    Default Do you do better when you're drunk?

    Maybe this is a weird question, but do you find you make more money on cam when you've been drinking?

    Okay, my story is I am an alcoholic but I'm functional (had to go to rehab back in 2010, it sucked, whatevs). Because I drink so much I have a REALLY high tolerance. I can drink a 40 of malt liquor and only get a slight buzz. I never really drank on cam before but a couple of nights ago I really wanted a drink. My schedule is so tight that I didn't have time to relax with a drink on my down time (I have no down time) so I called "happy hour" and drank a 40 on cam. Guys loved hanging out with me and tipped tons to watch me chug, I made the most I had on that site up to that point without really trying. Last night I decided to try it again and see if it was just a fluke, so I got a 40, hopped on cam, and did my thing. Oh my goodness, these guys were making it RAIN, even after I reached my goal guys were just tipping and tipping and tipping. I mean, the tips kept flowing, I was shocked! I had the best day ever, made the most I've ever made on there, and ended up surpassing my daily goal just in that one shift.

    Maybe I'm a little superstitious but I have this feeling that the past two nights have been great because of the booze and I don't want to jinx myself by not drinking. I know it's silly but adding a 40 to my show is the only thing that's changed and I am making much more than I used to. It's only been two days so it is probably a coincidence, but I don't want to take chances and mess up my mojo

    So do any of you find you do better when you're drinking, or am I just being crazy?

    guys love tipping for shots... personally i stick to energy drinks though =p
    but your scenario is def believable.

    maybe do it as a weekly or monthly thing or something, so that it doesnt loose its momentum or 'special happy hour' feel.
    i can't let myself encourage you to drink though :x its so bad for you in the long run on a regular basis
    take care of yourself first, money is not worth starting a bad habit,.. not to sound like a parent or anything >.< 0.02

    The alcohol probably has something to do with it, booze makes it easier to be cheerful and flirty and have patience with the stupidity that exists in a free chat room. Please remember that the feeling doesn't last, however, and that goes triple for someone who has had alcohol problems in the past. You know this. Persistent alcohol use results in very different emotional/psychological effects than does an occasional night of drinking. From what I've seen, chicas who chronically drink in order to work become train wrecks very quickly.

    If you've had issues in the past, stay the fuck away from booze, seriously. Even if you hadn't, it's dangerous to get into a habit of relying on alcohol for work. Habits can form through chronic usage even without a strong underlying predisposition to alcoholism. Not everyone who drinks frequently will become an alcoholic, but those that do won't realize it until after they've developed a psychological and/or physical dependency. In your case you know you have problems handling alcohol, please don't think this time around will be any different.

    One last drawback to using alcohol frequently at work (and I mean more than one or two drinks over a span of a few hours a few times a week) is that it prevents us from consciously analyzing which techniques bring in money vs. those that don't. To thrive in this business over the long term we need to know what works and what doesn't, and to adjust our game as circumstances change. Alcohol destroys that process.

    In the short term, alcohol use can increase earnings, but over time your earnings will drop, you will lose paying customers and you will have no idea why. You'll be stuck with the habit but you'll have lost the $$$$ that was the entire reason you started drinking in the first place.

    If guys love seeing you drink, fill a vodka bottle with water and go crazy. They won't be able to tell

    Having a couple shots or glasses of wine before I get on helps me relax and be more fun and flirty. But too much and I just get sleepy and demotivated lol

    I agree with whoever said to make this a once in awhile "happy hour special" thing. If you do it every night, guys might eventually get bored of it... either that, or your new online persona will just be the "drunk camgirl" which could attract the wrong type of customers. Plus, especially if you know you already have problems with alcohol, adding the reasoning that it makes you $$$ to the list of things you like about booze will just make you that much more dependent on it.
    Don't try to win over the haters. You are not the Jerk Whisperer.

    Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.

    it doesn't make a difference fore me. I'm naturally crazy so sometimes I feel like do to better when I drink bc drinking calms me down and makes me normal. I've had some really great days drunk and some pretty bad ones too. lol but it can be bad to get drunk on cam. One time I had a major melt down on mfc. I went on a huge rant it was out of control. I was mad bc they weren't tipping me. First and foremost make sure you take care of your self. That you're healthy.

    I found that having a drink or two through the night to maintain a slight happy right-before-buzz turned the night from "work" to "relaxing and hanging out w/'my guys' (regs I like) and then getting paid to do shows when they happen". It didn't make a change in my money except that I was more interested in getting on cam so I worked more often.

    BUT THEN

    I gained 20 lbs.

    Because I was taking in a butt ton of extra calories a day and not doing anything special to work them off. I'd much rather sleep in an extra hour than get up early enough to jog two extra drinks and accompanying snacks per night off so I had to stop. I work out enough already. Not doing it more than this.

    I do awful when I drink. Hence I don't do before or during a shift. Guys get VERY comfortable when they get it in their head that I'm just there to "chill" and I end up making diddly squat.

