Here are a few examples of some stimulating assortments of orgasmic goodies….

New Purple Bondage Gear

Hey everyone, I’m back and better than ever with some new products to showcase:

PURPLE & BLACK LEATHER RESTRAINTS COLLECTION: POSTURE COLLARS, WRIST CUFFS, & ANKLE CUFFS:

This dazzling new color combination will be sure to wow your customers! This leather set is made of firm but flexible purple Latigo leather boldly accented with black leather trim. There is both a tall and a short locking curved posture collar available in this collection. For those of you who are new to posture collars, which are designed to keep a slave’s head upright and at attention, the curved style does not feel as severe as the straight-edged style, as it cuts around the bottom of the jawline more closely, leaving a bit of room for the chin to fall. The short and tall collars accommodate different heights of wearers – or different levels of discipline. It can also be locked for extra excitement or security by passing a padlock through the tongue of the specially-designed locking buckle. Check ’em out!!

Short Posture Collar (J471)
Tall Posture Collar (J472)
Wrist Cuffs (J469)
Ankle Cuffs (J470)

Happy Halloween!

This is my favorite holiday. I love getting dressed up for Halloween!! Putting on some latex, some make-up, a wig and going down to West Hollywood for a wonderful night of debauchery!! Oh wait, that’s just about every other weekend…

Everyday is Halloween when you’re in the world of Stockroom… Hoods, masks, pony play, straitjackets, whips, hand cuffs, blindfolds, medical toys, … I could go on and on.

If you like to dress up on a regular basis or if you like to wait for those special occasions a few times a year, we have a great selection of masks, costumes, latex outfits, leather, and an endless amount of toys and accessories to complete your get-up (and for the after-party). Hope you all have a great time!! I know I will…

Here’s the Featured Product of the Week… This is the very sexy Kiki Klement just before she was about to get tied with these Locking/Buckling Wrist Cuffs around that tree for being a bad girl.

Don’t forget to add your affiliate code when you’re linking with shots like these, and if you have any questions about how to do it, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Webmaster Access West is coming up November 19th-21st here in sunny Los Angeles, and I’d love to meet you. If you’re going to be in town for that event or if you’re located here anyway, I’d be delighted to take you around our factory of goodies and show you where the magic is made…

Next, I’d like to start a new recurring feature for Product of the Week… People are always asking me what the best way to make money is. Here’s one of the best I can think of: feature specific items with affiliate deep-links. Like the way the lovely picture of Sunny Leone is featured above… (Don’t forget to use your affiliate code or co-branded store link!!!) Also, some “call to action” text is always a good idea like, “GET HER OFF” or “CHRISTMAS IS COMING”… Anything to entice your users to click the banner is smart. Also, please respect our watermark. 😉 Thank you, kindly.

Finally, please contact me to schedule a meeting, even if you can’t make it to LA. We can chat about business, sex toys, fetish gear, or anything else you have on your mind. Shoot me an email or give me a ring!!If you’re not signed up yet, what are you waiting for??

STOCKROOM.COM TO PRESENT ORIGINAL EROTIC “POST-APOCALYPTIC” PRODUCTION AT THE SAN FRANCISCO FETISH BALL MARCH 6-8


A Company-wide Sale Celebrates the Event

SAN FRANCISCO – (date) – Stockroom.com, the world’s leading online source for sex toys, fetish gear and fashion, will present an original choreographed fashion production at the 7th Annual San Francisco Fetish Ball with events that take place over three days from March 6-8.

Stockroom.com’s signature fetish gear and slinky Syren Latex and Stormy Leather fashions will be showcased during the event on Saturday, March 8 from 9:30pm–3am at the Regency Center (1290 Sutter Street, San Francisco, CA 94109) in what the company describes as “an incredible post-apocalyptic production number that will mesmerize and haunt you.”

To celebrate the Fetish Ball, Stockroom is holding a company-wide 10% discount sale on merchandise that can be purchased online at www.stockroom.com, www.syren.com or at www.stormyleather.com using promo code SFFBO8. The sale starts today and ends on Sunday, March 16th.

Those who will be purchasing their tickets to the Ball at the Stormy Leather shop at 1158 Howard Street in San Francisco or at the Syren shop at 2807 Sunset Blvd. in Los Angeles will also be able to buy merchandise at a special 15% discount.

Ann-Marie Holman of Syren Latex will direct the Stockroom event on March 8th which she describes as “a dark, sexy, dramatic and Mad Max-inspired multimedia extravaganza.” It will star international burlesque sensations Diamondback Annie, Mia Vixen, and Victoria Vengeance; exquisite operatic dandy Prince Poppycock; and mistress of mayhem Athena Fatale.

