Re: Tips to bank on cam ;)
My biggest piece of advice: Don't stress just have fun!
Re: Tips to bank on cam ;)
Re: Tips to bank on cam ;)
1. Be Persistent. No matter how bad your day (or week) is going.
2. Treat it like a job. Not a hobby
3. Be who you are. I don't care how many people are in ______'s room because she's so nice, such a bitch, bubbly, looks like the girl next door, is so pretty, etc, etc. None of that will work for you if that's not who you are.
Re: Tips to bank on cam ;)
Don't be quick to kick/ban everyone. I made that mistake until recently. This is a true story : I had one guy who told me once that he would take me to pvt when he got the money. I never kicked or ban him cause he was too sweet. He always complimented me and sometimes hung out in my chat for 2-3 hours at a time. I was always nice to him. If my room was dead we would chat some. If my room was busy I ignored him, but he was always in and out not saying anything. I always greeted him on a first name basis when he popped in. After 4 months, he never took me to private. I didn't care really. I have a few like that. Suddenly he started taking me to 1 hour block chats (and runs OVER that time always) once a week. Sometimes twice a week if he could. Over half of that is just cam2cam general chat. He became one of my regulars. Come to find out, he was laid off from work during that time and that's how he started spending time on the site. He was interested but honestly didn't have the money at the time. The more time he spent there and felt welcomed, the more it paid off for me later.
Be nice to the sweetheart cheap asses. You never know when they will get back on their feet again. Many men like that with time on their hands are there for a reason.. laid off, temporary depression, major surgery, etc. You never know. When they get back on top of their financial game, they won't be going to the girls who ran them off.... they will be coming to you exclusively.

Re: Tips to bank on cam ;)
use the search function before posting redundant threads.
Re: Tips to bank on cam ;)
- Use the note feature (if you are on SM) or keep track of your spenders and sessions. If you are like me, and screennames mean nothing to you (maybe because we deal with so many people) you need to keep track of people's "real" names, likes, interests, cities etc. Nothing is so offputting as spending a long exclusive with someone, going through all your quirks, and then coming back and being asked "so what are you into?"
- On that note - personalize your service!! Make them feel special, different, important. Not just another wallet.
- Be consistent. Don't spend one day flashing and spinning for free, and then demand $5 for it the next day, then refuse to do it at all the next. Same with your stories - if you have told a guy you are in school, and he loves that, then you are talking to another guy about how you are a 40 year old bored housewife and the first guy comes in...uh oh! Lost custys
- Use your niche. Figure out who you are on cam, and what you are best at, and capitalize on it! Promote it, work with it.
- Don't do stuff you aren't sure of. If a guy asks you to do something, and you don't know what it is or how to do it, then DON'T. Its not worth the bad ratings or comments.
- Stick to a schedule. Otherwise - how will you build up regulars? And we all know - regulars = money.
I'm sure I'll think of some more...now, if only I could do everything that I know I should be...
Re: Tips to bank on cam ;)
Say hello those passing through your room. I have gotten several tips just from saying "hello ____". Sometimes (on MFC) they pass through. Many though will come back in the room and say hi and stay. A full room on there seems more inviting and you have a better chance at tips. My regulars think its cute that i say hi to everyone, and it works.

Nothing wrong with reviving a good inspirational topic once in a while. The "search function" only goes so far and can be laid to rest for a while. What good is a forum full of "Search Function" replies - on every single topic? This site is useless if it is full of those vague SF replies for every single topic. OP did not ask "What site are you banking on bb and what hours do you work bb and how much money bb". The typical search function worthy threads. Otherwise, As models we all grow and evolve in this industry, so let the forum grow and evolve for a change.
Re: Tips to bank on cam ;)
If you're in a bad mood, don't go on! You're going to be so grumpy at the end of the day, because you won't make NEARLY as much money as you would if you were in a good mood :/
Also, music :) Not just anything, but music that makes you happy and want to sing and dance. I spent a whole show once just lip-syncing/singing and "sexy" dancing to MJ! I got SO much money that day I couldn't believe it! :D
Basically, if you're not having fun, they're not having fun either. So just do what you want, and have fun for yourself!

THIS OMG THIS IS THE BEST ADVICE
or if I feel a bit fussy, I tuck myself in for a nap. I sometimes wake up energized and peppy and then bank! or I sometimes sleep for 14 hours. Whatever.
Re: Tips to bank on cam ;)
- Be patient. You are NOT going to suddenly wake up a week after starting somewhere new and be top tier. That level takes dedication and hard work. Engineer your success through marketing and being present, but understand that it still grows organically.