    Also, I'm an emotional drunk. Last time I did drank on cam, after I logged off, I was a crying blubbering mess, mainly over nothing. Alcohol exasperates my neurosis.

    Not really. Maybe a little buzzed, but it doesn't make a difference either way. Drinking a little (like 1/2 glass) helped when I first started camming because I was nervous as frak.

    I tend to have a drink or two - helps me relax and keep myself bubbly...but I try not to get drunk. Actually, I try not to get drunk, period. I hate losing control, I hate feeling crappy the next day and not being able to get all the work done that I want.

    And like Isobel said, its a lot of extra calories to try and burn off...urgh!

    I'll do that too, on occasion - drink water from a vodka bottle, etc. Its a great idea if you have fans that like the "drunk camgirl" thing.

    I take tips for "shots" (water). Also if I drink a whole bottle of "wine" (kool aid in the bottle) in a show I make good money.

    This is something strippers have been asking for ages. When you first start and you are pretty much still at the "smile and hope they keep paying" point, it seems like it helps. After awhile though, when you get serious and start learning sales and psychology, it's much easier to work sober. It's not a party, it's work; we just got to make it look like a party....
    Yes, I'm real.

    I make better $$ both stripping and camming (especially) when drinking.

    This does not mean I always do or should but ... if we're telling the truth ... LOL. That is the truth. I feel more motivated, sexy, patient and flirty.

    Only cammed drunk once, and thats coz a guy emailed me wanting a show who I knew would stay in private for his roleplay for an hour. Which he did. Got through it counting the minutes/£s! £150 after deductions and tax, well worth trying not to throw up. ;-)

    Tipsy or merry is another thing. I love to have a 'relaxant'. However, I have cut down majorly as the drink was really not helping with my weight!

    Default Re: Do you do better when you're drunk?

    Wow, it's kind of crazy to hear how many of us have tried incorporating alcohol (real or not) into our shows. It definitely says a lot about modern culture and what's accepted (cute drunk girl a guy can "easily take advantage of").

    I used to drink to the point of blacking out every single day for years. I was able to hold down a regular sales job at a popular weight loss company, I made good money and was even offered a promotion before I moved West, but alocohol was my #1 priority. Now with camming it's surprising that I'm actually not drinking as much as I used to, even though I "could" because I don't have a boss lording over me, I don't have a commute to think about, and I don't have a set schedule that I Must adhere to or risk being fired.

    I think counting this week, I've only drank on cam maybe 5 times in the past 2 years. Sometimes I'd really want a drink and I'd indulge before my shift, but then I'd get super sleepy and just forget about camming in favor of a nap so of course I wouldn't make any money that way. The two nights this week that I drank on cam I only drank to the point of getting a buzz, not pass out drunk, so I made sure that I had the energy and competence to reach my goal.

    I don't want to seem like the "drunk girl" on cam because that routine gets old. I think my custies liked it because they never see me just grab a drink and unwind with them. I agree that if you do it too much it can lose the "magic." I'm going to take your suggestions and only drink on cam once every week or two.

    I also think that in my case, drinking Does put me in a better mood- depending on what I'm drinking. It's interesting that someone mentioned vodka- I get absolutely fucking suicidal when I drink vodka. Rum makes my back sore, and vodka makes me want to kill myself, but as long as I stick with whiskey or malt liquor I feel good and happy, which is clearly the better choice for me. If I drink "happy" drinks when I'm on cam, personally, I am able to maneuver around the super douches without coming off as a bitch, and I know that in and of itself is helping me do better on cam. We all know that demanding freebie hunters and outright assholes can affect your mood, other guys pick up on this mood shift, and they may be less likley to spend on you when they see you're just complaining and not going out of your way to be a sex kitten. When I'm drinking the stupid comments from non-paying members just roll off my back, which may be one of the reasons why I'm doing better; I'm able to dwell on the sexy, not the shit. Now I'm thinking that I should probably have a beer or two before every shift just to unwind.

    Disclaimer: I only think this would work on certain sites. I think if I tried this on my morning site the guys would get a little too comfortable; they'd see my relaxed attitide and think we can just hang out "as friends" without feeling the need to compensate me for my time. Ugh, no. Don't you have enough manners to buy a girl a drink? Okay, then, so tip my ass! Lol.

    Long story short, I think I will indulge in a little pre-gaming when I feel the need to, drink on cam a handful of times a month so my custies feel like we can "party" (and of course, when THEY get drunk they're more likely to spend), but I won't push the drunk angle unless we're doing a happy hour show because I don't want these guys to think of me as sloppy.

    P.S. I wrote this entire post before 8am after I just finished half a 40 of Steel Reserve. And also, Loveshooks, thank you, Thank you, Thank You for giving me a dose of tough love, I truly appreciate the concern you've shown for me

    Drinking a few glasses relaxes me. I see it as a reward. But to be totally pissed or drunk as you say is a no no for me. Tipsy perhaps but thats as far as I go. Don't wanna be so drunk I don't know what I'm doing making an ass of myself on cam and the neighbours hearing me.
