I feel lame compared to y'all! I've made $130 in the last 2 days. So lame.

Don't sweat it, my first day I only made about $27. The next day was better. I am struggling today because I REALLY want to be outside in the sun enjoying spring finally being here and I am going to have to lock myself up in my house and work all day. LLLAAAAMMMMEEEE! At least I will be happy later that I have cash to spend when the ocean warms up enough for swimming!! =)

This week has been rough since I've been so busy with school. Unable to cam in the mornings in between classes. But working my butt off in the late afternoons and evenings. (have to be in bed by midnight so I can get some sleep before my 7:45 am class)

Okay so I've been busy and forgot to update my ticker... I was trying to track a bunch of stuff (like # of books sold per distributor per day) and I've gotten behind... I really don't feel like trying to figure it out SO I'm starting over! From April 1st to Oct 1st, back to 0 for now.

I can't get my ticker to work :( I'm up $500 though. started using a new site a couple nights ago and have been pulling $100 a night so far.

This hustler's butt needs to get in gear. I lose my new model status any day now, so I gotta get that money before the slow season hits on SM.
What are the other good cam, PSO, and texting sites you lovelies use? I would love to move predominantly towards PSO and texting, but I refuse to let go of the income from camming without replacing it. I can work twice as many hours in a day (sometimes three times as many, even) without getting burned out and it would mean not worrying so much about it biting me in the butt later when I go back into my healthcare career. So, yes, thoughts ladies?

I am updating my ticker to include my beach trip and home spruce up project. Some things came up so I have to go a bit cheaper than planned. So 2300 is for home that is needed by the end of august. 1500-1800 for the beach is needed by the end of june. So I will start over today and will only put the money I saved for the rewards on my ticker so that at the end of june it will show my beach money being made and at the end of august my house money :) I hope I can add 3 more sites to this so for now just sm. I will have bigger goals later :)

Your Minimum Goal: $3800

lmoa I don't remember what my goal was that I posted on here. I've been so hyped about going to Vegas with my male companion I've been seeing a lot this month. I think I gotta find that post and put that goal some where I can see it daily.
I didn't get on much this week cause I actually had horrible PMS and cramps . I am hoping I can work tomorrow and Saturday to at least break $100 to get paid from SM. I got a few up coming checks from affiliates and camming I gotta make sure those go in my high interest account so I can really make my trip a reality plus I really don't want to disappoint my companion on this whole trip idea.
Issabelle
04-04-2014, 03:47 PM
Okay. I'm making myself get on cam for the next hour. I took all of yesterday off. I need the burn-out break. But it's back to money making. That ticker WILL break $1100 tonight, at least.
Edit: Went for 45 minutes (gotta run to my vanilla job), but managed $25. Lots of peepers, few biters, but a little bit closer to my goal.

No problem, bb! I'm on a mini burn out break but I'll be back on cam on Monday. I'm still working my reg and doing skype shows so I'm making up the difference but it's time for me to get back to ballin'! My new laptop won't get here until around the 16th but I'm holding onto my shitty one for dear life.

04-05-2014, 01:03 PM
kortney plz help me . I posted on the arousr forum but didn't really get a good answer. I signed up twice with them and I have another app page up now to do it again. I thought maybe my pic didn't look good so gonna make another.I signed up 3 days ago and again last night, where it asked for twitter I put I didn't have one but would make one and anything else to promote. I just don't have them now I also put my sm link and my history on there. How long does it take to be approved do you think they just don't want me? Also do I have to promote myself I just want a little from this a week maybe 100 and I figured they would send me traffic too right?
Also do they send 1099s or how do we go about taxes thanks alot if u or anyone else can help me.
I really want to work there so bad because I know I can make good money with it on the side.Thanks.
kortneykay
04-05-2014, 02:45 PM
^^^ Try going to the site and giving her a call. Tell her that you really would like to come aboard and you have experience. She has denied girls who she doesn't think will make the site money but I would give her a call so she can look into your application. About traffic, you can send your own but there's traffic there. She does not send 1099s because the business is in Canada so that's something you will have to do if you receive checks. Good luck!
brittany_bitch
04-05-2014, 02:59 PM
Thanks so muck kortney :)
Do you know where the number is located on the site? I really don't see it then again fine print is like double vision for me and I can't really read too small of text u should see my chat letters on sm lol they r huge. I will definitely call her as soon as I find a number what is her name? Maybe she will hire me I believe I could make money I put that I could work 56 hours a week daamn lol. So if I receive checks you mean I need to report that then right on my own?
Thanks so much.
brittany_bitch
04-05-2014, 03:02 PM
Also all I wanted was 100 a week that should be doable right ?
kortneykay
04-05-2014, 04:47 PM
Depends on you. If the guys like what they see and are willing to pay for premium text/phonesex/etc then $100 a week is very possible. The number can be found here www.telepass.cc her name is Karen and yes, if you get checks you have to file your own since Canadian companies don't give out 1099s.

