I do gif and preview exactly like you, except with my workflow the watermark isn't in the gif. I now realize it definitely should, and even a bigger one as you suggest. As you say, I think for some customers audio is very important, many say they love my accent. The preview is also backup for those who don't realize gif:s are compressed (I don't get how some studios have super quality AND decent length in their gif:s? I've never found a gif maker that wouldn't exceed mb limit doing this).
I comfortably just choose one of the suggested previews (10 seconds in, half in etc) or if these are not good, use preview maker. I choose a snippet that represents the AUDIO in the clip well, not giving away money shots, as the gif represents the visuals. People wank off to anything lol, but in that case, I don't think they would have bought the clip anyway. That said, I don't think adding a huge watermark on the preview is a bad idea. If it is obviously big and in the middle, probably very few would think it's in the clip.

Thank you! <3

It's slow for me too on all the sites. November was a really good month for me. I really hope it picks up. I try not to let it get to me but I've been working really hard on clips. Do you all check sales as soon as you wake up? lol. I do this and I need to stop. If sales are slow, it effects my mood and then I don't want to shoot.

Yes, I check my sales first thing and throughout the day and add them up as I go on a notes app. I enjoy on c4s seeing the different countries where customers are coming from and the things they buy. I'm used to varied sales days, so one slow day or two in a row doesn't affect me too bad, but when it is a week of slow sales days it really starts to stress me and affect my mood

For the first time when contacting support I haven't heard back. I didn't even get the auto-message that they received my message.

November was slow for me but picked up thanks to a couple customs. December has been good for me, but just as November, I'm selling random OLD clips, not much of my new ones. This is normal for me, but not to this extent. The newest clips are not dropping too far down the lists though, which means it's slow for most studios.

Yeah sales on manyvids and IWC are almost non-existent for me since a couple months. I've never done well on those but it's even slower than usual. C4S can be veeery inconsistent, I don't let slow weeks or even a month affect me. It evens out. I used to check sales everyday but now I just check when I am logged in and about to upload the clip of the week.

You have to change the file contents and file name a little bit or it'll post back up with the original publishing date (and IIRC won't show up as new in any category).

Yes the dates are all out of order, in all categories I've checked.
I just uploaded a clip which is in review right now. Let's see where it will show up on the list.

This month has been very good sales-wise. November was my highest earning month since I opened my studio in 2014. Those three days of that black friday promo were crazy. I uploaded like usual, nothing out of the ordinary. I have to say, for me, my sales have drastically improved since the expanded traffic program was started. I definitely see a difference. I thought it was a fluke but it's been months now.

Yes, agreed, past 2 months were really good saleswise. But did not see any major changes in sales during black friday for all my stores personally. However, its insanely slow this month, and i have same upload schedule. I am not hoping any miracle to happen this month, to increase my sales in these few days left. But i hope sales pick up. If this does not pick up in January, then it will be really bad for me.

I actually have no social media presence lol. I have an old twitter but haven't updated in years. I upload my clips onto C4S a few times a week and answer any emails I receive from fans/customers. The only marketing is whatever C4S does.

Hi new here, I was wondering if someone could tell me how long does it take to recieve an international wire transfer from clips4sale, it's my first payout and they said they'd send it on the 7th of this month but it haven't gotton to my local bank yet. If anyone knows how many days does it take or any information or something It would be appreciated

Usually receive it between 3rd-9th. I'm in EU, non-EU can take longer. Payout also depends on your bank's security and currency process. Also holidays on any end delays the payment. Check with your bank that you have given correct payout info.

Thanks for your reply well I'm in south Asia and I can tell it could take longer, and yes I've confirmed my banking information and Swift etc are all correct I just worry if there is any denial or payments gets lost etc, BTW how do you think it'll come to my bank before 20th of this month and they haven't given me any reference number or any notification message for the track of the transection etc, I don't know what I should do

In that case I would give it a few more days before I do anything, it's very likely you get it soon. I have a delayed payout from another site and I figure it's just start-of-the-year administration clogging things up.

