    Question Differences?

    OK, after four days of waiting for approval I am fiiiiinally ready to start streaming on SM, I'm pretty excited. I do not understand the difference between exclusive chat and premium. Which should rates be higher on? Also is a gold show the same as premium? From dabbling with MFC and F4F SM seems pretty different, which is hopefully a good thing. Just need a little guidance. Thanks!

    Search gold show threads for ALL the info you need on those - it can seem a little complicated at first. I also doubt that you will have gold shows enabled if you have just been approved, so I wouldn't worry about it.

    Premium - pay per minute chat where multiple people can pay to watch you.
    Exclusive - pay per minute chat where only ONE person can watch you.

    Most people use exclusive for very specific requests/fetish requests, or for "extras" like phone, cam2cam etc.
    Some people choose to set exclusive to a cheaper rate, because they prefer being one-on-one.
    However, some people dislike exclusive because you can theoretically earn more in private with multiple people watching, so they set their exclusive rates prohibitively high.
    The majority of girls will have private at a slightly lower rate than exclusive, but you can do whatever the heck you want, depending on your preference.

    I know that there are a few threads on pvt/exc differences and rates, and the search function is awesome. If you are having trouble, try different combinations of "rate" "pvt" "exc" "private" "exclusive" "what do you charge for" "what is the difference" etc etc. (make sure you are searching in camming connection only, and probably just thread titles to help narrow it down.)
    I take cash, debit or credit. I just don't take shit.

    Straight from Streamate's website (FAQ):

    HOW DO I DETERMINE MY PRICE PER MINUTE?

    The price you set is up to you. The minimum amount you can charge is $.99/minute and the maximum is $4.99/minute. You should take several factors into consideration when choosing your price per minute. Typically new performers will charge a lesser amount when starting to increase their popularity and grow their customer base. If you are performing as a couple or group you would typically charge a greater amount. You can choose to change your price per minute once every 24 hours.

    WHAT IS PRIVATE CHAT? (this is "Premier" chat)

    Private chat is when a user takes you private/paid (they appear in your PAID chat window) and are paying per minute to chat with you. Private/Paid chat is blocked from anyone still in the guest chat area. Only those paying your per minute rate are able to see you. Others can join Private/Paid chat, but they cannot see each other.

    WHAT IS EXCLUSIVE CHAT?

    Exclusive chat gives you the opportunity to be completely 1 on 1 in chat with your favorite members
    How It Works - You can select to have an optional "Exclusive Rate" in your account. Once you select an exclusive rate, members will have the ability to invite you to an exclusive chat just between the two of you. Only members can initiate exclusive chat with you, but you will get a choice to accept or reject the member's invitation. You can only continue into exclusive chat if you are currently performing in free chat. You cannot leave premium chat to be exclusive with a member.

    What You Should Know - This feature is optional. In order to activate the exclusive chat option, you must first select an exclusive rate. Generally, this rate is higher than your premium rate. To turn the feature off, simply select "currently disabled" from the drop down.

    Thanks, I read all of that on the site. I was mainly asking about the difference between premium and exclusive and what, exactly, a gold show is (which ManyRoses answered). The site is a little confusing because as they word it I never saw "premium" rates vs exclusive. I'm smart enough to read through everything, and generally, most of the sites are straight forward but SM's "definitions" are a bit confusing.