So true!
In ImLive private shows, when guys have that annoying "Under 2 minutes remaining" note on the screen immediately when entering private chat, I used to just disconnect them, because they'd usually be those 20-second peepers. But recently I told myself "You know what? I'm not gonna kick him out...let's see what happens." And what he did was quickly buy some more credits before his 2 minutes ran out. 8) That was so awesome, and I was relieved that I wasn't so quick to disconnect him. :P

I used to kind of think that way too when working on imlive. Funny cause over half the time, the men who come in only having 2 minutes left, purchase more credits :-)
Re: Tips to bank on cam ;)
Don't be afraid to mess up! Just go with the flow.
The other night I was doing a shower show and ended up falling mid-gasm into my bathtub. I didn't stop. Just kept going to have one of the most powerful funtimegushycunts I've ever had! At the end of my show I re-grouped in the free chat to have a fucking WALL of people tell me how awesome it was.
Laugh at yourself!
Did you fall? Did you totally flub on your math? Did you say, "Oh, I have no red heels, sorry!" When someone actually said 'I love red heads'? Laugh it off!
Don't do anything you don't want to do.
There is a place for everything, which leads me to...
Don't be afraid to try different websites!
I made the mistake of only trying one website and hated it. Then I tried another and liked it, but it wasn't keeping up with my expectations. Then I went to another one and my mind is just fucking blown.
And whatever you do, try to be yourself. I'm a spunky bi-polar mess of goofball sushi obsession, so...we do the best we can :)
Re: Tips to bank on cam ;)
Great ladies :), thanks for posting! Oh and about the search function thing yeah I totally get the searching for stuff to keep from being redundant but some stuff is totally old and out dated lol
Re: Tips to bank on cam ;)
I agree with Lusty. I had a premium on MFC the other day say, "Your responding to basics? BYE".
I was like wtf? Yeah I will talk to basics and sometimes guests, as long as they are nice. The minute a basic or guest says something stupid to me (which doesn't take that long), I silence them. But if they are being nice to me, I will not be rude back. Basics and guests are potential customers, and I don't want to lose out on them, or look like a token whore.
Just two weeks ago, I had someone go premium, and his first private session on MFC ever was with ME. That's how things should be done. Treat these guys good, because like Lusty says when they have the money they WILL spend on you.
Re: Tips to bank on cam ;)
I think the thing I struggle with the most is smiling. Im not a smiler. Customers are always telling me to smile & that makes me angry. I get bored really quickly with camming in free chat. I guess i need to work on that.

I do exactly what you do! I have gotten 3+ people to go premium once! I never even mute them. If they are being rude or mean, I yell at them, and make them feel stupid for even trying to insult me. Everyone seems to enjoy when I yell at the idiots. ;D

omg i know! lol people act like its a big deal when someone already asks something thats been asked before. its not a big deal, why waste your time to post "go search for it" when they can just simply ignore the post. plus it helps to keep the site active.::)
but always be fun, move around, talk,talk,talk ect. dont just sit down on your ass and wait for someone to take you pvt or tip. b/c its not gonna happen if you just sit on cam looking constipated, not sexy at all. i feel like if you just sit down and dont move around at all or talk it kinda makes it look like your gonna be really boring in a pvt and/or public show.

Anyways, if someone has advice on smiling for someone who is not a natural smiler, I would love to know. When I cammed, I was sooooo tired of hearing "smile bb" "what's wrong bb?" "You look bored bb" "u look sad bb." I've seen girls on SM who are near the top and never smile, and guys don't annoy them to smile.
If you really don't even care to smile, because it's the last thing you're thinking about, then you should just start moving around or something :) I smile when I'm having a good time, but if I'm not I'm moving around. Just moving my hips, or dancing a bit, or even just arching my back with my hands on the wall :P Anything to make the guys not notice I'm not in the mood to be smiling!
Re: Tips to bank on cam ;)
^ Thanks! :) Honestly, I never moved around a lot in free chat, but I'm going to give it a try so I don't look so bored. I feel like I have an ugly smile, and hearing "bb bb bb bb" doesn't put me in the mood to smile. I had a habit of just relying on guys thinking I'm pretty and taking me private, but I'm going to try to make my room a little more fun and see if my earnings increase. Thanks for the advice, girlie. :)

Of course! :) I hope it works out for you. I hate trying to be fun and exciting all the time, but on the site I use you HAVE to do free chat most of it, and it's not really a regular thing to get privates. So I just try to be something to watch, even though sometimes I literally have NO desire to do so :P Lol
