Well fuck, SM contest tryna make a woman outta me lolollll.

56471

I don't even know how I kept my cool for basically 3 hrs straight. Goddamn, not even min wage? MMM, Lord, God, Buddha, Source...give me the strength to get back on after a break and wait for that whale :D

UPDATE:

6 hrs $36. Man, that's just how the cookie crumbles sometimes. I've got 5 more chances. Gonna sleep good and try again tomorrow.

So this was the beginning of the SM contest later AM hours. STFO does work sometimes, and sometimes the hours you GTFO matter too.

I had basically zero luck STFO 7-12pm CST this week. I GTFO from 11:30pm and STFO with way better results tonight.

This is one of the reasons I don't get upset with myself when it's slow. It's not me...there just isn't any buyers at times. Cause if it was me I wouldn't have made this tonight:

56512

STFO 2 more hours!!!

I have been bemoaning this week and last. I've put in nearly 30 (at 27, will hit 30) hours this week and have made a bit over $800. I'd have liked my hourly to be higher and I'd have liked if there hadn't been so many dead hours or shit days. Last week I did better but was from a couple of amazing days, and the rest were awful.

But you know what, it wasn't that long ago that I was happy if I made $400 and wasn't even putting in 10 hours some weeks! Pathetic. So... still on track for over $3k this month and the difference is actually putting in some effort and showing up to my job, and not clocking out early. And I'm hoping things will improve in February, meanwhile I'll still be putting in the hours and hopefully being rewarded for my perseverance!

30 hours done and 940 made. Can't complain really but I'm going to because it was brutal.

Damn am I tired today. But, I’m ready to get the fuck on and stay the fuck on because I have a good feeling today. I feel something good is coming and I am ready to accept it. So here goes another full 10 hour day (damn maybe even more if I’m feeling up to it. Idk I’m just feeling that confident in the universe today). Good luck STFO y’all. Let’s GO

Well final day of the week and Saturday usually sucks for me so I said a prayer going in.

90 minutes in and yep it sucks ass but never mind 4.5hrs to go and $170 from my weekly goal, it's not impossible but it's looking improbable not going to lie.

UPDATE: OMG 5.5hrs in and I'm literally $27 away from goal because it's been steady the last hour I'm sitting here until I make it, all the way up to cutoff if necessary.

Some how I did 8 hrs , somehow I'm not even pissed off that I didn't make minimum wage across all sites. Deader than dead. I am looking forward to hopefully 3 weeks straight of no contests on SM

Really going to need to STFO powers to do 3-4 hours today/tonight. If I can manage to do at least an hour chunk during the day then I can aim for a total of 4 hours.

I did actually end up doing over 3 hours; I did like 40 minutes earlier and at one point my traffic completely died, like to a freakish extent that made me assume the site was glitching, so I came back later and was busy with regs and made $270 in two-and-a-half hours or 2 hours and 45 minutes, not sure what exactly I was at when I left. I'm annoyed because the same thing that usually happens to me during contest weeks happened again: it's slower than usual because of the contest so I give up easily and then towards the end of the week when I start sticking it out because I have to it ends up being fine and I regret not making more of an effort earlier in the week.

Also NOT STFO today, didn't even want to log on but Saturdays can be really good lately so I hopped on hoping to catch a busy hour or two but I've given it 15 minutes and have no traffic and made $0 so bye bye. NEXT WEEK I AM STREAMING FOR 20 HOURS.

31.5/30, 6.5 last night and a hour today. Finally got the bit rate glitch today and the hour was only worth it due to one dude.

I need to really just work these hours on non contest weeks, I actually would make more then after prize some weeks. There is something about competition that pushes me though. I had hoped to be up to 40ish hours on contest weeks, but I need to be reasonable with myself that with everything else going on in my life that may not be possible right now. Still proud of pushing my patience despite boredom and glitches this week. And of course proud of you all as well.

7hrs and high goal exceeded, this is why I STFO and now SM has to give me that $100 as well so high goal way exceeded including that. What a week phew!

I'm literally $10 away from my 350 dollar goal and my first shift is just now ending. So glad I forced myself to get up get ready and gtfo. Five more days of this and I'll be very happy at the end of the week and I can take Saturday off.

