It's absolutely crazy to think that some Camgirls are struggling during live cam shows when they are absolutely HOT! And yet, they simply think that's all they need to get paid...and they will get paid and do very well but sprinkle on a bit of personality, read this camgirl blog and pay attention to the details and $85k-$100k is totally feasible. This is not the high-end of income that can be made but an estimation of a Camgirl with "average" attractiveness that simply employs a few rules, tips, tricks and advice to bring out their true potential earnings.
Because it's all about the cash, ladies. It's a huge rush to know that you're getting paid to show off your body for most girls but it must be kept in perspective: live chat girls are trying to get paid the most while in the comfort of their apartment, dorm or home. And any cheap, weasel-ly dudes that are trying to form "relationships" with you outside of Streamate, LiveJasmin, Adultwork, Myfreecams, etc. are simply a VERY expensive bill that WILL cost you. Granted, it's an art that is admirable to get a guy to empty out his wallet while you make fun of his penis that's smaller than a Marlboro box but it's still ultimately a job. I only say this with love as there have been a few too many ladies getting done dirty by some former camming client or even blackmailed. Keep it simple in an already stressful job and don't mess with clients outside of a good ol' fashion PAYING private session.
With this being said, here are my other rules to turn every guy into a "Regular" client.
4) Don't give away too much for free. Although it's easy to think that you're enticing a "private" session by deep-throating a dildo on Free chat you're actually just getting a few wankers to cum unknowingly. Get these horny guys (that desperately want to blow their load to the image of your curvaceous self) to spend their money instead of seeing something "hot enough" in Free chat to reach climax. Also, guys love what they can't have and my experience is that generally the guys with the biggest pockets are guys that work hard and are competitive and therefore want to conquer. Playing very subtle mind games is not a sin, right??!
5) Kick trollers to the curb. For most guys, they get in a room, have a brief conversation to see if they mesh well with the Camgirl and then they either stay for a private session or go. No biggie, right? Well, this next Camgirl tip has to deal with the annoying guys that just sit in your room, full of banter but empty pockets. He's a troller and he's simply trying to beat-off the entire time HOPING to get enough of a glimpse to get-off to you (see above similar rule). But...perhaps you're a smart Camgirl and you DON'T give anything away for free...still, these unemployed leaches will stay on during every Free chat moment. Do NOT form friendships with these slackers as they will lead other potential spenders to believe that if you just simply "hang out" they can get some sort of quasi-relationship...without spending a dime. ES NO BUENO! If they're not spending after a while you need to simply ask nicely to either take you private or you're going to have to "kick" him to make room for $pender$.
Yes, I just said be a little mean. There's nothing wrong with a bit of tough-love and you're biggest fan may be unfamiliar with steady paychecks and ultimately find a way to get a job so he can spend cash on you. Besides, even giving away too much conversation and familiarity is not going to benefit you at all. The secret here is to get good at identifying the big spenders and separating (in due time) out the broke guys. Again, this is a job and if they don't like it they can go fuck themselves ;)
6) Consistent, well-written blogs with lots of pictures are` free marketing and a good idea if you want adoring fans that will spend 1/3 of their paycheck for the next 3 years just to be able to talk to you and watch you play with a toy (when most girls already do this). The power of a blog is really what you put into it. Some girls have professional, attractive blogs that bring in a lot of "regulars" that become engrossed with the heights simple marketing can bring a Camgirl. When you are all over the Internet in search engine results (and blogs can help a lot with this-Blogspot is owned by Google) then there's a better chance some doctor with $50k on his debit card will find you during a Google search. Plenty content with text that describes your services and what you look like, etc. can culminate into an underground following that can yield a much higher rate of traffic to your chat room (even on slow nights-curse you MLB playoffs!). Free marketing is all around us and giving a glimpse at your personality and your hotness is a great way to keep guys coming back and ultimately wanting to pursue more of an interaction-and that's where they have to pay (either on a cam site or a paysite that many Camgirls have nowadays). Facebook, blogs, Twitter, forums, commenting on blogs are all ways to get your product, goods or services out there to be purchased. A little bit of time and effort mixed with a bit of kinky creativity and some fun will yield paying clients without having to pay a dime for advertising. And the coolest thing I have noticed about social media is that it almost creates an addiction by some regulars that just can't get enough. It's not just sex people! It's the whole enchilada. You are making yourself into a star, regardless if you decide to pursue anything more than simply camming (which is totally understandable). More on branding and marketing in a later article.
