Oooh, Smurfette, thanks for the stories idea! I'm going to add 4 stories to my goal. They'll be good to work on during the slow times.

Daylight Savings Time is on the 8th so don't forget to set your clocks accordingly, bbs. Yay for an extra hour of sleep and an extra hour to hustle on SM, lol.

Today was a clusterfuck of real life interfering (damn you doctors who have no concept of time) so I didn't get as many hours in, so I'll be putting in extra tomorrow. But so far I have been doing really well with uploading my clips, and filming a bit each day. I'm actually very proud of myself! I've started the FTP shit with some other clip sites in addition to C4S as well, so hopefully I'll sell more clips than ever!


Is anyone going to spoil themselves with goodies for making it? I really, really need a new cell phone. Mine gives me all sorts of trouble so I'm also going to throw in a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 in the mix!

This is brilliant! I might do a mini-reward each Saturday (my day off cam). I need a pedicure real bad, so that's going to be this Saturday!

I'm going to a rope bondage class tonight and then getting on at around 10:00 for another 12 hour shift.

That class sounds amazing! How do you find classes like these? I am clearly hanging out with the wrong peeps, because nobody ever goes to rope bondage class.

Fetlife girl! Find groups in your area. They usually do public dinners so you can meet people and then get an invite to play parties and kink classes after you've met the group leaders at the public events.

day one did my target in the first 3 hrs, which was lucky because my last guy had a chain smoking fetish... i smoked 3 cigarettes in a row and spent the rest of the day hanging over the toilet haha!

Staples

Got on several hours late because my bondage class went long. That's ok though I fucking got strung up in an inverted suspension and it was sooooo fun. I'm still flying from the high it gave me. I might not hit my 12 hour target tonight but I'll make up for it by working a few hours on Wednesday which I was originally going to take off.

Staples

It's not quite as busy as it has been the last 2 shifts but I've still made over my goal and I only have an hour left on the shift.

Home from my vanilla job (a little over four hours and $90 in my pocket, which isn't bad for a lunch shift). Gonna do at least 4-5 hours on cam tonight before I call it, which will put me at about 8-9 hours for the day.

Both puppy's papers and my utility bill are taken care of as of right now. Nice to start a month 100% caught up on bills and ready to bank!

So some shit went majorly south and I haven't been able to cam yet, but thankfully some of it is sorted now and I have just completed my first 2 hours of March Madness. Not sure if I will be able to keep up with my clip goals this month, but everything else will be on track. I will be a fighter this month for sure.

Staples
03-04-2015, 04:29 AM
Well, I guess that can't ALL be good nights lol. Been on for a little over 6 hours and I still haven't hit my goal. Sloooow as fuck. Kind of typical of mid-week for me though. I'm still putting in the hours it's just rough tonight or should I say this morning.

I'm doing this again. It's been a little slow this morning, but that's fine. I don't exactly have a money goal in mind. I think having a time goal and a money goal would be too stressful.

Today my plan is to practically live on cam. I hopped online for an appointment at 8:00am, which is crazy early for me. I think it will pick up at around 11am like it does every day. Like Staples said, it's always slow in the middle of the week and most of the guys I get around this time are at work and want an office fap. :P

Anyways, my day's plans are:

- Social Media (Twitter, Tumblr, etc)
- Work on my new website design
- 10 new clip ideas
- Work for 8 hours (not including breaks)
- Post new listings on CMD & NF

EDIT: Usually I fail at this stuff because my fiance isn't supportive. He gets scared I'll burn out, which is a valid concern. However, he is super supportive this month! He's been making me coffee, helping with cooking all the meals, and doing all my social media (besides Twitter, he hates Twitter so much). It's great! I'm doing really well today, especially considering it's a Wednesday. I plan on doing ten hours today!

I'm still working on working 200 hours a month since the year began.. came close but no cigar.. I have no money goal just my average hourly rate that I do on cam.. .. I would be doing really well if I could get it to 6 grand for the month which is completely doable if I actually work 200 hours!...LOL.. something always comes up.

That's the best news I've gotten all day, I thought we lose an hour. I'm sucking at this challenge, I'm like 440 in for March.

