Chapter 456 - 455 Compromise
Chapter 456 - 455 Compromise
Gabe
The girl’s looked around and nodded satisfied with the space.
Heidi spoke, "So when will our site be up and running?"
I sighed, "That’s the other problem. The benefactor I went to hoping they would front the start up cost."
I was interrupted as Jaime spoke, "You mean mommy and daddy?"
I looked at Kel who obviously spilled too much on when I told her to hill the girls in but looked at Jaime and nodded, "Yes our parents couldn’t exactly provide the start up capital."
Kumi looked at me, "So we have to provide the start up?"
I looked at Kumi, "Yes."
Jaime folded her arms under her breasts, "How much?"
I sighed, "$5,000....each."
They all looked at me incredulously but I quickly spoke, "But I’ll also be fronting $5,000, as well, to help start up the site. That’s all I’m asking from each of you to start up this site."
Anita spoke, "How come I feel like that’s not the only thing we will have to pay for."
I sighed, "Yes there will be more that will have to be paid."
Felicity looked at me, "How much?"
I sighed, "Ok let me lay it out and get this over with."
I started speaking as I repeated that I’m asking them to front $5,000 so the site can be started and the site should be up and running in a couple of months, three max.
Then I talked about rent as the girl’s blinked after I told them the studio we were standing in we were borrowing which they assumed it was free to use due to Kel sharing too much this was our parent’s studio.
But I spoke how the rent will go towards manpower and expand to the next floor maybe. And possibly give us capital to expand when needed.
And the final nail in the head when I told them about my agent fees at a whopping 10%.
The girl’s listening to how I laid everything out all while Jesse remained quiet.
Jaime was the first to speak, "How is this any different than what Vuse offered us?"
Kumi quickly added, "Yeah!"
I sighed but Summer spoke, "Because Gabe is actually giving you more compared to Vuse."
All the girl’s turned to Summer. Josephine was the first to challenge, "I don’t see how. He’s asking up front capital, rent, and a percentage."
Bonnie added, "What else you gonna try fleecing us for?"
Summer gave all the girl’s a look which most backed down.....well except Kumi and Jaime. Summer spoke, "Gabe is offering you more and he’s only asking for pennies."
Kumi scoffed, "More like a dime per dollar."
Summer looked at Kumi, "It’s better than you getting pennies on Vuse’s dollar. AND he’s not demanding you all do porn."
Kumi sighed and backed away.
Jaime looked at Summer but Kel saved the day as both were staring each other down, "Is there anything else you forgot to mention?"
Jaime looked towards me, "Like who that is next to you?"
I nodded, "Right. I forgot to mention when our site hits 350,000 I have an inside man that can start negotiating possible sponsors so when that happens it’s just more money for you all."
I pointed towards Jesse, "And this ladies is Jesse." I looked at Jesse, "Jesse these are the girls for the site." I looked at them, "If they agree."
I continued, "Jesse will be getting your measurements, doing lighting to figure out your foundation and makeup for photos and videos. She has been working with Sweet Angel for a while and I trust her to do everything you need to do in order to raise you all out of the amateur status."
The girl’s just looked at one another as they eyed Jesse then at each other.
Finally Georgina spoke, "How long do we have to make our decision?"
Felicity added, "And how quickly do we have to come up with the money?"
Jaime spoke, "And distribution of payments once we are established."
Ok I wasn’t expecting this many questions so quickly fired at me.
I looked at Georgina, "Whenever you like. But sooner is better."
I looked at Felicity, "As soon as I have the money from each of you the sooner the site will start up. But I need all $50,000 in order to make it happen."
And I addressed Jaime, "And I’m sure we can work out a compromise on distribution after our first month."
Heidi spoke, "So you’re not going to pay us bi-weekly?"
I shook my head, "Not at first no. When we’re more established and have a more steady flow of income we can revisit a bi-weekly distribution."
Jaime shrugged, "That sounds fair."
Anita spoke, "Not so fast. At the end of the month will you be basing our pay on our hits or just in general?"
Jaime looked at Anita, "It should be by hits obviously."
I spoke loudly to stop a fight before it began, "At The End Of The Month We Will Work On An Agreeable Compromise!"
I looked at them, "I don’t know how it should be distributed until the website is live. Then we can look at metrics if that’s the route you want to go. OK?"
The main fighters huffed as they folded their arms under their breasts and nodded.
Kel spoke, "Did you happen on a name for the site?"
I smiled at Kel thankful she got us out of this obvious bickering, "I did. How does ’Circle of Fun’ sound?"