Oh, and one more thing; don't make a BUNCH of blogs just for the sake of saying that you did. Stick with one (or two MAX) blogs that really give a quick glimpse to guys everywhere as to why you are worth paying for and how awesome you are. Quality...not quantity.
The tips and advice to make every client into a regular customer are numerous and expand well-beyond a two-part series on a blog. As you know, some of these tips I have blogged about before but I need to distinguish why they are so important, especially when trying to nail a long-standing (spending) relationship with a guy over a webcam. In this crazy, selfish and unforgiving world these guys are generally looking for a bit of someone to talk too as well. Remember this as there will always be a steady flow of guys that will make you $10-$20 per session but the BIG MONEY is getting a handful of guys that absolutely adore everything about you and can't seem to get enough.
Stay profitable Camgirls! :)

Remember, per$onality is what gets regulars
Over the last week I have been simply meandering through various chat sites (Streamate, Myfreecams, etc.) and have stumbled upon some BEAUTIFUL girls...but I gotta say...very few of them are REALLY engaging all the tools available to today's Camgirl. Since the quality of webcams are so much better guys can get a better idea of how you move (in real time versus the old choppy webcams) and get a feel (and taste) for your personality.
Why is this important?
Because as much as guys are HORNY as hell most of them also want to have a "girlfriend" experience. As I've mentioned before, Sasha Grey is not only hot and raunchy in her pornos she is also a pretty decent actress in the Indy flick, The Girlfriend Experience. I highly suggest that all Camgirls go and watch that movie to get a pretty good perspective on some of the thought processes (and even pitfalls) that live chat girls can potentially come across (even though these are "high class girls" in the movie). If you know how to "work" the idea of a guy "having" you as his girlfriend (online) then he will stay on during a PRIVATE long after he has ejaculated.
Now you've got his balls and his mind. Mold to your desired income;)
Shake that super-hot ass of yours but remember your money-maker needs to be your gift of gab and your attention to detail and the regular clients' needs. If all his needs/wants are met AND he feels an emotional connection (even if you feel ZERO-which is probably good) then you have got him "hook, line and sinker". He's not going anywhere and he'll work that much more overtime JUST to talk to you after whacking off to an image on his laptop because he now CARES about you. It may last 6 weeks or 6 years. It doesn't matter.
Because now that you know how to land a regular, you can have 20-30 guys that routinely take you on 30+ minute private, exclusive chats throughout the week. And that is the sweet spot in the camming world. You have a pretty good idea of how much you'll make every week and most of your clients will want to talk more than bang. Less work AND more cash. That's a "win-win" as they say.
Here's how to add more personality to your shows:
1) Hello, it's called TALK ladies! I literally come across MORE girls that don't talk than do converse with their guests. When you are engaging and can talk easily it puts the guys at ease and they also know that there won't be any communication issues. Life is all about communication. Bump those gums girl!!!
2) Um, try NOT to get wasted off Xanax and distilled vodka if want to make money and NOT black-out. That's not cool, it's unprofessional, you make WAY less money and nobody likes a lush. Now, if you have a pre-cam ritual where you take a shot or two, L'chaime! Do it, to it! But if you're pounding the shots faster than guests are logging in then maybe some alternative relaxation methods may need to be researched. If you're THAT nervous that it drives you to over consume inebriates then being a Camgirl may NOT be for you. If it isn't, there are tons of dudes that want to see a "nip slip" or a spanked a$$ occasionally while playing games with you on www.GameCrush.com too. No nudity (mostly). Most any girl that reads this blog can find a way to make some extra cash (sometimes a significant source of income).
Also, herbal incense is something that Camgirls can try before a show. Apparently, the stuff is very potent and more and more camgirls are smoking or vaporizing the stuff (instead of the illegal stuff). I haven't tried it but the hearsay is interesting. I'll end up researching this a bit further and writing an article on it soon.
3) Don't be afraid to mix in a flirtatious smile ladies! Guys are automatically stimulated when a pretty girl smiles at them and OFTEN it makes many guys more confident. CONFIDENT GUYS SPEND MORE MONEY. And arrogant guys sometimes spend the most (you should for putting up with a deuche bag). So brush those pearly whites and flash 'em a sexy grin. Work on the seductive smile in the mirror if you have to but just simply smiling can go a long way.
