300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
I'm setting myself a very ambitious goal for March because I need to make sure I have extra money for an event deposit. I need to make $700 more than I normally make. Instead of setting a specific money goal I'm setting a goal of 300 hours on cam in the month of March. That comes out to just under 10 hours a day. Since I usually do one or two 12-14 hour days a week I figure I will be able to take at least one day off during the month to refresh myself, maybe even two. I'm going to post my progress here when March starts. I have a Vacation planned at the end of Feb so I'll be able to rest up and feel great for a crazy cam-a-thon. I'm spending the next week doing my normal camming and planning to bust out 20 photosets and 5-10 videos so I have enough content to keep my pay site running but won't need to focus on making content during March. My goal is to focus solely on camming.
I hope Im not being too crazy or ambitious. It's March Madness for sure! If anyone else wants to set a crazy March goal tell us about it here! Maybe we can keep ourselves motivated throughout the month.

Oh yeah, I normally make about $1200 working between 150 and 180 hours a month. Even though I only need an additional $700 I'm hoping to double what I normally make. I'm not setting it as a goal (I have a monthly goal board I write things down on) but that's what I have in mind at least.

Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
I have to get surgery in March so I'm not sure how many days I'll need off, so I'll go for 200 hours Lol
I seriously need to make more money!

Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
So I'm really curious, could you post your math on this?
Something doesn't add up.

Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
There are 31 days in the month of march 10x31=310 so if I do 10 hours a day all but one day I can take a day off. If I have several 12-14 hour shifts in the month I can afford to take a second day off.

Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
i am curious of the math too. i am trying to figure it out here for myself and see if it is doable for me.
Edit : aaah just saw you posted the math . ok i get it now. Don't know if i could do 300 but perhaps 200 either way i need a challenge and want to make some money!

Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
I told my boyfriend and he says we are all nuts hahaha

Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
Yeah, don't think you have to do my challenge... Just come up with a crazy challenge of your own kind of a March Madness thing. I'm interested to see what kind of crazy things people come up with.
-
Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
I'm up for that challenge

Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
Wow, those hours are just insane to me... more power to you if you can manage that! My own "March Madness" would be something more like 6hrs/day x 5 days a week. That's a pretty intense schedule for ME personally.. lol. I'm gonna do it though!

Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
How do you entertain yourself for 10 hour shifts? Not just for Staples but anyone who pulls long shifts? Assuming your not in privates the entire time. I am extremely curious. Is there tv nearby? An ebook? I can't do anymore than 2 hours of free chat at a time. If the money isn't there I can't wait for it. Especially if the room isn't talking to me. I tweet and blog. Sometimes I edit clips on a second laptop but then I get bored and stop engaging the guys in chat. I see the same women everyday all day sitting in free chat. LMAO What are they doing?

Look at other sites on a different tab, daydream, lots of short breaks and honestly its been so dead lately its been really hard for me to want to pull a long shift so I haven't been but that will change this week.

Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
Oh, I was actually planning on doing this myself starting tomorrow, I have a few things I need to save up for.

Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
I don't know if I am able to do 300 hours, but I am in for EXTRAAAA hours. I need a lot of time off in April, because in the laws from the Netherlands will come and stay at my home for 3 weeks. :(

Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
12-14 hour shifts? HOW? 4 hours is enough for me to start seriously considering selling my soul for some downtime. :P
I've never really considered leaving my room unattended, e.g. by browsing other sites while I'm on cam. Maybe I'll give it a shot. I think even a 150-hour goal would be ambitious for me!

Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
On days when I know it's going to be a camathon, i.e. 9-12 hrs, or when it gets slow, i put my big headphones on which are plugged into my t.v. next to me.
I've only had one smartass (who never buys prvts.), ask me what the headphones are for. i told him their used to tune him out! then i blocked him!
I can't ,and won't cam for that long anymore, because it makes it impossible to cam for the next 2 days. If I do go on, I'm so burnt out that i can barely even speak.

There have been times that its slow and i wanted to log off and then 15/20 min later im in an hour private. There is a huge benefit to pushing through the boredom.
I check and respond to my messages ( I get like 50 a day) and play Simpsons tapped out. I only do things that dont keep me from engaging the room, once I stop engaging I stop making money

I feel you. My mother in law just left. She was here for 3 weeks as well. Fortunately, it went by fast! Hope it does for you too.

Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
Maybe we should do a "March Madness Lite" of 150 hrs for the lazy set (myself included). :)

Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
i take lil breaks here and there to alleviate my boredom. or i just listen to crazy music and sing along..badly i'm sure but it helps. one of the sites i work on doesn't have free chat thank god so i can sit back watch some horror films and wait for privates but in free chat it feels like a horror movie all in itself!
Night of the living freeloaders!
Killer save a ho's from outer space!
The creature from mom's basement!
Invasion of the Timewasters!
Valley of the trolls!
The cock picture that wouldn't die!
Rocky Horror Gold Show!
all coming to a chat room near you!

Re: 300 hours in March (aka March Madness)
I don't know if I could do 10 hour days, but this thread has motivated me to try to stay on cam more. the most I've done is 4-5 hrs a day. It's hard for me to stay on too, if I'm not getting guys in my room; or if they aren't talking to me. I hate when they sit and stare at me forever LOL and don't say a word.