Ugh, I've wasted so much time, loves. I'll have to add a few more hours to my days off haha. Opps. I'm cracking the whip from here on out though.

Hiya everyone!
I normally also lurk on this forum, and i thought i change that as soon as i read this thread the day it got started. cause first, i wanted to say, march should be a good month like the starter (sorry,forgot your name babes, and i am not used to post things...pfff)of this topic said, one of her best months, because all credit bills from christmas are paid now... So yes, i am also in for it, i can not say how my goals are, but i am working my butt off this month, and just wanted to say to all of you, make a lot of money! And thanks SW for existing!

Ugh I am doing SO BADLY with hours on cam! I have to catch up hardcore tomorrow and Friday. Oops. However, I am doing really well on the clips, I am so pleased with how far ahead I have gotten and the quality ideas I am coming up with. Surprised myself!

Smurfette
03-04-2015, 03:19 PM
Terrible effort so far! I want to blame it on my sick kid, but truthfully it's mostly due to my own laziness... I've had a hard time getting it together lately. That's gonna change, though. I'm gonna make March my BITCH whether it likes it or not.

Issabelle
03-04-2015, 03:30 PM
I'm at just about 22 hours for the month so far. I'm going to take a quick nap and then cam tonight. Vanilla work was rough but fruitful money wise, so a quick break and possibly ordering a pizza wouldn't be bad...

I'm thinking this week will end up at ~50 hours. I'm scheduled to work about 5 hours Saturday night at my vanilla job and then I'll be camming 8+ hours per day Thursday and Friday plus a 4+ hour shift Saturday morning.

LOL I just realized I need to do 32 hours in the next 4 days to hit 40 hours this week. It's my own damned fault! Better go to sleep so I can get up bright and early. Looks like I don't get Saturday off after all :P

I am going through a ton of upheaval right now, so I am lowering my hours, and also forgoing my clip goals :( it sucks but it is what it is. My new goal is 200hrs for the month and a focus on stuff like sexting etc.

Staples
03-05-2015, 02:31 AM
Tonight was supposed to be my night off but I didn't make my money goal last night (I didn't make anything actually it was that fucking dead) so I decided to hop on for a few hours tonight. I've already hit my goal and am close to doubling it so I'm glad I didn't take the night off.

My clip goals are not going so well either. I need to re-think my strategy a bit.

^^ Yea I've been hit with a sudden need to move from my current apt, so I am not settled at all in terms of camming etc, so I am just putting in the cam hours as and where I can basically.

MessyChick
03-05-2015, 05:56 AM
I'm not doing amazing this week, but I have limited hours every other week due to having the kids so next week I have more cam time. :)

This may help some of you to get through the hours. I've decided to help motivate myself even more by coming up with an hourly goal chart for the things that I want/need.

For example: If I want a new 60" flat screen TV I calculate my lowest hourly combined (phone, cam, sexting, etc) and divide it by how much the item will cost.

So, I believe my lowest would be $25 an hour and the TV costs $720. So that means I dedicate 28.8 hours towards that goal so I always have something to hustle for. It's also like a competition because if I have a higher hourly or a awesome day on cam, I almost compete with myself so I update it. (ex: It took me only 20 hours to purchase the TV) Of course bills come first, I have some items at 120 hours on my list haha. I'm going to test it out and see how I fare.

Today's been... a challenge.

4 hours, 9% in paid, lots of glitches and lots of idiots. If tomorrow doesn't improve, I'm defecting to AW for a while.

I'm just shy of 30 hours as of right now. Not great, not awful. I'm looking at a 10 hour day tomorrow between my vanilla gig and cam, so that'll put me at my low goal of 40 hours per week. I'm approaching the $1000 mark for the week, so here's to hoping I break it before cut off tomorrow!

SimoneGray
03-07-2015, 05:32 AM
My hours are looking awful as well. truly. But, at least I will have a full day tomorrow to work and then next week its on.

Issabelle
03-07-2015, 03:19 PM
F U CHARTER! My internet has been out ALL day! It just came back on five minutes ago and I have to go to my vanilla job in like an hour and a half. Ugh...

Well, this week my hours are gonna be like 35 unfortunately. I can make up for it the rest of the month though.