4) Try on a dress every once and a while. While most of the Camgirls I routinely see have GREAT bodies sometimes LESS is more. I've found that when I have a sexy dress on (instead of simply coming at them with a barely-there lingerie with stripper heals) guys are more apt to spending money on me (almost as if we were on a date-not a coincidence). So yeah, get on a dress like you're going on a date with Mr. Handsome with a perfectly big dick. I realize I have written about wearing sexy dresses but it bears repeating. The dress can accent curvaceous body parts while titillating his curiosity by having a bit of mystery in the wardrobe. Try it. I think you'll like the results.
5) And lastly, on this quick mini-article on how to show more personality, LEARN HOW TO TALK SHIT! I mean it. Learn how to be quick-witted and sassy with the boys! Guys LOVE a cocky, challenging girl. It just makes them want to hastily "conquer" you (i.e. give me money for shaking my tail feather) and feel good about themselves. It's all psychological...even with men. The easiest way to get into a guys head (and getting him ready to $pend) is to know how to put them in their place. They'll either love the domination (and want to take you private) or want to take you private to "teach you a lesson". Ah, too bad it's awesome milking this cocky guys for their cash. And there is no shame in that.
And this is really just a quick shot reminder that personality rules the day if you want to achieve your maximum income potential as a Camgirl. Yes, continue to go to the gym and do those lunges and make that booty round BUT don't forget about cultivating yourself as an individual and challenging yourself because when you do this you are a more interesting person...with more per$onality. And more cash in your Gucci wallet;)
Seize the day ladies:)

Turn every guy into a "Regular" client- PART I
Now, this should be a total “no-brainer” here, but I feel like it needs to be addressed. I’m not totally concerned with the idea that girls aren’t aware that guys could potentially become regulars but there needs to be a super-consistent effort to treat EVERY guy like he could potentially be a regular. Why is this important? Because if you want to make $200-$300 in 4-5 hours then you will need to build a decent list of good regulars that will take you for a private for 30 + minutes (because they enjoy the “Girlfriend Experience”-which is a great Indy movie with Sasha Grey) and they just simply want to get off and then TALK. Your job is to keep every guy on chat for as long as possible. And this is why you have to use your body AND your personality. It's not advisable to talk about how much money he's spending on you (unless he's a fan of financial domination or humiliation) just give him flirty conversation.
 |
| Sasha Grey in The Girlfriend Experience. Great Indy flick. |
"Your job is to keep every guy on chat for as long as possible. And this is why you have to use your body AND your personality."
When you have a regular that probably only takes 5-10 minutes to get off and then wants to talk for the next 30 minutes YOU HAVE REACHED THE SWEETSPOT with camming. The dollars-per-hour that you make when you are able to cultivate a virtual-relationship with a regular goes up dramatically. $50/hour is not irregular at all even if you have just a FEW REGULARS.
How to turn every guy into a "Regular" client
1) Have your best energy levels of the day set aside for when you start doing your live chat. Now, there are some guys that prefer more mellow and laid-back chicks but for the most part, guys love to have an energetic girl entertaining them. After all, it is just another heightened form of entertainment that regquires A LOT of energy to do well. Eating plenty of plant-based and natural foods will increase the energy levels, improve your health, keep you focused and probably "tighten" up any problem areas too! The natural foods will also help keep you skin clearer. As soon as I dropped dairy my pores began to be the tiniest they have ever been.
 |
| Almonds are a great source of Potassium and give you consistent energy. Sweet! |
Also, getting enough sleep throughout the day are other areas that need to be improved for most Camgirls to have their best energy but it's easily overlooked. If you can help it, try to get 7-8 hours of sleep. Anything less than that may ultimately affect your live cam performances, which means less cash on your check.
 |
| Cold, pure water is so satisfying. Drink more of it to look and feel your best. |
Since your skin is a big part in making money, your day needs to start out with 4 glasses of water before even eating breakfast. The added water will help clear your pores and keep your skin clean (a plus, when you're always putting/taking off makeup) and the H20 gives you extra energy and helps your cognitive abilities go through the ROOF! Plus, drinking plenty of water as soon as you wake-up in the morning is a great way to REV up your metabolism.
