I'm such a goofball I posted in the $1000 a day challenge accidentally all excited about beating my new goal lol. My new weekly goal is $1,191 and I exceeded it this week! This is a big deal since just weeks ago I was laying around not making any money hardly. I've really motivated myself and it feels great.

I saw that Julliette lol!
I'm in this week! I've been making it every week but I keep forgetting to post. I have a lot of eggs in my basket so it's not hard for me, but I do need to stay on track and keep track of my funds. I'll come and update after my shift.

I'm reaching for the $1000 this week! I started on Saturday, and worked Sunday as well. Both days were 4 hours and on MFC. I'm at $657, so hopefully I can keep it up these next few days!! Taking advantage of my "new model" status! It became painfully slow towards the end of my shift on sunday(which is why I logged off) so I hope its not going to be slow from now on :-\ I'm excited! I have student loans to pay off hah;D

I'm more focused on actually getting on cam more than actually if I can make $1k or not weekly, because I already know I can. I have a lot of plans for the funds so I need to aim at $167-225 6 days a week for the next 6.5 months.

I'm doing this challenge for the first time this week. I usually only cam part time, but I'm thinking about doing it full time. With my hourly average, I should hit well over 1000 if I work 25 hours, so here goes :)

I'm going to give this a shot again. I need $300-$500 dollars by Tuesday, so I'm using my creative side to making money from camming and various sales. My start day will be Sunday, but I'm going to say that starts in 2 hours from now. Hopefully I have everything ready to go by then!

I haven't cammed except for once Sunday morning...
Been extremely busy making 20+ videos to put up for sale.
Hopefully they actually sell by the end of next Sunday lol.

Doing mon-fri or possibly sat if i need to. Doing 30 more minutes tonight, but so far i am on 39.7% of £1000 from today and yesterday.
Sonikku
12-22-2013, 04:38 PM
Lol this past week a joke, almost. Didn't even make 20% of my goal, but I spent most of the week making videos. Now I just gotta sell them.
I cammed for one night... that whole week.
Going to try again this week because I need 1000 dollars by Saturday... So here goes nothing! (even though I'm a day behind, lululullululul)

I had one helluva week but I fucking made it through. $1,090.00 to be exact, plus my $800 moving claims check will be on its way. I'll be popping in for the challenge for this week!

It usually takes me 7 days with 40 hours to hit $1000 but this week it only took 4 days with 22 hours. Right now I'm at $1,031 but I'm trying to hit $1,828 by the end of week. Think I will post in the $2000 challenge thread as well.

I can certainly say I surpassed $1k last week which was awesome 'cause I really only cammed two days. I'm counting on doing it again this week (the surpassing not the camming only two days).

Update: Couldn't make the last $100 to save my life. Ended the week at $999. I should be happy because I made my low goal of $724 but I'm feeling meh right now because I really wanted to make $1000. Might try again this week.

A bit slower than usual over here at 21%.
kortneykay
01-09-2014, 10:53 AM
I'm still at 23% as I had to take a day off yesterday. So, today I'm gonna aim for $260 and keep that as my goal until Saturday. That way, I'll end up at $1,013 in just 4 days.

Can someone give me advice on how to stay on and even half way meet my goal DAILY?
I'm just bombarded with so much stress and unexpected events lately... Like getting behind in my art shop and discovering I'm pregnant.
I have 8 months to be financially prepared for medical bills, baby expenses, and even sooner than that... moving expenses by April. I just don't seem to have the drive anymore because everything is just piling up on me at once. I need to do this though... Maybe it's because I try camming during the day? Does that make a difference?

Hey Sonikku,
Congrats on your pregnancy! I certainly think you're on the right track to try and squander money before you "show" and before the baby arrives. I too have a goal I'm reaching towards so here are some tips that may help you. My advice would be to stick to a schedule you can keep up with. Then, use those extra hours to catch up with your art shop. If you have to make appointments, etc, schedule your cam schedule around them. For example, my schedule starts at 6am, I get on cam by 8am, and then get off before 6pm. Sometimes I take frequent breaks, or have a rough night but I still try and get on cam between the hours of 8am-6pm to make money. If I haven't, then I make sure I get on and work until I make my goal. If that means 12 hours, then that's what I have to do.
I set a daily and weekly financial goal. For example: My goal is between $167-$225 daily, 6 days a week. My weekly goal is to make no less than $1,000. If I work 6 days a week making $225, that's $1,350 but if I can't make $1,350 I make sure that I make my minimum goal of $167 which will put me at $1,002. Lately, I've been aiming for $225 so that I will have more than enough money. If I have to take an extra day off, I simply raise my goal to make up for it. This week I slacked off but I raised my goal for the next 3 days to $260 so I can make $1k.
I do have an overall goal of 6 months camming, with a $1k weekly minimum that I'm working towards. So, if I want to meet my goal by July, I absolutely HAVE to make this minimum or I've simply failed myself. I figure, as long as I stick to my schedule, pay my bills, and stay alive, I should have no issue reaching my goals. I've put my best foot forward, and the money is out there, I just have to be exposed to getting it.
I'm not sure how your schedule works out for you financially, but working during the day actually makes me more money than at night. "The early bird gets the worm." is my motto when it comes to days for me. To me it's luck meets opportunity. I figure, 8am guys are waking up to be at work by 9. They have morning wood, and we're online at that exact moment. They are looking to get off, and I'm looking to get their money. 12 noon is when they get a break for lunch. Lots of business owners and office dwellers are looking to get off from the stress of the earliest part of their day, and the stress they have to look forward to before they can go home. Then, some will like to get off before leaving for home, or before wifey gets home with the kids. 6pm tends to be the time things slow down for me, and dinner gets prepared depending on where in the world they are. With that being said, days are King for me.
I'd much rather wake up early and make $225 in the day, with time to spend with myself or hubs, than scrambling at night when timewasters are out of class, and I'm wanting to log out early to go to bed which results in my goal being completely obliterated.
If you need to do this, do what you gotta do. If you start to show and your clients aren't feeling it, you can go under the preggo fetish and bank there. Everything else will fall into place. Act now so that your money is right for when baby comes. You'll be able to do your art while he/she naps and you'll look back and be happy that you set yourself up financially for her/him. Good luck!

