YNOT – Calling herself the “frisky sex kitten next door,” Catie Minx has launched a solo-girl website with attitude … and an affiliate program to match.
CatieMinx.com is a cooperative venture between Minx and the owners of BratCash, Mutt and John. Mutt, who’s been around the industry since 2005 and played a role in launching teen sites Ashley Brookes, Andi Pink, Dawson Miller and Private School Jewel, said he thinks Minx is destined to be a breakout star in the legal-teen niche.
“The origin of CatieMinx.com was a little different than how John and I usually work,” he said. “I was already familiar with Catie. I had seen her on My Free Cams. She intrigued me; she seemed almost too normal for an MFC cam girl. [Minx is] the kind of girl you’d see in a biology lab on a college campus.
“And then I saw the other side [of her] — a jaw-dropping display of self sexual abuse I’ve rarely seen in porn,” he continued. “Spitting, drooling, slapping herself into a sexual frenzy, and none of it seemed like an act.
“Weeks later, John — who shoots for Hustler and Barely Legal magazines as well as for Met-Art.com — told me another model had referred a cute girl to him,” Mutt added. “John test shot her and, per usual, sent me the test shots. I called him and told him, ‘That’s Catie Minx! She’s a freak!’ What I also saw in the test shots was a very sexy girl next door who, unlike a lot of cam girls, could take a good photograph. And the rest is history.”
The members area of Minx’s site is stocked with John’s high-resolution professional photography and amateur-style candid pictures and videos. Minx also writes a public blog.
The affiliate program, Minx Mafia pays a 50-percent recurring revenue share through CCBill. Promotional tools include hosted galleries, downloadable content and embeddable Flash videos — and everything exudes the same sort of edge Minx herself displays.
“I like to brand girls, create an image, a fantasy, using what I think are the model’s natural charms,” Mutt said. “It’s the only part of webmastering I actually enjoy. Catie didn’t need any of that. She created the Catie Minx brand herself.
“She’s not playing a part,” he added. “She is Catie Minx.”