"The added water will help clear your pores and keep your skin clean (a plus, when you're always putting/taking off makeup) and the H20 gives you extra energy and helps your cognitive abilities go through the ROOF!"
2) If you need a "pick-me-up" then a bit of black coffee should do just fine. The common habit of putting dairy and sugar into coffee really negates the healthy aspects of the warm cup of brewed awesomeness! You see, coffee by itself is loaded with antioxidants, caffeine and is CALORIE FREE. Additionally, emerging research indicates that 4-5 cups of coffee a day can ward-off Alzheimer's disease. That does not suck, right?!
 |
| Black coffee is a bit of an acquired taste but it's great to rev up your metabolism. |
Of course, you can also consume Green Tea throughout the day as well. My only added note would be to consume tea's and coffee without any sweeteners or dairy. The additions can hike up calories tremendously while leaving your energy levels crashing as soon as the caffeine BUZZ starts to slip a bit.
"You see, coffee by itself is loaded with antioxidants, caffeine and is CALORIE FREE. Additionally, emerging research indicates that 4-5 cups of coffee a day can ward-off Alzheimer's disease."
(Note: for extremely tired Camgirls that desperately need A LOT of focused energy I would suggest a sports supplement called "Tight". I only need to take 1 pill and I am focused and energetic for 10 hours or so. If you take 2 in a day, make sure you spread them out because 2 pills at once is WAY too much. But, this little pill keeps me working hard and seems to get rid of belly-fat big time. Also, you won't have much of an appetite with this stuff. I take this energy/fat-loss pill sparingly (maybe twice a week) but it's very effective so just use caution if you decide to take it. You may get more energy than you bargained for so start off slow.)
3) Wear a dress. Yup, I said go and find a hot and sexy dress and try wearing one tonight when you sign-on to your favorite camming site. Of course, many women will find plenty of willing guys to take them "exclusive" or "private" in other outfits, the simplicity of wearing a dress can really add some mystery to your show and guys are willing to pay for you to reveal that mystery. If you give too much in Free chat, then a lot of guys WON'T take you private and will simply "beat-off" to whatever "skin" you're willing to reveal during FREE chat. You want those guys masturbating to your hot bod when you're in PRIVATE-getting paid! And nothing else will do. With this being said, wearing a dress reminds most guys that they are on a date.
"If you give too much in Free chat, then a lot of guys WON'T take you private and will simply 'beat-off' to whatever "skin" you're willing to reveal during FREE chat."
Wearing a dress also ensures that the fantasy of some dorky, fat-guy picking up a super-hot chick is more likely to SEEM real to the guy. Your "Regulars" know that they are paying you to spend time with them via online chat BUT they still want to feel like they are a stud with super hot chicks wanting them badly (so, don't mention money)!
 |
| That little black dress is calling your name! And so are the Benjamins... |
"Your 'Regulars' know that they are paying you to spend time with them via online chat BUT they still want to feel like they are a stud with super hot chicks wanting them badly (so, don't mention money)!"
Part II of, "Turn every guy into a 'Regular' client" is cumming soon ;)

Update: I swapped the site for a blog...simplicity rules!
Just a quick update yo! I have grown so accustomed to using blogs in my effort to promote myself as a Camgirl over the past several years. So with that said, I feel blogs are just so simple to use/read that it will make my life a bit less busy and swap out my site (http://www.camgirl-advice.com/) for the best blog for tips and advice for Camgirls: http://www.camgirl-advice.blogspot.com/ PLUS, PLUS!
I have 50+ articles that need the finishing touches done before being released and I'm always kinda weird about the order I release them in.
What topics on how to make the most money during live XXX chat do you ladies (or boys) want to read about next?
-"How to beat the stress when camming"
-"Empowering women"
-"How to turn every guy into a 'regular' "
If you ladies haven't seen a specific topic you'd like discussed, or have a perspective that you feel is valuable to the camming community then shoot me an e-mail and we can work on cross-promotion. I want this blog to be a resource for all chat girls so that the entire industry makes the biggest checks every week. It turns me on to see all these haut ladies getting that money!
Does that make me a bad person?!
Cheers:)

Only show your face in ‘Private’? Yes.
