Wishlist on cammodelstoys won't reveal my name if I enter my shipping information?

Nope, the only thing anyone sees is the first name on your main account when you first sign up. All the information on the wishlist shipping info is private.

Contest winners are in!

The Annual Day-After-Valentines Camgirl Massacre or Something Else Cool (Maybe with Zombies) Contest has winners!

In no particular order:

* CurvyWinona who takes home a fab new backdrop setup.

* AlyssiaAmoreXXX who takes home a shiny new C920 cam.

* CayMarie2140 who also takes home a spiffy new C920.

Everyone worked pretty hard this week, and I think the contest was a success. Good job bbs!

-------------------------------------------

Other general BoleynModels.com (http://www.boleynmodels.com) announcements:

- Transfers are on hold on SM until further notice. Existing models wishing to join need to make new accounts. (boo!)

- Payoneer verification is in the pipeline, non-American models will be very welcome soon.

- Plans for cams.com and c4s.com are on hold due to chargebacks in the former case, and logistics issues in the second. This will be revisited in a few months.

- We've put about 40% of any profits directly back into marketing for those on DailyCash program, which will start March 1st. I hope to see some good results with this. Another 20% is going toward recruiting advertising outside of SW :)

As always, if you have questions about our program, camming, or life in general, [email protected]

It was a project that I started strong but never quite got back to. I have about 4 other articles ready to go (including 2 that were written by paid contributors), I just need to edit them a bit and get some pictures with them to post. There have been a lot of other projects that took priority, but hopefully I can get to it in the next month or so. If anyone has some expertise to contribute, paid or unpaid, let me know.

Tiny announcement...

To help out with the House of Cam Slumber Party (http://houseofcam.com) this summer, we're giving $100 scholarships towards the deposit for all BoleynModels as well as a payment plan if they wish.

As part of our sponsorship, we'll also be covering some other minor costs and providing optional services for every model that attends, regardless of studio affiliation.

This week is "rent week" so we'll be running an additional payment time each day.

Also...

To help out on rent week, this week is the "7 Day Challenge"

The challenge is to cam every day for 7 days, so we'll be doubling everyone's the lowest paying day and paying that out again at the end of the week. Its the first day and so far a lot of participation :)

Pearl_Sugar
02-23-2014, 03:50 PM
Define "day" because I tend to work "nights" on cam, so I don't work until tonight, lol. Tonight will be my first "day" of the 7 day challenge, so I'll work tonight and then days the rest of the challenge. Something like that.

Yay rent week!

KatyBoleyn
02-23-2014, 04:40 PM
For Streamate, the first "day" started yesterday evening at 6pm (CST) and went to 6pm today, the full 24 hour pay period on SM and the start of the week for SM's pay cycle. This was also detailed in the two emails that were sent the day before and shortly after the challenge started :)

Side note: Is email the most effective way to get messages to people? It seems that no matter what I put in an email, its like only about 25% of everyone actually reads them. I also get responses to them sometimes 2 or 3 weeks later. The website thing is equally frustrating, as I have "DailyCash Program Info" pretty much front and center in giant pictures on the front page, but I get a lot of people saying "I couldn't find any information on your site."

This isn't venting, I really want to know how to do things better here.

I feel a little awkward putting this stuff in SW, even if it is my own thread, but messages seem to reach more of my own members this way. Twitter maybe? Should I make our own forum on the site? Emergency SMS system?

-----

Anywho...if you happened to miss this week's challenge, there will be plenty more in the near future. The idea guy here has no shortage of things to try out.

02-23-2014, 04:44 PM
Sorry for the confusion, you said zero dollar days count? So if I don't work today but work the rest of the six days in the challenge, will my lowest day (other then today) be doubled or are you out of the running so to speak?

KatyBoleyn
02-23-2014, 04:49 PM
We're debating some kind of "second chancers" rule right now. But under the original challenge, yes that was the idea.

If someone has a Streamate account through AWM or works with Vanessa, can they close their current account and open a new one with BoleynModels? Your program sounds amazing and like a lot of fun! Thank you!

Nocturnelle

Scarlet, that's what I did. I signed up with Vanessa and had to close it (transfer wouldn't work). Closed it on a friday, account was up and running monday morning!

Yes, you can do this in nearly all cases and this is the preferred method. You will start again with new model status, and we can attempt to keep your original name searchable if you wish. Currently we aren't accepting direct account transfers.

The only issue you may have is if you are still on a waiting period from a draconian studio contract, in that case you will need to wait 6 months from the last time you actually streamed on the site. We can help you with closing your old account if you have issues.

Pro-tip: When signing with us after closing an old account, be sure to use a new email address to save some time. We will ask you also for your best email address later to contact you, you just need the new one for account verification.

Thanks for this challenge. I've definitely needed some motivation to get on cam lately, so I'm going to be on for this entire week and hopefully the money will be enough inspiration for me to keep working more often.

