How to make a room exciting without giving anything away for free?
As everyone knows, I quit dancing to start camming a few months ago, and I'm hitting a bit of a creative block! I'm on SM right now, and want to get my game down pat before I go back on MFC - I started out there, and TANKED because I had no idea what I was doing (oops!) so my camscore is now re-set (I think) and I don't want it to happen again...
The thing that I'm kinda stuck on is how to make my room seem super-happy-fun-times-wacky-inflatable-arm-flailing-tube-man-amazing WITHOUT having the built up regs to play games, and without doing stuff for free. I want to make real money at this, so I don't want to just sit there and look bored (obviously), but its really hard to play a game if you have a room full of people who are just popping in and out and not saying anything (not to mention that unlike MFC, SM clientele don't really do much of the tipping/game playing stuff). I've tried playing card-draws for flashes, tips for flashes or teases, etc, but they just aren't biting!! More complicated games that build up to a show are pretty much confined to MFC.
I'm thinking about doing some dancing around and acting silly, teasing type stuff, but I know that girls have built up niches to get paid for this, and I don't want to join the ranks of the girls that are giving it away for free and making it harder on the rest of us to get paid!
I've tried doing crosswords, and even doing some drawing that I have to do for work (tattooing) but then it gets hard to engage the guys because, well, I'm doing stuff!
So I'm desperately trying to come up with ideas to get a really great high energy in my room, and I'm drawing a blank. Help!! Tonight I'm thinking of just talking away like a bit of a crazy person who has had one too many red bull, but I'd love any advice from you guys...

Its all about personality. Men seem to like when you act drunk or you're hilarious. It really is a catch 22 though. You just have to get lucky right off the bat.

There are some days that I am a bit feisty and they seem to love it. But most days I am usually the nice girl - you know the one that doesn't boot for just hanging out, hell they give me someone to talk to so I'm not bored to tears. But I am a talker, and now realize that I think I am talking too much and they get their rocks off on the free stuff others are doing and then just come in to chat with me.
Re: How to make a room exciting without giving anything away for free?
I don't even have a good answer for it. I guess it just depends on the men who are in the room. Everyday is different so there is no pattern to it. Wish it was though. I am still learning myself, but I do wish u luck and I hope u find what will work for you :-)

sod them. when my room gets dull i just ignore them and do my own thing.... washing dishes, reading a book (out loud) tidying my room. weeding the garden ect.... they seem 2 like it
Re: How to make a room exciting without giving anything away for free?
LOL what is up with the clientele on SM?? they have been getting worse lately! Even my once chatty regs now just park in free chat and STARE without saying a word, or they come and go before I can even say HELLO:(
SM has always been like this for me! I do not kick and ban people unless they are assholes or repeated beggers. On other sites, I would have a roomfull of chatty men and regulars who will stick around to chat and even help promote your show. I like to have a nice chat/hustle, I will chat...then hustle...ten chat...then hustle... It seems if you just stick with shooting the shit, they will all just sit in ur room and NOT bother to take you private. If you are too heavy on the hustle, you are a gold digging whore in their opinion. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. SIGHHHH!
I am having the same problem. It seems when I am actually doing SOMETHING, I do get more traffic but that doesnt mean more shows! Things I do include: sexy dancin/yoga, showing off outfits, etc. I never get NUDE in free chat but as you said and I agree: SM doesn't really have the tipping TYPE of audience, it is pulling teeth even to get them to join gold shows OR let alone tip for a flash or preview.
It has been a difficult time for me on SM lately. When I signed up with SM I did not sign up to be on a "tipping" site. I am not ready to transition to this type of site, nor do I want to be on one. Unfortunately it seems that all of them are heading this route :-\
There really is no answer, but one thing is clear, it is the nature of SM. There is nothing you can do. I do know this, when SM starts getting on my nervs, IT REALLY HELPS to have those back up sites.

Thanks guys - I really think that tonight I am going to go on and dance around a little, talk randomly, giggle a whole lot and basically act like super-hyper-happy-brain-dead-slut-barbie! We'll see if it works better than trying to engage in actual conversation....
I think its been really hard for me to transition from talking to a single guy and really engaging him personally to trying to talk to an entire room...
BUT... I WILL GET THIS!!! I am utterly, totally determined to think carefully about what I am doing, try loads of different things, and get this down. I am so grateful to everyone on here for all the great advice, and as soon as I figure out something that works, I'll be letting you all know!!!

LMAOSFH I always get sidetracked, even with my own thoughts.
Forgot to add, DO NOT WEAR YOURSELF OUT trying to keep up some bullshit act.
There are days I will dance my ass off, do yoga until I am blue in the face and sit in the shower until I am one giant prune, and still have nothing to show for it but being sore and stressed out. Then the next day I will log on half dead, stil in bed and make my goal in less then two hours. Do not overdo it trying to entertain your free chat members. Focus more on your private chats and tippers.

OMG That's awesome. Love it :D
Re: How to make a room exciting without giving anything away for free?
Apparently just talking about it made me get my ass in gear and work harder (AWESOME..thanks ladies!!)
So tonight I decided that rather than talking, I'd put on 80's hair metal and dance around like a fool, and giggle a lot. I made as much in TWO hours tonight as I did in SIX hours on Tuesday. Go figure....
SO it looks like dancing around like a moron works....I'm gonna try it some more on my next shift...but I'm not sure I can keep it up for extended periods...I swear I just burn hundreds of calories! (Another positive, I guess...lol!)
