You've heard of a sexy business plan? Well, these businesses took that idea literally. Very literally. Here are seven businesses that have found success with sex-oriented businesses you've probably never heard of before.

Wooden (sex) toys

The name of this business really says it all. WickedWoods manufactures adult toys out of the United Kingdom, creating its custom-made products from an unlikely material: wood.

The self-proclaimed "Savile Row of adult sex toys," WickedWoods' sexperts hand carve bespoke pleasure items from sustainably sourced hardwood. Fancy a pair of high-gloss cherry handcuffs? How about a custom collar to match your black walnut bedframe?

Of course, WickedWoods asks customers to send over their preferred cuff or collar sizes when ordering. But if the buyer's sex toy of choice is a bit more intimate, the company also utilizes a unique tool, the "girthometer," to ensure a perfect fit.
