I seem to do better when i straighten my hair.
I usually try to set a goal for the night on SM and once I meet that if i go over that its wonderful.
I dunno many secrets though, I usually wear a low cut tank top and just try to talk to em as much as I can. Seems to work for me :)
Just stay determined and you can do well! Heck, if I can do decent you can.

How long do you cam a night?
I also do Mfc, sometimes use (manycam)so if I kinda get more attention. :) Although if one is wayyy busy I just log off the other. Works pretty well for me.

I was on last night from 9;30 to 1:30.. How do i keep them in private i hate 1 minute men.. lol
cherryfay
08-23-2011, 03:47 PM
I dunno. There are alot of minute men out there on the site, Just make sure you aren't totally naked within like 2 min of joining pvts. If they leave before I think 30 sec you don't get paid!
Which i didn't find out til I read it on here a couple days after I started.
I try to not get naked too fast but at the same time not to slow, then they think you're just milking the money..

There is NO way i would stay on four hrs if i was only gonna make $50. Unfortunately, if ur on SM right now, u gotta watch when certain ppl r doing Gold Show countdowns. That affects how much i make now big time. If certain girls, models or porn stars r on i just sign off. Also, if Erotic TV is on i sign off b/c they do it all for free.
The times ur on will also affect ur earnings, so try diff times & days. Sometimes i don't bother to work certain days that i know are dead days. And i guess you will just have to find out what works for u. What works for some girls would never work for me. I also find i do better when i straighten my hair & wear lots of makeup. But there r some girls who wear their hair in a pony tail, don't wear any makeup & wear mismatched lingerie & they bank.

Can you make that kind of money doing non-nude shows? I'm afraid I won't rake in that kind of money.

Have a look around SW via the search function, there are TONS of posts answering all these questions. Get some inspiration then get out and try out different things yourself. What works for one girl might nor work for another :) x

Well jeez, I'ma have to up the ante on my hours. I would have to be on cam 30 - 50 to make $1000. I'm doing alright right now with my lower hours and my $500 - 800 a wk but I'm working on doing better. Guessing the average single college graduate in my city probably makes $15 x hr and at the most $600 before taxes, that's not bad to work just as long (not necessarily harder) to make a G.
I really have a hard time being on cam now a days. It got boring, but maybe it will be better in the following months.I swear that is my only issue. Not the beggars, or worries - just that its boring waiting in between privates. I would like to get my other laptop fixed so I can play games on it in between privates.

Well my goal is $4000 a month. Wasn't really camming , just being a lazy ass. So I started last week and this week but just didn't stay logged in . It was like 30 mins and hmm what's on tv then I logged off.
So I hopped on cam and made about $700 today. So glad I got up. $350 in phone calls. So I'm at $1,050. Yes I know. I have 6 days left. to make $2,950. I'm going to have to pull a miracle out of my ass. Better pray to "scrubbing bubbles" because this is going to be some work ahead of me!

I'd just like to say I've *have* been getting my lazy ass on MFC the last couple night and now I'm super close to my first $1000 week. Glad I was right about myself. Now to use that fact to muster up the motivation to get back online tonight and actually make it..

I've been on SM for 2 1/2 yrs. Believe me, when I first started I was making no where near $500 a wk. It takes time. You learn what works for you and what doesn't. My friend gets a lot of pvts by standing up and dancing around but whenever I do that my pvts stop. It's the weirdest thing. I literally sit there, boobs (with bra on) and up and don't show ANYTHING in free. No ass, hips, belly, feet whatever. Even fully clothed. Seems to work for me.

I would just like to throw in the update that I've officially surpassed $1000 this week (for the first time ever!), all because I was inspired by this thread!!
I feel so lucky to be so young and making this kind of money. It's a nice change from my old job, which was 1500 a MONTH *before* taxes..And working with people decades older than me, with Masters degrees, making the same..
Camming for the win!

Yep, I'm doing 50+ hours per week, every week. Piece of cake. Even with a 40 hour a week job, factor in unpaid lunches, transportation time to and from work, and other necessary evils like packing a lunch, picking out what to wear, etc. Those extra 10 hours don't seem so much extra.
Love this! Cam, cam, cam!

Sounds like the job I had before camming. I was working at a daycare with a vocational certificate for $8 an hr. Girls with no experience were making $7.50 and girls with masters were making $9. It was ridiculous.

Yup, my job was a call center but I saw the same thing interning and working in daycares and afterschool programs...Played a huge part in me giving up on college. Like why spend so much time, effort, and money to be in the same place I already was? Like manifesting my abilities as an employee into sheet-of-paper form somehow would make my life that much more meaningful? No thanks. My talents and job may not be conventional, or hell even socially acceptable, but it's giving me at the mere age of 20 what people in this city spend their whole lives trying to achieve.

