is it me or has SM been painfully bad the last few nights? Ugh
I've streamed early AM & day for 12.5 hrs & it's been bad. This month is starting off poorly. Mon was very slow & Tues even slower. Placement has been all over the place tho. Not sure if it's my niche or just a rough start, but it's bad.

OK my non-chalant approach has been commented on, which some seem to like.
But
Am I putting off customers who come back say day after, or even message to ask me when I'm next on if I'm just coy?
Should I be all over previous premium and exclusive customers, encouraging them back in 'Let's do it again?' / 'Shall we have fun again' / 'Are we going into private?' as soon as I see them in my free chat?
From the other side of my sex work, general etiquette is wait to be asked.
Had trouble engaging today but I do have at least one day like that per week, just being human and first 2 days this week were manic. Determined to come back with intent tomorrow.

Personally I think that comes off as desperate and I wouldn’t do it.

Overtime you will get the natural instinct of who to you need to press more then others. I usually only start with suggesting a show if it is a new customer back for the second time after spending a lot on their first interaction with me. I have found that some of those initial big spenders come back with the attitude that they have done their part and now get to sit back and let others pay. Still with those I like to chit chat for a bit before selling. There is a segment of clients who do just need to be told to go to a show and they will.

So I've officially changed up how I greet people in my room on SM and stripchat. I used to say verbally hello to everyone that came in the room...exhuasted me. Now i have a message that says..Hi..how r u? that I send to everyone. It seems to weed out the ones who just popin and out. I have a lot more energy. If they respond I
chat and engage. Much better approach. Not as tired.

I get this russian message at least 1-2 times a week in free chat from random members: Увеличу заработок(заливы), Подробно в телеграмм dollar_liv
I use to report them as possible hackers, but I couldnt report this member because I got the following error message: There was an unexpected error reporting the user. Does anyone experience the same?
I had this motherfucker too! Under different accounts. About a couple of months ago it happened every damn week and got me so infuriated I messaged to support. It helped, but not so long ago he appeared again.

Second this. I also wish to add if a video has already been approved there is no reason it should need to disappear and then be re-approved just because we want to add some tags or change the price.
All these stressful glitches only to see they added "date recorded" as a requirement to uploading videos. Just another thing that ok sure: it only takes a few seconds to add to 1 video, but after you upload many videos ends up adding up to minutes over time along with the snapshot feature it makes things take longer. I miss the good old days sometimes
Why do we still need to click 50,000 checkboxes to stream? 1 box should be sufficient enough. I used to be able to hop right on cam within seconds. It now takes me over 20 minutes daily before I can start stream which often needs to then be restarted due to some glitch or the toy not connecting etc.

Just be yourself:) I wouldn’t worry too much about coming across this way or that. I think it’s most important you are just natural and look like you are having a nice time. I have to constantly adjust my resting Bitch face or I’m bored face. When I first started I used to worry about my greeting too, pushing for shoes etc but as time goes on you kind of read what to say naturally, think it just takes experience, but I’ve not been camming long so maybe someone who has for years can give you advice. Good luck xx

I wanna start streaming, but in SMConnect when I try to send a message it doesnt work. With automatic messages, I click on one of them, and it will not be sent. Instead it appears in the message bar, but it cant be sent with hitting the enter button. Is it just me, or does anyone else experience this?

So here's a fun little revelation about SM that just hit me know that I'm splitcamming on a token site too (stripchat)...and doing very well on the token site I might add. I get 100% of the tips I ask for on the token site and don't have to cry like I do on SM when I get a $20 tip I'm only getting 35% of my cut. I know what I signed up for and I do well on SM but the time on the token site just makes me feel like I'm actually earning what I work for. I do well on SM and it's still my main egg but now that I'm 50/50 on a site like SM and stripchat..I fully see the understand the differences of how each site works now. I can see why models go for one or the other. My hustle is the same on both..since I'm streaming the same cam shot...and I make more on stripchat than SM and it feels easier for some reason. I just thought I'd get that thought out of my head and down here...I might go back and re read my own post to get it straight in my head...lol...DEAR DIARY!! however you do it...get that cash ladies...it's out there and DON'T BE AFRAID TO TRY SOMETHING NEW OR THAT YOU AREN'T SURE OF! ...i did and i just regret I didn't do it sooner.

I have guys that tell me they have no sound all the time, and I type to them asking if they have their audio on the site turned on or if they hit 'optimize audio.' They are pretty much always able to then fix it. I can't remember the last time a guy wasn't able to fix the audio issue themselves, so in other words it's always on their end. And as far as disconnects, I cannot remember the last time I had one.

I had a funny 'glitch,' I started my stream and was doing stuff in another tab, once everyone started popping in I clicked back over but even though I could hear everyone entering into my room there were no usernames in the customer display box(or whatever you call it) on the left and the big window that shows when everyone enters and leaves and their dialogue was completely empty. Then I looked over and under my feed it said 'Start stream.' I was like 'uhhhhhh' and then I realized I accidentally pulled up the broadcasting page in two different tabs and I was looking at the one I didn't start my stream in.

do you use the phone app? Is it connected there?
I learned that I need to try to keep it open on my phone whenever possible to make sure it was still on. If I use certain apps like uber eats or the video camera it may get disconnected, so I try to remember to double check. Also after longer breaks I need to reset before logging back in, then there is the errant hitting of the buttons with my foot or something.
I had this issue with the esca but (knock on wood) not since I switched back to lush.
A good reset or charge can also help a big chuck of these issues.
previously it was noted (I believe by Sha, maybe wrong) that the internet connection needs to be the same for the two.

Mine is the same intermittent, I have tried all the resets, uninstalling, reinstalling the app. They are on the same internet but one is on a 'named' wifi (the phone), the laptop is on a LAN from the supply which becomes the 'named' wifi.
Not sure if that is the problem, the only workaround is to use wifi for laptop which will slow down and reduce quality of my stream.

my pleasure.
I often use two phones as well, definitely helps with some of the connection issues. I also have my comp wired to the same network and that works just fine. The “on” for connect will stay on as long as you leave the page open once initially set up.
it really is the app page and it’s connection that needs to be monitored. Even if it constantly needs to be reconnected for vibration it is working as intended. just one of those tech things. Also if it doesn’t work, I would blame the lush before I blame SM. Ever since tip vibes became the norm I go through multiple every year. They are not meant to last

Yes..it's STRIPCHAT.COM. I'm with boleyn models and i just got my daily pay set up with them on it. They give you 0.045 tokens and if you not then you get 0.05 tokens. The traffic on stripchat is amazing...it doesn't mean if you have 120 people in your room they are all tippers..most are lurkers and i ignore all chat that doesn't tip me..But I do recommend using the tip menu..most of my big tips are off of that and also doing all the extensions like the wheel of fortune...it adds up. i'm averaging $30-50 a shift..that's not much to most models but when you add it to my daily amount from SM then it adds up quick. Like an extra $500-900 a month in revenue..that's rent baby! A great new egg...highly recommend it. Beats the shit out of IMLIVE...which sucks!