Keep on camming, keep on camming, camming, camming.

Well I only made 2 clips and put in 16 hours so far this week on SM, but next week will be better since my roommate is officially moving to the day shift and going from part time to full time work! So now I will have more time to do 40 hours a week!!!! I also decided to revamp my NF pages it took me like 3 hours to do it since I'm just learning html lol but I'm happy to have another egg in the basket!! I may not be reaching all my goals yet but I will keep trying till I get there.....

IvyAdams
03-07-2015, 05:28 PM
Made 3 new clips this past week, launched my website (which got 3 members in the first 2 days, so I'm super happy already) and hit my low goal for the week. Now if I could just get the whole "working 40 hours" thing down :)

Staples
03-07-2015, 11:34 PM
Woohoo my first week of March Madness is complete! I'm behind by about 10 hours but I still managed to put in 60 hours of time on cam. I shot 6 photo sets and 4 videos. I'm way behind on videos but I made a LOT of money this week. The madness is paying off ladies!

I keep meaning to make a skype group for those of us on skype but I keep forgetting. I'll work on that this week.

Hope everyone is doing well. Keep working hard ladies the money is out there waiting for us!

Week 1 results:

Hours: 15.5/90
Clips: 1/10
Stories: 0.5/4

Financially, I've had a couple of awesome days, a couple of so-so days and one fucking abysmal day, but overall I've beat my low goal.

Onwards to Week 2!

Alright ladies I'm in super late but better late then never. I'm aiming small but its big in this house lol. 30+ hours a week. Clips daily for domme store and 3 clips weekly for vanilla store.

03-08-2015, 12:14 PM
How do you ladies do well with clips? I feel like I have a ton of clips out there that I have sold successfully the first time I made them, however, I have trouble reselling them. Tips would be appreciated. :)

New week finally. Last week was pure lazinesss I have sooo much to catch up on still but it's not too late! This week is supposed to be a 60 hour work week but I may need to add in more.

I don't know how you guys cam for that long every day! That's seriously incredible! I've been doing this for a year and I can only get up to six hours a night.
I want to take a night where I get off cam and film film film, so I can get 3-4 new clips each week on clipvia, which I haven't seen much talk of on here but it's the only clip selling site I use and I LOOOOOOVE it! My clips have been selling super well lately, like I've been making minimum $40 each day from my sales and I'm not even doing anything but just reblogging my ads on tumblr, and I raised the prices by a couple bucks a video yet they've been selling like crazy :D It's nice waking up to see I sold $50 worth of videos while sleeping!
I also want to keep camming every night, but stay on longer. I've been getting on around 8PDT and then make my high goal and get off around 10:30 because it starts getting super quiet (viewer count goes down, tips stop coming in, nobody wants to go pvt) but I want to start staying on until at least midnight. I used to be able to do that without an issue but my anxiety and PTSD have been pure hell lately so I wind up getting off if I'm not getting anything.
I'm also going to raise my low and high goals and establish a weekly goal to work towards too, and to give myself a break! I keep pushing myself to the point that I get frazzled if my viewer count is lower than 20 (I don't start getting excited until I hit like 40) but my husband noticed last night after I told him I had like six viewers that it takes like 15 minutes for MFC to put me on the front page to let people know I'm online.
We're saving up to move back to Portland and even though he's promised a new job this month that pays a lot more than his current one, I'm not counting on it so I need to bust my ass to get all expenses covered from the deposit to the legal stuff like notice of relocation to the actual moving costs. Whenever I'm bummed on cam I go apartment hunting and remind myself what I'm working for :dreams:

SimoneGray
03-08-2015, 01:49 PM
I need to do at least 30hrs this week. Things are a bit more stable now since I have a dedicated camming space, but I need to pay the deposit to secure my new house at some point between this week and next week and its quite steep so as soon as I have covered the essentials, all my hours on cam will be for that.

I've been ragingly ill since Friday, still feel awful today, going to try to get some more sleep and maybe feel well enough to do some hours tomorrow. My rent is due mid-month, and I have enough for that and bills, I'm disappointed that this is happening but just got to focus on getting better and then picking up where I left off. Good luck ladies!