There are many ways to make money as a live chat hostess and it simply comes down to what you are comfortable with. For most girls, they will let it all hang out to get every private they can. With this being said, there is NOTHING wrong with trying to make as much loot as possible while you decide to cam, maybe in between jobs, or it’s just something that turns you on and the money doesn’t hurt. Either way, get that money girl!
However, there are a percentage of gorgeous, curvy women out there who are seriously considering camming for the extra income but want SOME sort of anonymity while doing this. While camming is virtual sex it is still something that some people would rather be discreet about. Camgirls everywhere are making plenty of cash while only showing their face during an exclusive “private”.
And nobody knows this better than Camgirl Tabetha Bonez. She laments, “At first, I did show my face in the ‘public chat’ to try to entice privates when I worked with LiveJasmin. I took a break from this and wanted to come back eventually but I really wanted more discretion when I was camming so I decided that I would only show my face in a private. And if I still felt weary about the guy, I would ask to do cam-to-cam in order to give me peace of mind. Granted, there’s a very, very small chance you will bump into someone you know but I like to cover all my bases.”
"While camming is virtual sex it is still something that some people would rather be discreet about. Camgirls everywhere are making plenty of cash while only showing their face during an exclusive 'private'."
Tabetha Bonez goes further with some odd results as a result of the increased discretion while camming. “The results I found surprised me a lot. I ended up getting roughly 10% more privates by concealing my face. With this said though, I use my big lips and a bit of personality and flirting to go exclusive. My lips are the only part of my face that the ‘public’ gets to see without taking me private. It has worked really well.”
“The results I found surprised me a lot. I ended up getting roughly 10% more privates by concealing my face." Tabetha Bonez
This trend of concealing at least some of your identity is nothing new. The whole reason lingerie is “sexy” is because there is a bit of mystery involved in the equation. Burlesque dancing revolves around revealing only so much until the climactic end-in our case, an exclusive “private” show. And if you’re good enough, you may be able to do your live cam shows for multiple guys during your live chat show.

And if you’re good enough, you may be able to do your live cam shows for multiple guys during your live chat show.
The entire premise of this article is to expand the perception of what is possible in the adult world of camshows, which means more possibilities and this means more jobs for broke girls, globally. I mean, there have got to be a TON of women out there that desperately need to make $500-$1,000 a week camming but don’t really want their face being easily viewable. By putting on a top-notch show you can start calling your shots and showing your face whenever you want, concealing your identity as effectively as possible.
"The entire premise of this article is to expand the perception of what is possible in the adult world of camshows, which means more possibilities and this means more jobs for broke girls, globally."
"The entire premise of this article is to expand the perception of what is possible in the adult world of camshows, which means more possibilities and this means more jobs for broke girls, globally."
Heck, there are plenty of Camgirls that do NOT have sex and specialize in penis-humiliation, financial domination or just plain ol’ vanilla domination. They do what they want and have really found what THEY are good at and ran with it. If you’re not totally comfortable with what you’re trying to do via XXX cam sites then find what you are comfortable with. And do it to the best of your ability. It’s not rocket science. Don’t make it any harder than it is in your own mind.
With all this being said, I have heard other girls that have had success by only revealing certain “assets” and still making $25k-$50k a year. Of course, more can be made and there are a lot of different revenue streams that will be discussed later but this isn’t a liberal estimate but an approximation for what the average Camgirl can do with consistent, albeit easy-going work-ethic. If you’re a big-time hustler that can make it happen then $100k/year doing cam shows is not impossible.
Stay triumphant. Stay consistent. Stay tuned for more pocket-swelling tips.
Cheers :)

I have noticed over the years that there are a TON of different fetishes, tastes, turn-ons and requests to know that there is slew of GUYS for every girl-regardless if you don’t think you look like Megan Fox or some other hot starlette. It’s almost as if even though my look doesn’t necessarily fit in the “mainstream” belief of what is perfectly gorgeous I’m still able to have a steady stream of interested guys (and cash). At the end of the day, there are a lot of ways to make money at camming but it’s all about doing what you are truly comfortable with. Guys can tell when you’re turned on and it makes the whole process that much more addictive for these horny guys.
Different folks, different strokes ;)
To go along with that, there are a thousand different “styles” that live chat girls use when they are attempting to acquire a private session. There are some girls that are more petite and may play the “teen” fantasy better. Some chicks NATURALLY have a domineering attitude and they will be great at “Penis humiliation”, domination (obviously) and financial domination. Some women have the fortunate luck to simply get their feet or voluptuous ass worshiped for the entire exclusive chat session.
