Phone sex operator questions
I have been camming on and off for 3 months now and I really enjoy it...but this month has been the worst for me. I am wanting to get a job so that I have a steady stream of income while I build up regulars in the camming world. So I found a phone sex company in my area, I have never done PSO before though I have always wanted to try it. I'm REALLY excited about it, but not sure what to expect. The company pays $8/hr or .45/min which ever is greater per shift....does this sound fishy to you (experienced PSO's ladies) ??? Since I haven't worked for a PSO company before I don't know what the pay should be or what the interview process will be like. Im just asking for a little insight before the interview.
Re: Phone sex operator questions
.45 per minute is not bad for a new pso. And I guess you're guaranteed one or the other, so that's really not too bad to begin with.
The interview process should be just like any other interview, they may ask you why you're interested in this line of work, experience, hours available and (maybe) your knowledge regarding fetishes. You talk to them in your normal everyday voice, and you should not be asked to "audition". (there's only one reputable company I know of where you "audition" but it's on tape and not talking to another live person.
Just be positive, upbeat and upfront about your knowledge (or lack thereof) of any questions asked.
Good luck!

I hope someone is able to chime in and help you out... I havnt done PSO work in so long I cant remember what its like to talk dirty lol! Also, Ive never worked for a PSO agency, I was always independent, and charged a lot more per min. I did think about joining an agency once, but the idea that I *had* to log in and out at certain times or for a certain amount of time made me feel stifled. I dont do well with schedules and restriction LoL
Im willing to bet though that so much has moved on from PSO work, that there arent nearly as many women in it as there was 5 years ago, and probably a more lucrative option than it was, back when it got oversaturated. Everyone has head to cam now it seems, but Im sure there are still plenty of guys who just want to talk or cant be at their computer for a show. Hrmm...I might have to look back into this myself here.
Re: Phone sex operator questions
Well I got a call back from the company today and the woman was very short with me....she said that in order to even apply for the position I will have to delete all of my webcam accounts. She said that the company has a no competition clause and that they will press criminal charges if I don't delete the accounts. Not a great first impression, I will look into PSO with a company online, if only adult work would hurry up and approve my ID. Thanks for responding ladies.
Re: Phone sex operator questions
That is nuts...how is cam even competition to PSO work?
Completely different markets! Yeah, she can take that attitude and shove it.
Hope you fine a more worthwhile company to work with.
Re: Phone sex operator questions
Same thing I was thinking! I emailed AW after 2 weeks of waiting around for approval, hopefully they get back to me soon.
Re: Phone sex operator questions
Probably because a cam model will usually get more clients based on the guy knowing she's a real model. Most phone sex only companies use fake pictures for their operators thus keeping the guy thinking he's talking to that specific girl in the pix. Also if you have a cam name that other know you by and use it there , you'll get guys dropping phone for a model that will bear all in cam. Phone sex is cheap so it's highly unlikely a guy will spend more money on a cam show than a few bucks for a phone call. Also to add that alot of guys have fantasies that cannot be acted out on most cam sites due to their illegal nature.
Re: Phone sex operator questions
The thing though is, most agency create a persona for you...and use fake photos as well. Even if they do not create the name and persona, they can just require you to use a completely different name. So there is nothing at all to connect phone work to cam work...and phone/cam are not competition. That really is a strange thing for the agency to say...
Re: Phone sex operator questions
That lady is insane. You are an independent contractor, and as such, she (or her company) would have no right to limit where and who you work with.
Re: Phone sex operator questions
Non-compete clauses suck. They can literally be so broad that you can't work with ANYONE else their particular genre (this case adult) for pay, and in some cases, for free. Look into "Suicide Girls vs Lithium Picnic," Suicide Girls was legendary for years for their ridiculous contract that included a crazy "non-compete" clause.
Re: Phone sex operator questions
There are plenty of legit pso companies that pay a little more (or less) than that and let you log in when you want, as long as you want, and still let you work for other companies. The smartest thing I could tell you is when you apply, don't tell them that you work for other companies and don't use the same material. Message me and I'll help you out with any pso questions that you may have. I've been a paid pso for over a year now, and I would sneak on pso lines as a kid for free so I'm pretty much a veteran. I also run my own PSO sites that I take all my calls for.