Just curious - as a clip producer, what happens if you die? Will your studio(s) be closed eventually after a period of inactivity or after your bank account goes inactive? What proof of death would family members have to provide to close an account? Have searched for info on the sites I use (C4S, IWC and MV) but can't find anything. I wouldn't want my stores to be up in eternity (especially if no payouts are able to be made to my family) but I also don't want to give URL:s and studio info to my family to contact sites/close the accounts. Does anyone have a plan setup for this?

In my country the authorities will freeze bank accounts belonging to dead ppl, and then shut them down once affairs are set (heritage, debt etc) Banking info is usually given to family automatically but they can't use them. Sites can't send payouts once bank account is canceled. I assume sites will shut those studios down after a period of inactivity and payouts not requested - but I will ask to know for sure.
To keep making money from my fetish clips my family would have to take over the studio (and know how), log in once in a while, and change payout info - which is not what I am looking for, too awkward. Income would probably slow down fast with no updates anyway.

I think you would have to set it up in a will, for the executor to be notified of what to do when you die. You would have to leave some information like passwords and login and such. Something to discuss with a notary/lawyer. Good topic as I haven't thought of that...I suppose I would want everything taken down when I die, I don't have any family to leave the $ to. Seems weird to be earning from the grave. lol. My husband died and he is in many of my videos, but he didn't care about that. They still sell.

If you have a friend who knows what you do, who you trust to become an executor, perhaps that could work and you could maintain post-mortem discretion.

It's broadly different in my experience. Some like to hear confessional stories, some like to hear dirty talk as if you're talking on the phone or something to them directly. Some like to hear imaginary tales that you spin which would be hard to convey in video. Browse the category, look at the top lists for what is selling most, don't copy, but make your own unique spin on what interests you and you feel comfortable with.

From C4S about post mortem:

"The store remains open until we are notified. Once the death has been confirmed we can close it, but there needs to be some kind of legal documentation (death certificate, probate, will, etc) stating either to transfer to a specific person or close. It also needs to mention where to issue the final payment, otherwise it cannot be paid out."

So yeah, on C4S the studio would actually be up forever (or at least a very long time) unless you set up a plan/will. I have a SO who knows what I do so it's not really a problem for me, but I will have to list site URL:s so he knows who to contact (if I put passwords instead they have to be updated and he would have to know how to navigate the site to close it down etc) I wouldn't mind if he continued to have payouts from my studio but what about when he dies lol. I certainly don't want our kid to handle it...

Hi there, I recieved an email from C4S they were saying if my payout was cancelled and they'll process it again, now I'm not sure if the issue was from my end, but this was something I was worried about if it could happen. Has anyone ever faced this issue? And if they process it again what if it may get cancel again? Please let me know

I write down all my passwords and logins, as well as contact data for the websites. I plan on making a will with this info, so that the notary or my husband can lock it down. Morbid as I am yes I thought of this once, lol.

I don't think it's morbid, but maybe feeling so IS morbid lol. It's caring about making it easier for family, even in worst case scenarios. Also for me it's curiosity with site policies as I felt it was odd there was no info to be found about it. The sheer number of studios must mean they encounter this situation all the time.

No but I get it when I bring up 2 other categories that I have clips posted in. Last time it happened I told support about the issue, as I had wondered if maybe they were getting rid of the categories. About a week or so later, the categories started showing up again. But for the last few days, those same categories are giving me 503 errors again.

SophiaSylvan
01-24-2023, 04:51 PM
As I mentioned in the Save Stripperweb post, I imagine the demise of stripperweb is less about the money and more about possible legal concerns with the climate around SW. It is odd that the owners are so shadowy and unknown, and that they aren't interested, apparently, in transferring the site. It's a huge loss to lose Stripperweb, but it is too precarious in these conditions to rely on such people. What do we think about starting an Adult Content Creator's reddit or something? Seems like a few people are making forums but I'm not really interested in the stripping and camming sides personally.

I would be happier with a closed forum with members verified as real content creators. I don't like all the dirty business laundry out here for customers to read.

I will start a reddit community for us if y'all want me to but I could use some help moderating and running it. I'm not super familiar with Reddit either so if someone has another solution or wants to step up, be my guest.
