Revamping my cam persona?
I started camming a little over a year ago on naked.com. I did okay on there for a couple months, but got a regular job because my camming money was inconsistent. Last month I decided that I wanted to go back to camming, and signed up for MFC and Streamate. I just quit my retail job last week and am trying to really put some effort into camming and actually treat it like a job. So far, I've only spent about an hour on each site.
Whenever I've cammed before, I've used the stereotypical "cute horny college girl" persona. But my real personality is much more "alternative" - although I don't have tattoos and don't look really alt, I'd like to be able to be myself on cam. I think the guys can tell that I'm being fake and it's hurting my money because I can't really connect with them. I was afraid that being alt would hurt my money, but I see a lot of girls on MFC that aren't the sterotypical Barbie who seem to do really well.
I've been using the name that I used when I was dancing, and I don't think it really fits me. I feel like my cam persona is easily forgettable and I'm not bringing anything special to the table. My face and body are pretty average, and I know I need to step my game up and improve my looks and show more personality.
At the end of this week, I'm going to revamp my camming space and decorate it to show more of my personality. I'm thinking about deleting my cam profiles and starting over with a new name and a new look. Is this a bad idea? My cam score on MFC is 837 so I'm wondering if I would benefit from a totally fresh start, or if I should stick it out.
I would love any input from you ladies! :)

LuxDahl - Thanks so much! I'm very glad it's been working out for you and I hope switching things up will be a good decision for me too :)
Re: Revamping my cam persona?
I have changed several times until I found that being myself works best. I am funny, slightly rude, a bit bitchy, and I smile all the time... That is who I am on a daily basis.
Also I play the music I like not the Britney spears or commercial b.s. a lot of host play to make the guest feel good because if they like who you are and feel the "real" coming from you you will make a good living like I do off of this.
