Newly Established Adult Entertainment Company Investment Opportunity in London, United Kingdom

Seeking investment for a unique platform with 100+ niche categories for creators and models.
The Concept; A) 100+ named (unusual) niche categories covering Vanilla & Bdsm Kink & Fetish Categories – so that every girl next door can choose and say, ‘That category fits me ‘. And for models that have a different look to just stick thin, to find a category that suits them. It means fans find their favorite creators/models under these individual category names. The category name reflects what type of content they will see. Creators/models choose which category they want to be listed under. It’s where fans will find them (as shown/linked to from their individual profile page). We have a method that ensures all creators/models get an equal chance of their profile photo being seen every time any of these niche categories is clicked on by a fan. Most models/creators have a look. Some are slim, some are curvy etc. We propose to open up the subscription categories with original niche categories, where models/creators can find a category that reflects their look & persona. Something no other platform has done to the extent we will do it. So all creators/models who want to do this can work safely from home and earn a substantial income from their side hustle. They can find at least 1 category that reflects the way they look and are. There are a handful of categories for male creators too. We are looking for an investor/s who can invest a substantial amount to get this off the ground. About 80% of the investment is to cover advertising/promotions/publicity on the main social platforms (day and night for 12 months) eg; TikTok |Facebook/Meta|Instagram|Google|YouTube| Reddit| Snapchat|WhatsApp|Tumblr| etc. We’ve already bought the software to run this, which now needs to be customized/branded. We need to work closely with 2 full-time full stack developers, to guide and ensure the configuration meets our requirements. We’ve already created supporting websites that will drive traffic to the site via banners on those sites. There is a placeholder page on the main domain, that only invited investors we approve of will be given sight of. We have a new index page to grab the attention of any new visitor to the platform. No other subscription platform is doing what we are proposing. There are many other promotional/publicity ideas in the pipeline that We haven’t mentioned here. Our research shows fans ardently want these types of niche categories we've created, so they can find creators/models types they like without guesswork. It’s also about having funding to cover business operations (up to 20% of investment) costs for; A) 2 Dedicated (full time) full stack developers. B) 2 - 4 (full time) office staff to start. C) CEO salary. D) Move to a larger office facility. E) Global Trademark Applications. F) Legal and contractual fees. G) New co-incorporation (possibly offshore) tba.