Hi Katy,

I am seriously thinking of signing up to use your service, but am concerned about having to close my SM account and open a new one due to the time lost. Will you be doing transfers in the future do you think?

Probably not for a while, we seem to have exceeded our "patience quota" on behalf of the Streamate team regarding transfers, and it does create major accounting issues in some cases as we found out. I'll chat with them again this week to come up with a solution to try to preserve favorites and screen name on closed/re-opened accounts, but no promises.

Time lost, if everyone is on the ball, is actually very minimal. It can take them 2-4 days now to close an account, and about 5 to approve a new one (which you can start the process while the old one is being closed). You can work right up to the minute your account is closed, so if timing is good you're only out of work for about a day or two. They may also randomly start doing things fast again, as in late December it was taking them just 2 hours to close an account and 3 or 4 hours to approve one...slowly this has turned into days, but the ratio is about the same.

Starting over with a new model account, especially when you know what you're doing, is a very big boost as we've also found out.

Oh man I was all happy about the second chance with the challenge this week, but then I realized the heater's broken in the house and I hate camming cold LOL, and it's shark week. Also, weekends are usually out for me. I'll wait for the next one!

Good luck to you bbs that are participating!!! :D

Oh, and regarding the getting messages to us. I think this thread is probably the best way to get to us as a group. I figure send an email and copy that email here and you've got your bases covered. That's just my 2 cents :)

space_cowgirl
02-24-2014, 07:21 PM
Sorry for another dumb question; so, if I email SM support to close my account, the next step is to sign up online at the BM site and then you will set up my new SM account under the studio?

KatyBoleyn
02-24-2014, 09:03 PM
Yes, that is correct. Be sure to use a new email address and ask for a slightly different screen name or we'll need to do some tricks.

KatyBoleyn
02-27-2014, 09:22 PM
For all the fanfare, we went from 32 starting on opening day(s) of the 7 Day Challenge, down to just 4 remaining on day 5.

I've also attached a forum (www.boleynmodels.com/forum) for better communication with everyone in the BoleynModels program. You'll be able to set up your own alerts and such, and I can just post all the latest info on the different aspects of our program(s). I've also been posting when payouts are completed for each time period. Future mass emails will basically say "Go read the forums."

If I recognize you as being in the program on the member list, I'll verify you and you'll be able to see the insider stuff. Registered members (not necessarily in our program) will also have a little increased access.

This forum is in no way intended to replace SW as a social forum, and topics are generally just useful for those in the BoleynModels program for specific discussions on that.

Challenges for March Madness have been announced! We have 3, but I think they're a little weak...certainly not as hardcore as the last one.

Maybe I'll squeeze another tough one in the 3rd week of March.

So I have a question for girls who have successfully made the switch (namely ones that had to delete their account/start over) and I guess this is the place to ask it. Did you have trouble at first? Did your regs find you or did you have to start over with new customers? Any tips to make the transition as smooth as possible?

Also, question about payment... if I delete my account in the middle of a pay period and make a new one through BoleynModels what happens to the money in the old account?

RaeRae
03-12-2014, 08:12 PM
My regs found me pretty quickly. My username was very, very similar, and I made sure to use the same profile pic for a while to help with that. The ones who haven't come back are guys who came on during hours of the day I no longer work. Now I feel like I should try late nights again to see if that changes.

So long as you've already made minimum payout and its an account deletion/creation, then there's no issues. You'll get paid on the regular schedule from SM.

The only messes happen when you either a) didn't make the payout before the account closure or b) did an actual account transfer while you have funds sitting there. This holds true for IMLive also.

For Chaturbate, DO NOT cash out your tokens before the transfer if they don't add up to the minimum. Big mess that way. If you just leave your tokens in your account, they will transfer with you without issues and we can pay you when they cash out.

As for regs, they won't have issues finding you. If you have 5000+ favorites and are currently very active, there are some tricks we can try, but for the most part the "new model" status is very powerful along with most of your regs finding you again anyways.

I can't tell you ladies how motivating it is to wake up with $$$ in the bank 1-2 days after making it! Thank you so much Katy for all your help & this wonderful program ^_^

We're slowly getting our **** together now that hubby is on summer vacation. I've basically been running everything in maintenance mode while I focused on my own camming and he was doing grad research, but things are definitely picking up again. Our partnership with SWS studio in Vegas has given us a lot of new things to integrate into our own program, so look for those coming soon. Namely, the owners managed to usurp the patent rights for the interactive vibes, which we can now test for them, and some of their models are in our daily pay program - and back to us we may start offering an indy platform where clients can just pay and you do your show anywhere (on that site, on yahoo, on Skype) and it gets rolled into your daily pay. Lots of cool stuff in the works, we'll see which ones stick and which ones sink.

