    6.99/7.99 here, want to increase that to 8.99/9.99 by the end of the year.

    Sure it looks a lot per minute for the guys, but it isn’t a lot for me by the time I get it.

    $7.99/$8.99

    I have to wait for shows, but I usually don't mind. I rarely attract trolls & have only heard I'm too expensive a handful of times since having those rates (1 yr+). The members I attract are plenty respectful & tip on top.

    I did well at $8.99/$9.99 from July 2020 - Nov 2020 then dropped them back down due to a slump. Planning to go up again soon.

    Avg I've seen for pvt seems to be $5.99 & $6.99 for excl when I checked model's rates before raising.

    especially since they don’t tip and they try to bust a nut in a minute after doing a show I saw I made $25! I use to make $25 for one song and now a guy is busting his nut for the same...no!

    Oh, HI Buffy Flame!
    I started at the default of $2.50 or whatever it was, and had people complaining then too! Ha. Fuck, I was earning complete pennies then and working myself to the bone. Was clueless. My gold menu was cheap af too, that’s now increased and I probably get more tips now than I did when it was cheaper, likely because they don’t want to pay my ppm rate mind, but it suits me.

    On the topic of raising rates

    Honestly, anyone who has money won’t complain. It has to do with their lack mentality and entitlement. When my trainer raised his rates I said, “good for you.” I offer great service. People who want high quality experiences won’t complain about price. Only cheapskates. That doesn’t mean I’m not disappointed when I can’t afford something, but I don’t ever get pissy at someone for charging what they are worth. If anything the more money we women have to more we are empowered. When women win with money the world is a better place. Woman are more likely to spend their money in socially conscious ways. I’m taking a money mindset class next week. I hope it’ll boost my confidence to ask for gold and raise my rates.

    Id be shooting myself in the foot if I compared my rates to others.

    i like the cheaper guys. when i have low rates for private they load in. it averages more than my exclusive
    guys that went for the higher private price before (5.99-6.99) 90% of them go exclusive when I lower my private. its like they did not feel obligated to spend more?
    I go by my hourly rate


    I used my passport in the past. it expired so I used my DL
    I think it is adultwork that doesn't allow passports

    My exact same rates but flipped. They eat up my $6.99 EXL. clearly because it's cheaper. Also, they don't have to share and I feel they stay longer when it's 1 on 1. Of course I get the few IDGAF guys in my $9.99 pvt but then all the peepers try me so I go even slower. I know of a few ladies that have very high rates. Men will pay for anything if they have it. Plus they're dumb when they're horny so seduction for the win.

    I'm at 6.99 / 9.99 for pvt / exc. I was going to wait until I was skinny to raise them that much, but last year I said fuck it, I'm worth it. My hourly is at a place I'm very happy with. I'm tempted to raise them against next year but we'll see how it goes.

    I have my exclusive set at $9.99, but keep private at 4.99 because most of the time I'll have more than one member in there. I usually wind up making more doing privates vs. exclusive, and they're less intense and don't involve C2C! I've been thinking of dropping it even lower to see if I could consistently get a larger group going, except that I'm already at my limit for how low I'm willing to go if there's one member in the room only--I'd be awfully bitter if I wasn't getting multiples.

    Mine are at 7.99/10.99. They regularly tip me on top and I get multiple people in private sometimes. I get decent length shows in both too.

    I’m really happy with where they are now and I don’t see myself increasing them. I have to wait for shows sometimes but I don’t mind cause when I do get one, it’s usually worth it. I also get really tired easily when I do loads and loads of shows. I used to be more prone to burnout when my rates were around the 5.99/7.99 range. I was also working 3-4 sites at once then though which probably didn’t help.

    I've been on SM for 2 months now, and my rates are 3,64 for excl and 2,64 for pvt. I thought its too expensive, as sometimes I got complaints about it. "Reduce ur price and I go pvt" "Im looking for something cheaper" HAHA

    I've been having issues with widescreen for about 1 hour. Does anyone experience it? I've already rebooted my computer, but nothing..and the resolution has dropped to 960x720. Normally I stream in 1920x1080. I tried the stream settings, and the camera driver, but nothing works. Do you have any idea about the solution?

    All the time are you using logitech webcam? Open the controller make sure its selected, open the capture make sure you are set to "full HD", you might need to update? Sometimes logging in and out helps and turning off and restarting stream

    Yea I'm not really sure why that happens but I just make it a habit to open that program all the time now and it seems to do the trick. LOL Maybe there is a 720p default setting somewhere I missed
