartphone. It's hard to imagine VR even beginning to compete with that.

          Hairsational iPhones aren't cheap either, but people buy them like crazy. VR headsets are nowhere where iPads are.

          I do agree on tubes part.

          What surprises me is that there's no single thing in VR that would make it crazy. It's more of a prototype how things are now

            I agree; however, this type of content, which you'll find a lot of through VRAllure, removes the elements of striptease that are always fun. The key to a good story is that it takes the viewer forward through various stages of disclosure and reveal.

            doublevr iPhones aren't cheap

            In many countries, folks buy cellphones second-hand. A second-hand HMD would be difficult to find and much more costly.

            For the next year users will still be using Android devices as an introduction to VR. Side-loading DeoVR for Android through APKPure is easy and a great option for those of us forced to travel. I use it still some of the time.