04-05-2014, 06:27 PM
Thanks alot kortney :)
I hope she lets me start I am calling now I will report back with my results thanks so much.

You should try calling Mon-Fri during the hours of 9am-5pm EST
brittany_bitch
04-05-2014, 07:20 PM
okay yeah I haven't called yet lol I was getting through all my tabs then I was gonna call. Thanks I will call monday I guess. I had so many prospective sites and none of them seem to fit what I need. I wanted more eggs and I wanted one or two private only sites adultwork is too confusing and I saw you have to pay for the software it was all so confusing to me. I see on kink live I would need a few props and have to talk and show face to probaly get alot of clients and I don't do either on sm and do well.
I am happy with sm I just wanted extra and in case sm was bad one week hasn't been bad for me yet fingers crossed. I would love to look into more chat sites but all these threads have old info I tried to bump a few of them.
I just wanted three sites maybe 2 text 1 pvt only or 2 pvt only and 1 text site.
Sigh.

Hustle of choice: Video content, so C4S and ELM
High goal: $2,100
Minimum goal: $1,200
Start date: 4/1/14
Completion date: 9/30/14

Haven't gotten onto cam much this week. Gonna hit it super hard tomorrow to make up for that, but I made ~$500 this week on cam/text so that's not too bad altogether. Gonna try for $1000+ next week. My PT vanilla job usually makes me about $125/week, so it seems doable.
On a side note/vent thing, I have one guy on Arousr who's pretty much constantly talking to me. Text, phone, skype--he wants all of it and he's been on every single day. It's nice and good money, but he literally sends me messages that he tried to 'surprise call' when I was offline or that he wants to skype while driving! Like 24/7 he wants to chat. Money is great, but he keeps talking like he's gonna meet up with me and we'll date. Ew, no thank you. I lie about all of my basic info (name/location/degree/friends), but I still hate when they get too...clingy? That's a good word for it. Just screams prospective stalker to me. Like, he's constantly on Skype trying to send me notifications (and found me on there before I even knew my account was set up) and calls/texts within 15 seconds of my logging into Arousr. Just really, really creepy. Ugh.

This wasn't the best week for me to join this challenge :( I'm at 621.18 and I've worked four days- I was hoping to have 800 easily by now, but it's been crickets for me this week. At least this challenge is forcing me to treat camming like the job that it is. Here's to a better week!
SweetJulia
04-06-2014, 08:23 AM
Just an update on today. I DO NOT WANNNNNNTTTTTT! to cam :( shark week is upon me and she's being a true definition of bloody cunt as in my mood is to snap and bite off everyone who pisses me off. I'm going to text and do phone sex but as far as camming is concerned they can go fuck themselves. I have a customer on skype who I promised a 15 min show but he can go fuck himself as well until tomorrow :P
That's right, everyone should go fuck themselves and make a bunch of money lol:)
Issabelle
04-06-2014, 07:31 PM
Okay, I'm forcing myself out of my funk. Staying up until 4/5 a.m. and then sleeping all day long until like noon or 2 p.m. is really wrecking my days. Whoops? Anyway, I think I'll be much better at getting them eggs if I force myself to be in bed by 1 a.m. and up by 9 a.m. Make my shifts back into daytime ones.
At any rate, I just hit $25 for the last hour of sexting on Arousr and I have a Skype show set up with one of those clients later tonight (though, he's the creepy one who wants to meet up, so I may flake on that show, good money or not). I think I'll text for a bit longer than head to bed and call tomorrow my 'get back on track Monday' with at least four hours of camming.

04-07-2014, 06:00 AM
Bam! Turned in a bitty editing project, easy $100. On my way, ladies!!