Great Advice Kortney! I WISH that daytime was good to me. Sadly, even after over 3 years of camming everyday, nite time has always been when the cam sites I'm on give me the most $$$$$$$$$.
I used to cam 8-10 hrs. per day when I first started, (mostly 4 a.m.-5 p.m., with 1 or 2 long breaks). I built up my customer base, but the action always happens when I am about to log off, or when I push to log in at night. I guess I'm going to have to adjust and turn myself into a nite owl, when I'd rather be sleeping.
Even my regulars come in during the day, but don't buy shows until I'm on late evening. Besides, I get mostly beggers and tons of insults during the day, but at night, all of a sudden I'm the best thing a guy has ever seen! it's so weird.
Oh, well.
Que sera sera.

So true. It's amazing how some of us bank in the day, and some at night. I've missed my schedule a few times in the day and I'd try to make it at night and I'd suck hard.

Thanks Kortney! And sorry it took so long for me to get back to you. I literally can't just keep myself out of bed lol.
I would LOVE to follow a schedule, but I don't know what to do to keep me from falling asleep all the time... but I really need to do this. Any advice on that?
I have issues trying to stay on to meet a weekly goal, but I think I need to get used to being on for two hours at a time, or when I need to take a break, I go back to camming for another two hours, like how you do.
With my boyfriend, I'm assuming that I need to get quite a bit of money saved of as quickly as possible so I can move to the state where he lives. I want to have 2k-3k by then. But my living expenses right now are pretty low (living on less than 1k a month). After I move, I'll need to have the focus and drive to make even more money to help pay for the new living expenses, baby stuff, and medical bills.
And wow, I never thought of day-time schedule working like that... I think that may be the same for me too, because the earlier I do start camming, the more money I make compared to when it starts becoming evening time. I've never tried camming later at night though.
Thanks so much for your help so far!!! <33

Last week didn't happen. I was close, but not at my weekly goal. That's okay, I actually plan on making it up and I just dropped a HUGE amount of pressure/bills from my "estranged" husband. I kicked his ass out of my apartment for the last and final time. After a 3 month separation, he didn't even make a week back with me. The whole "I turned a new leaf" was B.S. He's still a self entitled, over-emotional, bratty, 27 yr old who needs to grow the fuck up; just not with me.
So, like I said, I will be doing this challenge until July 11th which will be my official last day in the industry. This week I have no excuses NOT to make $1-1,350 :D

Try vitamin B. It helps me. Just have to be consistent with it... Also the more you sleep the more tired you will be. Force yourself to get out of bed in the morning and go for a jog/walk... These 2 things helps me...

The last time I did this challenge, I ended at $700 because I was sick for half of the week. So this week, I'm trying again and I'm at almost 30% so far.
I have same problem. For years i have been weaking at 5am for my ex regural job in the city and since i left that job i just cant wake up, i sleep too much and im even more sleepy. its like i became lazy and without energy. I will need to force myself to start waking up early again and that it becomes a habbit again to wake up at least at 8am.
Good luck girls

I find lately that waking up between 6am-8am has been helping me. I just have to make sure I start being productive early in the day so that it carries on throughout the day. Yesterday I woke up at 6AM and didn't go to sleep until 6PM, so that was a real big feat for me.
Now I just have to get over this yeast infection... ooooh pregnancy woes.

I just have a different journey I'd like to follow. As much as I respect the adult industry, it's financially beneficial to me, but for me it revives from childhood trauma and sexual abuse. I need to grow basically and let go of my past. For some it's just masturbating and stripping for money. For me, it's that, and a constant reminder of my past.