“This is not a catwalk fashion show,” says Ms. Holman. “It’s a choreographed dance extravaganza that showcases the clothing and costumes from Syren Latex. One of our stars is the 12-foot tall Mad Max Evil Queen with a massive Mohawk wig on top and a nine-foot in diameter hoop skirt at the bottom. I don’t want to give away more details, but suffice to say that it will be unlike anything anyone has ever seen before at any Fetish Ball.”

A Unique New Affiliate Banner?

If you are so moved, feel free to use any of the letters from the Actual Customer Letter Series at Stockroom.com as an affiliate banner!

Simply grab the image and link it up using your affiliate code. These went over real well when we ran them in The Onion (print version), and I think they’ll do even better as banner links online…. or just as something silly to share with my friends. 🙂

Cheers,

Evangenitals to Perform Live at Cybernet Expo

TAMPA BAY, FL – Cybernet Expo has upped the ante again, this time with the announcement that the very talented Evangenitals will be performing live for attendees at next month’s show in Tampa Bay. The performance will take palce at the Hilton Westshore in Tampa Bay, the host venue for Cybernet Expo, and will include free drinks provided courtesy of sponsors AEBN and Stockroom.com. The show will be limited to Cybernet Expo attendees only.

With a sound that the band describes as “hillbilly love punk alternative country psychedelic healthy hippie dirty rock revolution,” or as one fan describes as “like the Dixie Chicks being beaten with their own guitars at the playful hands of the Violent Femmes,” the Evangenitals have a loyal following in the Southern California music scene. They have already released the collection “We Are the Evangenitals,” and a second LP is scheduled for release in the summer of 2007.

”The Evangenitals (aka The Love Punks) were once a fictitious band – a fib on a phony website born to amuse its founders and maybe a few friends,” explains the band’s website. “On a whim, Juli Crockett, Lisa Dee, and Brett Lyda – who all worked at the same sex toy company in L.A. (like the Sex Pistols) – brought the ghost to life and debuted a handful of ‘hillbilly truck-stop lullabies’ for Arlo’s open mic night at the legendary Mr T’s Bowl in Highland Park.”

Juli Crockett, the lead vocalist and principle songwriter for the band, is also the Marketing Director at Stockroom.com, which sells sex toys and bondage gear through its website and catalog. Cybernet Expo will mark the first time that the band has played for an adult industry audience.

“The Evangenitals have played at wildly diverse venues – at weddings, funerals, churches, outdoor family festivals, political fundraisers, you name it – and every event and venue is different,” says Crockett. “This will be our first adult industry bash, and we’re not quite sure what to expect.”

“We plan to provide a real unique, sweet and slightly smutty musical experience for everyone and get our kicks from whatever toe-tapping and head bobbing we can get out of the crowd. If we are lucky enough to ignite some musical passions in the people, have some bras thrown our way, and cultivate some new and devoted groupies, that would be awesome.”

Stockroom.com, along with AEBN, will be sponsoring the Saturday evening performance, and Stockroom.com will also be participating in Cybernet Expo’s popular “Show n’ Sell” marketing event.

“We love AEBN,” says Crockett. “AEBN a great company staffed with good people and their giving of resources to events and causes that they believe in is inspirational. We are thrilled that they are bringing the Evangenitals to the Cybernet Expo and we think the attendees of the Expo will definitely thank them for it.”

Crockett is also a former boxer, and is rumored to be the inspiration for Hilary Swank’s character in the Oscar-winning film Million Dollar Baby. Her boxing career ended early due to injury.

The Evangenitals also feature Lisa Dee, Brett Lyda, Geoff Brandin, and George Bernardo. So what about their sound?

“Many people have reported that no matter how much someone tries to explain the Evangenital experience to them, they are always totally surprised by the way it actually sounds,” explains Crockett. “Very difficult to categories, we comfortably straddle the genres of Folk, Americana, Southern Rock, Alt Country, Indie Pop, and Psychedelic Funk.”

“The music can be beautiful, playful and humorous, sublime and/or profane, which we feel comes close to accurately reflecting the multi-faceted nature of the human soul. In the world of the Evangenitals a bittersweet tender love song can transform into a filthy, sexy hoe-down in seconds flat, and the journey feels familiar.“

Attendance at the Evangenitals performance is free, but will require a Cybernet Expo attendee badge. Advance registration for Cybernet Expo, along with its reduced registration rates, will end on May 26th. Additionally, hotel rooms for Cybernet Expo are almost sold out, but rooms are still available at the Hilton Westshore for the reasonable rate of $139 per night. Hotel rooms must be booked through the CybernetExpo.com website; anyone attempting to register directly with the Hilton Westshore will be told that the rooms are all sold out.

Cybernet Expo, which celebrates its 10th anniversary this year, is dedicated exclusively to the adult Internet business. The show offers seminars for online adult business owners, plus parties and networking events, and an opportunity to make new industry contacts.