04-07-2014, 07:04 AM
Well... I ended the week at $917 with a goal of $1000. It's still my best week yet. I don't count amazon giftcards into the total but if I did that would bring me to about $1200 for the week. I feel good about it though. I was only on SM for about 6 hours this week and did a few independent cam shows. I have no doubt that If I get consistent this week with SM I can meet or exceed my $1000 goal! Even though I didn't meet my goal, this week has only motivated me more!
kortneykay
04-07-2014, 12:20 PM
Bought a scratch off the other day and won $106 and then the finsub dropped $1,500 which will be the last big payment for a while. Le sigh, now its time to get back to work lol!
IvyRose
04-07-2014, 03:12 PM
How awesome Kortney, congrats!!
I call it a day, at 520.. I am so happy about today, bec I was aiming for the 400 and the last 50bucks where soo hard to attain with my body being sore. But when I got to my goal the pvts and excl picked up and I made even more without to much trouble
I was lucky with one reg spending over a hundred (my part) on me in one excl session
Having to update my Ticker still since last week; will do that tomorrow, looking forward to doing that ^^
Issabelle
04-07-2014, 04:48 PM
Okay. I forced myself on cam for a voyeur show to get back into camming mood. It worked well. Made like $6 for an hour of that, but was texting at the same time, so I made about $15 for the hour by cleaning and studying topless. It's just a little victory to get me ready for more tonight and into tomorrow morning. :)

I need to make $700 this Streamate payperiod for my rent: @$180 so far, $520 to go. Breaks down to only $104 a day from now til the pay period end. I can do this. I seriously feel like I have ADD though. I'll do well for an hour, then do a show, go pee and wanna quit. Whyyyy !!! Hustling this week no more of this !!!
Issabelle
04-09-2014, 03:21 AM
Yeah, that $200 goal? So didn't happen. If anything, my funk has turned into a mega funk. For full explanation in a song, I would like to direct all of you ladies to one Emily Autumn's 'Thank God I'm Pretty.' Be warned, the remainder of this post is a vent session only you girls (of the Pretty People line) are liable to understand.
Last weekend, my girlfriend (who is a bartender) pointed me in the way of a very attractive guy who was totally my type. I ended up giving him my number last night (with much liquid courage required) and got no call. Irritating, but fine, whatever, I'm a catch you're missing dude. That night, I get into a massive fight with my dear guy friend from back in high school about how he finds me too 'strongly sexual' and 'flirtatious' and that it's clearly my fault that he feels the need to cheat on his girlfriend/suggest being fuck buddies out of the damned blue! According to him, I can homewreck from a different state. I call him on how not cool that shit is and proceed to get insulted for not apologizing for my 'behavior,' which remains unspecified by him, then get blocked on facebook (because childish is the theme of the night). Next, I spend tonight enjoying myself with my bartender girlfriend while she works and go home to get warning texts from her that two of her coworkers (who are 2 and 4 decades older than me, respectively) are, separately, going to ask me for dinner or going to ask me to go on a trip out of town. I barely know them and they hunt me down on facebook to try to chat. To top it off? My ex has started calling and saying he wants to visit me after six months of no communication from him. Mind you, the last time we made plans he bailed after I'd gotten the time off work, so him demanding my attention now is just aggravatingly pathetic.
No. Just no. I am so fucking tired of being told that being attractive and extroverted makes me a whore, a target for the desperate, or not deserving of the attention of decent men. I just want to be able to go out to a freaking bar with friends in peace and not leave feeling like a sex toy or, god forbid, have a male friend who doesn't suddenly think it's his right to joke about fucking me. If I'm gonna do that, you'd better pay me. Jesus, sometimes I leave the house only to remind myself why I never should!
That is the current source of my funk. End rant. Now, back to making money since that's out of my system.

