Adam Scheuer Joins MetArt.com
The MetArt Network has hired Adam Scheuer as its new business
development director.
“I am very excited about this opportunity to get on board with the
MetArt Network,” said Scheuer. “They have been industry leaders in the
field of high-class, sophisticated erotica for over 15 years, and I am thrilled
to be part of their future.
“It’s a thriving and dynamic company, but there is even more we can do
to enhance our prestigious brand names, and also to expand into new
areas that will increase revenue for ourselves and our affiliates,” he
continued. “I’m committed to making it happen.”
Scheuer has more than 15 years of experience in adult entertainment,
where he was one of the first to lead live webcam websites.
“We are delighted to have Adam joining us,” said MetArt Network
owner Jonathan Krogman. “He has an excellent understanding of our
ethos and, without a doubt, the ideal person to help us achieve our
ambitious plans for 2016 and beyond.”