"Guys can tell when you’re turned on and it makes the whole process that much more addictive for these horny guys."
"Guys can tell when you’re turned on and it makes the whole process that much more addictive for these horny guys."
My point is, there are a million ways to “skin a cat” and each Camgirl needs to FIND what works best for them to make the most money. Some girls are hot-as-hell AND they are able to do anal, which a lot of guys seem to like. If you are naturally turned on when you are raunchy then go with it! When you are doing live sex chat you have to understand that it’s the INTERNET and there are so many guys out there that have a special interest. It’s your job to find out where this is and simply put on an entertaining show. The easiest way to do this is be yourself and do what turns you on. The guys will follow.
Begging does NOT work for anyone
With this said, I think it’s important to clarify that you should NEVER beg for a private. You need to OWN your chat room and be confident. It is a PRIVELAGE for the guy to take YOU private, ladies! Confidence can make all the difference. Begging only makes guys feel sorry for you—NOT A TURN ON. We can’t always focus on the physical aspects of sexually pleasing a digital image on the other side of the world-wide-web when more focus on the psychological quirks and turn-ons can mean more committed clients along with a highly targeted stream of traffic coming into your room.

“Style stealing” doesn’t look good on you
“Style stealing” doesn’t look good on you
I have heard countless horror stories where Camgirls would study (stalk) other Camgirls and they end up copying a girl’s style and mannerisms in an effort to “steal” what makes them special to the guys. For example, as soon as a recent rookie Camgirl became popular for “vaporizing flavored tobacco” amongst guys frequenting her room, I noticed other live chat girls discussing their newfound affection for other smokeable items in an attempt to make more money in their chat rooms. This “style stealing” is very common and can range from hairstyles to something as small as a specific type of bracelet. Here’s the deal though: it ends up backfiring because you should always do what makes you comfortable (in an already stressful gig). Otherwise, guys can tell that you’re being "sexually fraudulent", as subtle as you think it may be. This principle to be yourself is consistent with other professions and can mean the difference between struggling and $triding to the bank!
Personality, personality, personality
I have been around live sex chat for a long time and the BIGGEST item that separates big money-makers and women that barely “get by” with their camming earnings is PERSONALITY! If you don’t have a personality, you better have the best body ever and put on a helluva private show. Even then most guys are NOT into necrophilia and are therefore wanting a live person to interact with. Otherwise, you will find a lot of guys that would rather just go beat-off to porn. They are seeking this type of service because of the interaction between the guy AND YOU. If your personality is not engaging, flirty, passionate, interested and energetic then he’ll go to the next girl. Period. While guys are definitely more physical sexually than women they still want to have that Girlfriend Experience and that means you should treat the guys like a hot guy that you just met after a few drinks. You’re flirty, you’re engaging in conversation and you’re having a good time. When a guy can have this type of experience at home on his computer, he will keep coming back and spend ALL of his discretionary income on YOU. Be interactive and watch your “totals” go up significantly.
"If your personality is not engaging, flirty, passionate, interested and energetic then he’ll go to the next girl. Period."
While live sex chat is NOT an exact science, it’s always a good idea to be yourself, be genuinely confident, have fun and expand on what makes you unique. If you can do this, there is a steady check with your name on it.

Set the live chat price that YOU DESERVE
Considering how hard Camgirls work, we should set our prices accordingly. If you are at a high-traffic Camgirl site like Streamate, Adultwork or even LiveJasmin and you’re CONSTANTLY getting privates then logic would dictate that your DEMAND is very high and there’s only so much supply-your time-to go around.
So, what does a good Camgirl to do? Again, basic economics state that if there’s a huge surge in demand for YOUR services and the supply STAYS THE SAME (you can’t make anymore of yourself) then the price needs to go up!
This should be exciting you busy girls right about now.
Essentially, if you are still getting a very consistent stream of privates (where it’s almost too hard to keep up with) then you need to be upping your prices once a week. Personally, I will change my prices by very small increments but when I first started camming I would up my price somewhere around 12 cents a week. Now, this doesn’t sound like too much but over time, you have very subtly added a significant percentage to your total revenue earned every time you get online to be a Camgirl.
