So why are you going to work for a studio? Your original post is not clear at all. Why do you need a recruiter?
Let me check, I think that's Vanessa, not a studio, she's the bomb! Brb.
Ya that's Vanessa. She is Streamates official recruiter, going through her gets your paperwork done a BILLION times faster and she even canceled the 2 week payment hold back for me. She is the BOMB!
TG, Vanessa AWM works for Streamate, it's a newer division of SM, like payroll division, tech support, etc. She is model support and recruiting. But as it's a newer division not everyone knows about it yet. You are still signing up directly through SM but getting her to do your paperwork means you get approved super fast, your affiliate links and your code to stream video on your private website (if you have one) all from her in a package all wrapped up in a nice bow straight off the bat. She will cancel the 2week payment hold on your first payment too so yaaay for getting your first payment faster :D
Yes Vanessa is real good! she replies my messages on twitter right away!
Also you have your own streamate account. It's like dealing with human recourses. Instead of just dropping your paperwork off with a receptionist and someone getting around to it eventually, you are walking right into human recourses and dropping your paperwork onto the top of the pile. That's ALL. she doesn't take a penny. Its just her job with SM. Model paperwork, lol.
I plan on still using Vanessa when I sign up to daily pay. One has absolutely nothing to do with the other. Vanessa isn't a "service" like princessjenny. That's like considering tech support a special service.
I don't think you understand what I'm saying. Why is vanessa's service so special that forms are expedited with her and not streamate themselves. Why did streamate need this outisider? They couldn't do everything through their own site? The 3 week delay can be taken off if you simply write support. For me my forms were approved in 24 hours so I honestly don't see any reason for her "techy support". Do you understand what I am saying now? Maybe she caters to those outside the US... now that would make even more sense.
Oh my god. Ok ok I need you to understand this. Stop being paranoid for a second. She gets paid by STREAMATE.
If you walk into a store and a manager is working and a sales person is working and the sales person helps you pick a pair of shoes do you pay for the shies AND pay the sales person? NO. you just pay for the shoes, the company pats the sales person.
Vanessa WORKS FOR STREAMATE. She isn't some random independent contractor. She is not like PrincessJenny. If streamate was a company in an office building downtown Vanessa would be sitting behind a desk in one of their offices. Streamate created a new division in order to organize model paperwork and get the girls approved faster. So instead of the super long 10 day approval rate it's 2. They are trying to become more efficient.
I don't see how I am being paranoid. I got the part about her not being a studio/not taking a percentage and being like a human resource type support service. I am happy with pj's service and don't care for any studio. I am talking about the extra help streamate has hired and I'm just wondering why....

Again you did not get my point. I was not arguing with you. My point was that When I signed up for streamate I was paid weekly there was no delay and my forms were approved in 24 hours. You said the benefit to vanessa was that there was no delay but I found that there was no delay on my own when i signed up directly. I understand that she is NOT a studio. What I am saying is I don't see a need for her support services for those that reside in the us that have their forms approved within 24-48 hours and get paid weekly signing up on streamate.com. Do you get it now?Quote:

Streamate has divisions, customer service, payroll, model support, promotions, etc, like any company. Vanessa works in model support. But they have decided to make model support all big and pretty now to reach out and advertise, recruit girls and streamline the process. Ok? Is it all good? I can't think of any other way to explain this for everyone.
Edit: ok I get what you're trying to say. They say right on their site that approval can take up to 10 days and that there is usually a 2 week delay before first payment. We talk about it on the boards all the time. So maybe you lucked out. Because we know lots of girls on this site had to wait.
Anyway whether ppl feel the need to use her or not doesn't matter as she will probably have a hand on your paperwork at some part of the process as it all needs to go through her division.
nevermind. no point in continuing convo. 8)
what is this about streaming from your personal website? how does that work, what are the benifits and who do I contact?
also I was tweeted by streev.....which appears to be the exact same, why two different names? I asked this before and got no response
Whatevs.
Anyway OP, you will be fine if you sent her your paper work. She is a lovely woman and you are safe in her hands and that's all that really matters yeah?
I don't know about streev.
Yes, Vanessa will give you an HTML code that you can post on your website or blog so that when you are in free chat on streamate, ppl can see it streaming live on your personal website. And then can come join you on SM.
what is this about streaming from your personal website? how does that work, what are the benefits and who do I contact?
Okm, please read my previous post as it explains exactly how streaming works. Then you can contact Vanessa at AWM, pm me for her email.
Oh, sorry, if I was vague. The HTML code puts a box on your website/blog. So when u log onto steamate to work your free chat show can be seen on your website as well.
https://twitter.com/#!/search/streev check this out.....they followed me when I first signed with streamate, I checked it out and it IS sm??
I think Streev is one of their affiliates, there are LOTS with all different names but they all look like Streamate & Cammodels.
INTERESTING about Vanessa! Sounds like they're FINALLY getting some real model support, which is sorely needed, and crucial if they are going to continue being our bread & butter site. Question though - as I am already signed up with SM and don't want to make a new account, can I just email her questions and generally treat her like support? It seems like everyday I have one problem or another.....
If so, I will be contacting her asap, thanks Aria!!
