Has anyone had a problem with the higher rates being applied? I only got one person in a premium but I went to check my earnings afterward and the rate was right but the total for the time was still at the old rate :/
Edit: nvm it got fixed!

A fellow SW'r was looking to bump this thread
bumpity bump bb



With that said... Not now, since it's is a little slow and I have to get my placement back from taking 8 months off, but I will be racing my rates from $5.99/$6.99 to who knows what...
With that said- I strongly encourage to up your rates and to give it a try for a week or so, (not for 2 hours!!!!!). Trust me when I say- customer base will change, privates will be longer and you will be making more for doing less... All you have to do is give it a try...
right now i charge 4.49/4.99. I was thinking of changing it to 5.99/6.99. But I'm a little worried guys won't want to pay that bc my boobs deflatedI have abs now though so maybe they won't mind the tradeoff. After I get a lift I want to go for 7.99/8.99 wishful thinking. Anyway I paid all of my bills so I will give it a try. Guys mainly care about my ass anyway so maybe they won't mind.

I was doing last week $4.99/$6.99.. and they wouldn't pick PRIVATE...so I raised it to $5.99/$6.99 and got a 3 in private at one point even though most still pick exclusive. Looking back, when I first started on SM doing exclusive for $3.99/$4.99, I had 50% nice guests and 50% who wanted to degrade me or asked me to do things I clearly say I don't, after the show started.

Just increased my last 30 clips by a $1. Sent a mass email and tweet. Its the last day of the month and Im trying to hit $1500. Sales were down this month. Lets see what happens? Next week I'm gonna add more stuff with a $2 increase. I'm sick of these guys trading my stuff on the net. So now I have to start charging them all as though they are buying for two people. Oh well Lalalalalaaaaa



Raised my rates and made my goal even faster today!![]()



I love the comment "work smarter, not harder"
I've only been on SM for about 4 weeks. When I started I was at $2.04/3.04. I changed it after 2 weeks to 2.99/3.99 with the same amount of privates/exclusives. I was still getting 'burnt out' after a couple of hours. Well... after banging myself at even 2.99/3.99 it started to take a toll. I got a yeast infection! I've never had one in my entire life. It was awful and I wasn't able to cam for a whole week, then I got the flu on top of that. I have absolutely no doubt that the infection was related to caming. I was being super careful and clean and always washed my toys after each session. But banging myself 90% of the time with a dildo really took its toll!
I did change to 3.99/4.99 the day before I got the infection. I still made the same as I did at the lower price, but with not as much work. I also changed it to where I will only use a particularly large dildo in exclusive, and no anal in privates anymore. I haven't had too much time to test it though, but that one day worked out good! Hopefully I can stay healthy, because having to take a week off of work every 4 weeks is not going to work out. I may even start doing Goldshows to give myself more of a "break"



There is nothing more important then your health!!!! And the higher the rate, the less banging you will do with the same income, just do not get discouraged when you hit slower patch and stick it out, do not lower the rate back!!! It is so so so worth it! And if you feel like you are still getting burned out at that price, increase it again...



You go girl!




OK, so I agree with raising rates, but I would kind of like to be systematic about it and collect some data. Once I get my schedule stabilized, I'm thinking about lowering my rates (but not any lower than 3.99/4.99) in order to raise them incrementally and just see what happens at different rates. Do you guys think that might be detrimental to me in the long run, though?

I haven't been able to test the 3.99/4.99 out. But I'm finally feeling better thank God, I will see how this next week goes. If I start to get burnt out again I may try raising prices a little more.
I raised my rates and added better pics so far so good. So far I made double what I usually make. Once I upgrade my self and my camming equipment I'm gonna go for 5.99/6.99 I can't wait.
Starting at $5.99/$6.99 this weekend. This BBW is finally going to start valuing herself more!
Im at 7.99/9.99 quite a long time.. Think about a year.... Its hard to pass the 9.99, I just dont dare too... Maybe after the march madness month



Wish we could get all BBWs to go with 5.99/6.99 to get a big Fuck You to all the guys who tell us we should value ourselves less because of our size. There is more of me, so they are going to pay more for me!
Charging more is actually an easier "hustle" I find. Once you start charging 6, 7, 8 $ a minute you never want to go back. You will likely have more downtime/time between shows, but you are hustling fewer guys and working less. If you charge enough, you can make an awesome hourly from just 10-15 mins of work per hour. And that's if it's really slow, if it's busy cha-ching!
It's the difference between trying to seduce 5 guys/hour into shows rather than 15 guys into shows. Way easier.
I am kicking myself for not raising my rates earlier!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't be like me lol.
I used to defend low prices but as I work more as a camgirl I realize that models really are short-changing themselves if they charge too little. This is a specialty service, the customer is getting live streaming porn. 6$ a minute isn't even that much...most guys only need 5 mins anyway, so it's like...$30 for live porn! That's an awesome deal.
Take a week where financial pressure is low and just TRY what Hayden outlined in the OP.

I did 5.99/6.99 the other day and had 2+ guys in pvt for about 8 minutes...I made much more in 90 minutes than what it usually takes me 2-2.5 hours to make. So far it's been worth it, but there will be slow days, no doubt.

There will always be slow days... Doesn't matter if one is at $2.99/min or $9.99/min... But... On a good, busy day it is SOOO much easier to make it all work...
Because of this thread I raised my rates on AW by 50p I realised I was selling myself cheap cheap cheap. Had one guy today and he was in private with me for an hour and a half and I beat my target. I earned £43 more than I woulda done yesterday! whoop. Maybe I will raise my pvt price even more in the future.