Anyways, first post is updated, and I'll be working my way through the websites to make sure all the info matches our current program. We have plans for a month-long contest for the studio girls shortly, but we need to structure it in such a way that everyone has a fair chance at getting something...not so easy now that we have Vegas studio models in the same program. I'm also going to try to be generally more social, since the kids are home and I can't work days any more.

I'm joining! I know I'll make much more than I do now if I can see my money within 1-3 days than a month out.

I'm trying to keep up on what's going on with the whole SM transfer/new account thing and I'm mega confused by the back-and-forth in the thread (sorry! I might just be blind, honestly). Which of these options is it that's happening (with the sub stuff I THINK happens as well)?

1) Close my account by sending SM support an email, THEN apply with you on your site with my new name request.
* Means losing favorites/payment history/comments/tags/ratings
* Will need to get gold shows, static pics, and break button re-enabled
* Get new girl status back
* Different account name/email
* Fastest, because I can work my 'old account' until it's closed while getting my 'new account' verified
* Katy will do the opening of the new account for me?

2) Transfer account by applying to Katy
* Keep favorites/ratings/comments/tags/etc; still lose payment history?
* Same name/email
* Slower because of transfer
* Should be able to work continuously while moving from SM only to Katy?

I spend a lot of time confused. Sorry lovely, but thank you much for answering my questions (probably for the millionth time)

I'm about to completely deprecate this thread because of all the back and forth. We'll be "re-launching" our program on the 1st of July with a new website and I'll make a new thread for that and see if we can archive or delete this one.

I think you already emailed me, and we just came off a 4 day vacation. I'll be working my way through the backlog today and tomorrow and you'll get an email from us shortly on the transfer situation.

The short and confusing answer is: Most of option 1 + some points from 2.

I was checking out your KatyBoleyn site, and the way you word things is so perfect. So professional and real...I love that. :) I think I'm gonna join you for CamModelDirectory and ImLive daily pay.

TheBrownFox
07-02-2014, 08:29 PM
One question about ImLive though...I'm currently doing private chat only mode on there. When I switch over to daily pay, they won't make me do that mandatory Free Live Chat (that they make their new models do), will they???

EDIT: Nevermind, I just saw the post saying that you have to restart on ImLive. I'm not willing to restart and have to deal with mandatory free live chat. When I joined that site, I became a model on there PRIOR to that whole mandatory FLC bs, so I was one of the lucky ones. I wanna keep that (the benefit of FLC being optional).

KatyBoleyn
07-02-2014, 08:52 PM
I never quite understood that anyways, you still get the button available to take yourself out of free chat any time. If anyone can explain the difference because I really have no idea. They say "mandatory" but I always had the option to just hit the button and switch out of it.

TheBrownFox
07-02-2014, 09:16 PM
RaeRae posted in the verified group, but I'm confused. From what she's saying, it sounds like when I start over I CAN'T use the 'temporarily pause free chat' button. And also...how long is "temporary?"

I'm like ready to sign up for this tonight, but I need to understand this better, because I cannot stand Free Live Chat on that site. And 120 hours of it? No way...

KatyBoleyn
07-02-2014, 09:28 PM
I'll see if I can find anyone to test it. From the first minute on the site I could hit the button as much as I wanted though, so I never understood the mandatory thing. They did send me an email saying my time was up not long ago, and I was like "Gee...umm...thanks I guess."

I'll make a more formal announcement and update the first post about it, but basically there's a ton of other sites you can try out...currently we have:

CMD (full transfers)
SM (partial transfers = restart plus favorites/comments)
CB (full transfers)
IMLive (restarts only)
Cams.com (full transfers)
MFC (brand new only)
F4F (full transfers after we get 2 more new signups complete)
iFriends (full transfers)
Webcams.com (transfers unknown, but probably)

All of those accept brand new accounts through us also. We're going to add one or two more as soon as we complete the deals.

RaeRae
07-02-2014, 11:44 PM
Ack! I was just about to go to bed when I wrote that, so I may have stated it really badly. I use the temporary pause button all the time! I've stayed hidden from free chat for more than an hour at a time before when I've not had the patience for free chat. I haven't even reached my 120 hours yet overall. You just have have to remember to re pause it after each private as it sends you back into free chat after a 3 min timer. The one time I forgot to press the button, I got yelled at by support for showing nudity in free chat as I didn't realize I was out there.

Can members still take you to private while paused/hidden?

RaeRae
07-03-2014, 05:24 AM
Yes, they definitely can. It also tells you that on the prompt that appears when you pause it. I love the private chime from IML when I'm doing normal privates on another site, but seems like i tend for them to show up the most in my fetish shows that I don't want other people in on. I don't get it.

I created a user account just to see what members view when you are temporarily paused, and it prompts them to add credits to take you private if you don't have any and tells you the models price per min (and that the first 20 seconds are free) and gives an option for a discount code. However, I notice that my user account didn't show up in the free text chat, and I don't know if that's still working any more since I haven't seen a guy there since the site update.