Yesterday ended $12 away from my goal. I was $12 away from my goal for like 4 hours out of 10 :)))))).
New day, 10 hours. I'm gonna push hard till the end of the month, probably not gonna take any other day off, because in february I will finally go in a vacation and I'll also take 4 days off on my period, this time.
The vacation probably gonna happen at the end of the month, after the Valentine's Day crowd and prices.

Meanwhile, woork beeechh!

Edit: Bailing after 8 hours. I made under $100, one of those bad days. I would have sticked for 2 more hours, but I'm just too down. Tomorow trying to login 1 hour earlier.

It's so good to see you're rockin it Ladies!! I took off last week, as I had to create a business model account, so I thought it was the perfect time to rest a little bit. I started with the new acc yesterday, and I made above $160 in 5,5 hours, which is really good for me. I hope this fresh new start will boost my earnings in the long run!

Today starts a new week for me. Had to re-evaluate some of my work schedule. Right now, the need for cash is immediate. I’m going to stop working on clips and things until it is less dire. I’m going to shoot for 7 hrs a day 5 days a week regardless of reaching my money goal earlier. I was working 6 days a week until my money Goal previously.

I just can’t do that and be totally present for my kids. Too burnt out.

So, I start today after my husband’s psychiatrist appointment and go to goal. Kids are at their dads, so some burnout is acceptable this week given our wild financial situation.

Fuck, I am back. So, I went home, all burned out and annoyed and I went straight to play on console. I played for about 30- 45 min and got bored. I suddenly realized I feel like finishing the last 2 hours of my 10 hours shift. Thankfully I didn't take my makeup off, so I refreshed it and headed back to work.
Proud of myself! Turns out I just needed a break lol.
From now on, if it's way too slow after 6 hours, I take a 2-3 hours break and come back and finish the last 4 hours.

Just did an hour and I'm at $13.30, I'm aiming for 5-6 more hours tonight, I'll probably pull an all-nighter + try to film too.

Cam has been horrendously slow for me for a week now, but I'm just going to put in a ton of hours this week and hopefully get some money for bills. How do you guys deal with not being able to take breaks/holidays from cam?

I've taken time off due to pretty bad sickness recently, but I've not an an *actual* break in so long. I'm so burnt out but unfortunately this month has been slow, so I need to keep going. Any advice would be helpful! :)

You have to force yourself to take time off when it's needed, I know it's hard when the money simply isn't there and bills are piling up but it's also crucial to avoid burnout by trying to work when you know you need a rest.

Take that few days or a week off and you can almost guarantee you will return with a better mindset and we all know the biggest draw for cash is confidence and mental wellbeing.

I've taken a week off when I had $50 in the bank before because I knew I was killing my mental health by trying to work when I knew I wasn't up to it.

Agreed! If you look at my last post here, I burnt myself out trying to be a mom and work 6 days a week. Totally collapsed for 2.5 days.
I also put clips on the back burner because I need the larger and quicker income from consistent camming. I’d recommend cutting that back and giving yourself at least 1.5 days off to recover. And/ or a few hour break and split your shift if possible.

Also thank you for the response to my question guys! I think I was overly tired when I typed it lol, I had a nap and feel a decent bit better now. But you're right I do need to take a break, there's only 7 days left of the month so as soon as Feb hits I'm going to take some days off (I think, aha).

I've accepted that it's just a slow month so money is going to be tight with bills etc, but hopefully it will pick back up for me! For my video schedule I actually decided last week to halve the frequency that I upload, so that should help too

I haven't had a proper time off since summer, when I went in a one week vacation. Other than that, I don't think I took more than 3-4 days off (in a row) in the past 4 months. Actually I will, in february. I start feeling burned out, thanks to this slow month, so I get you. I do split my shifts as I don't have energy to pull 10 hours in a row for now. The fact that now I mostly work 5 days and then take 1-2 days off, helps a lot.

When it comes about content making, I did burn myself uploading 1 clip per day. Yes, it was good money, but you're eventually out of ideas. So plan that accordingly.
When it comes about camming, try splitting. I can't work on only one site, it would ruin my income. If you have a fast computer, try to add one more site.

Other than that, try to split your shifts, nothing wrong with that!
And take 2 days off. With or without the $$ you make, will be no difference if you are not ok. You will be able to get back all fresh and ready to tackle the last 3 days of the month and probably do better.
