YNOT – Vivid Entertainment has named online marketing veteran Tim Siner vice president of business development for the studio’s web division, Vivid.com.
Better known in the adult industry as “The Hand,” Siner’s career has included stints with BikerBabes Inc., FacialDollars, Video Secrets and WebCamCash. At Vivid, he will focus on developing new web-based, Vivid-branded properties.
“I have been a long-time fan of Vivid, and I am honored to be working with the industry leader,” Siner said. “We have very big plans for the future. I look forward to continuing in the Vivid brand tradition of bringing high production value to innovative new properties.”
Founded in 1984, Vivid earned its stripes as a producer of adult videos before moving onto the internet and branching out into product licensing, book publishing and partnerships in premium cable television productions.
“The Vivid franchise has never been stronger, and with Tim’s experience, savvy and energy, we’ll be moving ahead quickly with our plans for continued growth in the online area,” said founder and co-chairman Steven Hirsch.