"...if there’s a huge surge in demand for YOUR services and the supply STAYS THE SAME (you can’t make anymore of yourself) then the price needs to go up!"
"...if there’s a huge surge in demand for YOUR services and the supply STAYS THE SAME (you can’t make anymore of yourself) then the price needs to go up!"
With Streamate, you can only change your prices once a week but I actually think this is perfect because it gives a Camgirl ample time to determine if the demand is still strong at this new, higher price. If it’s still a little overwhelming to keep up with all the privates then I would raise my price another 10-12 cents per minute THE NEXT WEEK. Continue to do this until you start to see your weekly sales flatten out (or ceases to increase in total earnings).
"With all this being said, it's important to determine if your 'demand' is actually going up and the traffic to your live camsite needs to be robust and consistent in order to make more coin by increasing your price-per-minute for live chat."
We are trying to find the “sweet spot” as far as price. As long as traffic is thick and consistent (like at a LiveJasmin or Streamate) then toying with your prices can make the difference between a $500/weekly check and a $600/weekly check. An extra $100/week does NOT hurt considering all you have to do is tweak your “Exclusive Price” or price for “Privates”, etc. With all this being said, it's important to determine if your "demand" is actually going up and the traffic to your live camsite needs to be robust and consistent in order to make more coin by increasing your price-per-minute for live chat.
The relatively small increase in price will not be as noticeable to your regular visitors and clients and will provide bigger, more consistent payouts. As the old saying goes, you can’t simply throw the frog into a boiling pot of water. You have to put this frog into room-temperature pot of water. THEN you turn up the heat and slowly turn that water into a boiling pot.
"The relatively small increase in price will not be as noticeable to your regular visitors and clients and will provide bigger, more consistent payouts."
"The relatively small increase in price will not be as noticeable to your regular visitors and clients and will provide bigger, more consistent payouts."
The same basically applies to raising prices. If you raise your price TOO HIGH, too quickly then it can scare off a significant portion of the clients that make you money (in other words, the “frog” has jumped out of the boiling pot of water). However, if you just raise your prices a little at a time then you’re golden and you’ll make MORE MONEY as a Camgirl, which is obviously deserved!
Don’t boil those frogs out of your room ladies! ;)

Success is the best revenge
People that make money are BUSY. Period. There is no way around it. Being a Camgirl is no exception.
Any begrudging rival Camgirl needs to know just one thing: success is the best revenge. NOTHING makes a true hater lose more sleep than replying with your actions (instead of feeble words) and making that mullah baby!!! Now, never look back and make it happen. Keep up that hard-work, Camgirls!
I love how Jay-Z responds to his overzealous critics in his song, The Takeover by saying, “A wise man told me don’t argue with fools/cause people from a distance can’t tell who-is-who.”
"People that make money are BUSY. Period. There is no way around it. Being a Camgirl is no exception."
Yes, the ever-successful and always cool, calm and collected Jay-Z even realized that you can’t acknowledge the drama and the shit-talk simply because it distracts from your focus and work-ethic and it consumes you until you are different person, distracted from what makes you happiest. Yes, money is what we all work hard for but at the end of the day WE DO THIS to be happy…or so we are supposed to think. The money will come…in the meantime, you gotta be good to yourself and do what makes you happy.

For every well-adjusted, hard-working, capable woman out there you will find at least 10 “messy” women that behave like a “crab in a bucket”. They will only reach to pull you down. These same “crabs” won’t reach to pull themselves OUT of their own personal “bucket” of life. And who wants to be called a crab anyways?!

Don’t do this to other Camgirls. It will ruin your reputation and your ability to use the 24-hours in a day to make money (versus NOT making money and replying back to unsuccessful Camgirls that will probably turn to escorting because they don’t know how to operate as a successful Camgirl). That is not how you make the most of your time and efforts. Camgirls should be uniting and profiting off alliances and solid business connections and NOT trying to fill a personal void by taking their bitterness out on the world-wide-web.
Put aside any petty BS and focus on what YOU do well. After all, it’s NOT your job to put ignorant people in their place. Why? Because they are ignorant and they will NEVER learn. Do your thing girl and make that money and release the stress!

