You may recognize the name Veronica Vain as the Wall Street intern turned adult entertainment star, which was covered by brokerdealer.com in January, but the former Wall Street intern has another business venture up her sleeve.
Earlier this year, a Lazard Asset Management intern named Paige A. Jennings decided her time on Wall Street had run its course, and she was ready to dive into another industry: adult entertainment. Before she packed up her things, she took a few photos of herself in a Lazard bathroom in varying levels of undress and posted them on the internet, where they gained some attention, as these things tend to do.
Now she goes as Veronica Vain, and while some people in her position might be content to simply play the role of performer (in titles such as “Screwing Wall Street”), Ms. Vain is wearing another hat: Serious Businesswoman. Earlier this week she told Charlie Gasparino she’s got all kinds of plans for monetizing herself and yesterday she took to Twitter to release an open letter to potential partners who’d like to engage with her in an official capacity.
Due to the fact that her Twitter feed is NSFW (not safe for work), Deal Breaker reproduced the letter in their article, and here is an excerpt:
“Are you looking for new avenues of exposure or a new way to get more eyeballs on your product? Are you looking for an innovative way to engage your customers and build stronger brand awareness and loyalty? Have you been thinking about something novel you could do to shake things up and draw attention to your product and image?
Even if your answer to the above is no, I still urge you to keep reading.
In case you were wondering, yes, I’m talking to you Monster, Rockstar, Vice, and American Apparel. I’m also talking to the executives of alcohol and tobacco companies who may have difficulty getting in touch with target demographics due to mainstream marketing barriers. And if you answered yes to any of my initial questions, I’m also talking to you.”