^A whole lot of people are finding that college isn't really worth it anymore. All the time, effort, expense, loans / interest - just so you can barely scrape by? Plenty of people are saying "no thanks" these days.

Youtube "College Conspiracy". Watch some of the videos. Also according to statistics, many trade jobs pay higher now that degree required work.

It depends on what you study in college. A BA in English is pretty much worthless, but a degree in Engineering, Nursing, Finance, etc. will most likely land you a ballin' job.
Otherwise though, trade schools are where it's at.
SupaByoch
08-26-2011, 10:25 AM
Of course some fields are still worthwhile for college, but some aren't, and some are questionable. I would even question whether a business degree is worthwhile in some cases. Gone are the days when "paying your dues" in college necessarily meant a higher paying job.

I'm thinking about to do group shows. Could it be possible to earn more money than private shows? Did anyone try it?
If I do a group show for a few less credits per minute, I get more chances of some customers being watching me for a little more time - because it's not that expensive -, and not only one of them.

That is very unrealistic. Sometimes its hard to make that in an 8 hour day working multiple sites at the same time. One show? Doubt that is possible unless you've been around for awhile and bring in your own heavy traffic to a site that pays a lot. Or if you're a high ranking MFC girl, but the only way you'd get that money on MFC from one show is if you do a public show based off tips (which a lot of the time is mostly from only a few good regulars).

the most you can charge for a group show i think is like $1000, which is only $350 after streamate takes their cut ($300 if you're on daily pay). i've seen people charge $400 BEFORE streamate takes their cut ($140 after) but only a few models ever actually make that goal.

I just wanted to add that that is not true. The other night I had a group where I made just slightly under $500 from only group show tokens.
It certainly doesn't happen often! I've had large groups before but that was my biggest.
But on MFC I'd say that is unrealistic to expect consistently unless you have a crazy high camscore, as in a 20k+ camscore. I don't know how SM works but it seems like a very high goal for a SM group as well since they take such a huge percentage.

Do you have a hourly goal? What might help is if you try to set an hourly goal, something attainable. So that way if in the first hour you don't make that goal, you should probably log off and try again later. That way you will only have 1 crappy hour instead of 2 :) This is if you don't want your camscore to fall anymore.
I'm sure you're worth more than 5 tokens in 2 hours regardless!

I make $850 a week. I do 4 hours a day 5 days a week. And I work at bad times when only the jobless freeloading pricks are online. I tried changing my hours to work when the big spenders are none. But it failed. Because my new-model tag had gone by then and none of those people knew who I was so didnt' bother going in my room. I did worse then I do in freeloader central time. :(

I was trying to get 1000 tokens in an hour at least. But the only problem was I couldn't figure out a good topic for my room. I keep trying to think of games etc... But yeah, I was mostly just talking to the few people in my room. Couldn't get any premiums to stay! :-[

You just need to find out what works for you personally. Sometimes that takes months, other times you try something randomly and it works. Work your quirks!

I'm at about 500-700 a week... I average about 1000-1500 per paycheque ( 2 weeks).... So I'm getting there, and i'm not really putting 100% of my time in. I'm part time.
I think 1000 a week is doable. I see it as an acheivable goal, and am positively working toward it.

It depends where you work. Different strokes for different folks :D I can't make anything at all on MFC, and a lot of girls can't, but i do well elsewhere. Just find a site that works for you, and tweak your style and schedule until you are where you need to be.

11-26-2011, 10:36 AM
Ugh, this thread makes me want to cry. I don't make anywhere near that. :(
The most I've ever made in a day is $100. I know it is probably because I am really new and that only have been camming for a couple of weeks, and I know having regulars are where the money is at, and I know it is my own fault because I rarely put in seven hours a day -- but still, so depressing!
Shysiemay
11-26-2011, 11:11 AM
Hey, that's not bad. That's my daily goal, for when I start camming. $100 a day seemed like something that was attainable, and that I could meet every day without burning out. If I exceed that, then great!
I also don't plan on stopping once I meet my goal. I'll probably keep camming a couple hours, just to see if I could break $200 ;D. Nothing wrong with starting small! Small, attainable goals that you know you can meet keep you positive, and positive energy makes money!

I make 100 an hour at least, and since I don't really need to worry about making much more than that I work usually an hour a day :P Haha but soon I plan on taking on the bulk of my boyfriend AND my bills, so I'm planning on doing more than one site and making maybe 100 an hour on EACH site each day. I'm not sure how that rates with everyone else, but that's how much I make right now!