Rule #1 as a Camgirl
After a long and careful consideration process I decided to dip my toe into the world of XXX camming. It sounds kinda scary, I have to admit...but I'm somewhat of an exhibitionist and being a Camgirl to make extra money had been on my mind since High-School. Well, the first impression I got was that A LOT of dudes are going to try their very best to get as much "play" for FREE as possible. What turds, right?! I mean, these dudes are ALMOST slick and will not stop unless handled appropriately. You guessed it, "appropriately" means you have to be "straight-up" and blunt to these guys and tell them (with as much wit as you can muster) that there is no-way-in-hell that they are getting anything for free. (Note: To any of my regulars reading this, that's just a part of my charm boys ;)
Now let me explain "anything" a bit further. There's nothing wrong with flashin' a bit of tail or even letting a "nip slip" (a la Janet Jackson) happen but for Pete's sake you can't give them enough of a (free) show that the guys in your virtual chat room won't spend any money on you. Don't be lying around naked (thinking that you'll get their attention) and wonder why you aren't making at least $50/hour as a Camgirl.
"...you have to be "straight-up" and blunt to these guys and tell them...that there is no-way-in-hell that they are getting anything for free."
And yes, you guessed it again...guys can sometimes try even harder to get anything gratis. There are guys that will initially spend a lot of money on you by taking you private (exclusive, one-on-one chat where the dude requests what he likes)...and then slowly they'll come in your room less and try their darndest to strike up a private-message conversation, stating how they'd "...really love to actually be able to hold you...I'll take you to all the cool spots in Loserville, BFE" Yup, extremely lame and somewhat tragic.
Another small section of the potential regulars out there will try to bully you over the internet saying things such as, "I'm a big-spending member here at this craptastically, void of any talent camsite and I could make things 'hard' for you if you won't at least give me your cell..." Yes, also pathetically tragic. Yes, I've had these messages and you have to handle this deucher-McDeuchington by completely ignoring him and banning him if he does not get the "picture" within a week. These guys can't do ANYTHING to you. If a site is unprofessional enough to actually listen to this type of nonsense then take your goods elsewhere if any partisan BS begins to accumulate. When you're making a typical camsite around 60%-65% of the total revenue you earn THEY SHOULD TREAT YOU LIKE ROYALTY. Period. End of story.
So, punch any of these cheapskates in the proverbial ball-sacks with a quick, blunt reply back and possibly save a left-hook for any admins (at the aforementioned craptastic camsite) giving you trouble for not wanting to give out personal info or shows for free. That's just absolutely unacceptable.
"When you're making a typical camsite around 60%-65% of the total revenue you earn THEY SHOULD TREAT YOU LIKE ROYALTY."
Oh yeah, and one more thing...I don't care if the guy that is requesting free shows/inappropriate (and dangerous) info is friggin' BRAD PITT with the sexual stamina of 10 Manuel Ferrera's...you don't give away ANYTHING for free. If you do it once, you will do it again and there are WAY too many guys out there that you will encounter that will do anything they can to get ANYTHING for free. Maybe it's the thrill of the challenge for these guys coupled with the fact that they live in their parents basement and huff paint on a regular basis and they just don't have the cash for chat. Do not feel sorry for these leaches to society. If you let them, they will be a leach on you and your potential earnings. The odds are stacked up against you if you give-in to this type of sub-par behavior.
After all, the exchanges you have while in the "camming world" is NOT real life...this is the virtual world of the internet and live camming is a game where the other players think it's real life. You have to separate your "Camgirl life" from your normal career as a human being or else you will start to feel like the camming is somehow an alternate universe. It's not. It's your easy way to make virtually as much money as you want...just as long as you don't fall for these spinnin' hubcaps-havin' selves that have an aversion for paying jobs. Every girl likes a guy with drive and cash and this is (especially) no exception. Do not get distracted by beggars. Just focus on the clients that are willing to take your hot-ass into private.
"Do not feel sorry for these leaches to society. If you let them, they will be a leach on you and your potential earnings."
Even though these experiences can be frustrating at times you ultimately adapt quickly to the noise that are the beggars and begin to tune them out and get into a comfortable position of being confident and patient for the members to take you private. Camgirl zen is what I call it. And the only way you get there is keeping a clear picture of your job as a Camgirl..."to make that money, honey!"
And that's it.
There is no need to find relationships/friendships in the realm of live camming when you should simply be stacking your bills as high as possible. Get your positive hustle on, Camgirls!
Cheers :)