It's been rough for me this week. Emotional relationship BS just makes me not want to get online sometimes. I had a better day yesterday and made about $60. Not great but it's better than nothing. Just got out of the shower and about to do my hair and make up and go at for the rest of the day. Hope everyone has a great day!
kortneykay

Ladies, I got my car today and I owe it to camming! You can make your goals, keep pressing on!!! SO EXCITEDDDDDDDDDDD AHHH!
Issabelle
04-09-2014, 08:49 PM
I shouldn't have said I was gonna make it a $200 day. SM is dead. Arousr is dead. Even my skype stuff is dead and the one guy who really wants a show (like, begged in my SM show when he knows to email me) is asking for PayPal (lolz nope). My Arousr regular found me on my skype account through the site, but doesn't wanna start the show we agreed on yet.
Fuck the universe.
Edit: $30.96 currently. I'm leaving for the bars in 22 minutes either way.
Sabihah
04-09-2014, 11:54 PM
I published a schedule on my website today, and I think that's really going to help me stick to my hour goals... I planned 4 hours today and actually did 3.5 of them, logged off MFC a tad early to protect my camscore (the room was dead after I got back from a longish private). I feel pathetic admitting it, but that's more than I've worked almost any day this month! +$225 and feeling good. :)
kortneykay
04-10-2014, 10:31 AM
I totally understand how you ladies feel. I've been ducking out on cam because my laptop won't stand up and has slid all the way down in a few shows. I'm thinking I might have to cam in my bedroom which is fine but I prefer my bedroom for sleep, and my office for work. This new laptop is taking forever to get here and I'm over waiting. I just want to splitcam sooo badly but can't until next week.
ETA! I just got an email from HP saying it has shipped and I'll be getting it in 5 days instead of 8 so that's better news. However, I paid like $80 for 2 days shipping and this shit is going to be here in 5 days so I'm going to be calling HP. Sorry but 2 days means 2 days so they're going to credit me back because someone at the post didn't pay for expedited shipping like they were supposed to :P

Sorry I've been absent. Like Staples, I've been dealing with emotional issues (my bitch of a roommate basically decided to end her lease at the end of this month and tell my boyfriend-her cousin-who just moved in rather than me). So needless to say, I've been a horrible, cranky bitch, and its affected my relationship. Today I decided fuck it, she's not keeping me from making bank! Sorry ladies for not being more active and supportive. Going to try a new camsite or something, IML has been sketchy lately. I think I will also be changing my goal. I've been sucking lately BUT, my BF and I will NOT be moving in August, will we move after OCT, so that gives me more time to make goal. Keep going girls, happy Thursday and make that money $$!!

Issabelle
04-10-2014, 12:22 PM
Life is much better after a few drinks and lunch with good girl friends. Thank god.
Been doing decently well with Arousr and got a show schedule with a regular on Skype who wants me to block 30-60 minutes, with the promise of tips. At my rate, that's an easy $100-200 for the hour. Also, I finally got my business bank account set up going and my business license came through, plus about $300 in checks. It's a very, very good Thursday.
Also, the boy from the bar I mentioned earlier who didn't call me? Yeah, his buddy saved his ass last night by explaining his friend's bizarre, awkward, and adorably terrified behavior by more or less saying 'he's never had such an aggressive girl interested in him and he likes you, but he's already shy and now he's just terrified. But I've known him for years and he's a great guy, so...just be more aggressive. He needs it.'
I'm a closet dominatrix. It's an official thing now.

Yours truly did a 12 hour camathon and made just short of 800, see reflected ticker. Now I can relax and wait for Shark Week, which starts at any point between tomorrow and Monday. Keep up the amazing work ladies, KK could you PM me about some Arousr issues when you get a chance, Pretty please :D

I finally had a good enough day to make an update on here! I'm still behind where I want to be, but I'm trying to make 1000 this weekend, or at least by Monday afternoon. I'm at 324/1000 so far and I hit that in four hours today.
Issabelle
04-12-2014, 10:50 PM
Holy shit. The last two nights were a disaster of epic proportion for camming. My skype show on Arousr had to be moved again because of the rules for payment that I was told originally being different from what my customer was told so that had to be straightened out. We were supposed to do it today, but didn't happen. I know giving customers my email is against the rules, but trying to communicate through the text platform just to set up a paid show is fucking difficult and the customers have to pay for shows. I don't even wanna steal traffic--I just wanna make this process less like pulling teeth sans Novocaine. Hah.
But it all improved tonight. After absolutely zero show for two days and a week of very shitty ones before that (like <$20 each night), I hit gold again tonight with a customer who wanted 40 minutes of me actually getting off plus talking. Thank the lord above everyone. Made over a $100 today for the first time in like two weeks.
Now, going boy hunting again. He's a tough one to crack, but I got kissed last night so I think I'm making progress there too. Hah!
