    Default has anyone heard of converge mediaworks???

    this is the email i got from them a company called converge mediawork i got it after i applied to playboy live, not really expecting to get accepted. is ths site a studio or what?:

    "Although PlayboyLive is not accepting your application at this time, we would like to offer you another opportunity to make the same amount of money! Our camming studio that operates with one of the largest camming platforms is Converge Mediaworks. Converge is PlayboyLive’s exclusive content provider and offers the same exposure to our models. Webcamming is perfect for you if you have another part time job, you’re in school, or have little ones to look after at home. You’re required to work 20 hours per week but you’re in charge of your schedule so you can work around other commitments.Converge offers the best rates on the web and you can always earn extra cash by referring a hot friend or participating in incentives and weekly contests in which you can win up to $1,000. Below are the Rates we offer:


    Private rate 4.99 Per min: Model Pay= $2.50
    Spymode Rate 2.99 Per min: Model Pay= $1.50
    Premium Clip rate 9.99 Per: Model Pay= $5.00
    $1 tip and tip Private: Model Pay= $.50


    The great thing about working for Converge is that you can set your own rules and guidelines. If you’d like to stick to the glamour side, you may do nude camming only (think Playboy) but if you’re a little wilder and would like make more money, you may use toys and a hardcore model. The choice is completely up to you!"

    so it basically pays out 50 percent which isnt bad. i just wish i could find the site online and look at it. thats what makes no sense.

    ETA: i just checked out playboy live, i have no idea why i wasnt accepted now, unless its my large amount of tattoos. plenty of hot but not playboy quality girls there.

    That's odd. Did they tell you what site you would be on? Those figures look like what Naked offers sometimes, also when i went to the playboylive to check it out,
    the Model Login page on playboylive takes you to naked.com. what's up with that?

    The whole thing is weird!

    hahaha WELL looks like it is indeed naked.com that they route you to work on. they told me they would be happy to have me. so it has to be a studio. do they take more of a percent then naked does judging by those numbers? ive never worked there. how is it? also i wonder if its part of playboys studio if they gve you optimal placement?

    Is Playboy still paying hourly salary on your first 3 months?

    regarding playboy live, this thread is fairly recent, and the reviews are pretty grim

    I got the same e mail, a couple days after I applied for the naked.com affiliate program ( they never got back to me, I tried with my " recruiter" and no luck either.
    They can kiss my ass, their customer service has been pretty bad ( at least with me) lately so...
    And playboy live didn t accept me, they r the same company I think.

    Hey you girls, Gorgeous girls like you can do better than PlayBoy Live! Is their loss and blessing is disguise for you. The targeted clientele on PBL will get on your nerves in one week. They are there to just chit chat and be just "best friends". No real money there.
    You are all BEAUTIFUL!

    I went to apply to work on Hustler (Hustlerlive) and got basically the same answer. Check out the conversation. It looks like a good way to lure girls into thinking they will work for Hustler, when it reality, it's just Flirt4free! No chance of working on Hustlerlive (the Hustler site).

    Hello,

    I see that you have completed your application process at VS media as our new performer. You are now only steps away from broadcasting and making money.

    My name is Bojana Novak and I am your Broadcast manager with the VS Media network. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me, by e-mailing me back.

    I, also, see that you are only steps away from becoming active, and broadcasting. You do not want to miss out on some good earnings, so if there is anything you are having trouble with that’s preventing you from starting, let me know.

    Welcome to VS Media, and I am looking forward to working with you.

    Sincerely,
    Bojana
    Broadcasting Department

    I replied:

    Hello Bojana,

    Thanks for your e-mail. I do have a few questions, actually.

    Why do I have to go through an agency and how much am I giving tha
    agency then, out of my earnings? Currently, I work as an independent
    (no agency) and always have, since 1997. Excuse my naivete, but what
    exactly do you do for Hustlerlive?

    I see that the site Hustlerlive doesn't appear to have much traffic on
    its platform, according to Alexa, Compete and a few other sources. Are
    the girls' earnings reliant on them bringing in their own traffic?
    What commissions are offered, in this case?

    I have used the handle "amanda36c" online since 1997. No chance of
    obtaining that handle for use on Hustlerlive, is there?

    Thanks for your help.

    So she responded:

    Hello,

    You would be working directly with us, so you would not be going through
    an agent. As far as hustlerlive goes, we put the girls online for people
    to go and chat with. I am not sure why you think there was no traffic, I
    just went and there was at least 150 models on there. Out main site is
    actually flirt4free.com and that one has more traffic than any of our
    white labels.

    We do not allow numbers in stage names, so unfortunately we cannot allow
    amanda36c.

    Let me know if you have any other questions.

    Thanks,
    Bojana

    I responded:

    I went to search traffic stats for hustlerlive.com, which is the site
    that I thought I was signing up to work on. It was there that I
    clicked to sign up and got redirected to vs and I guess where all the
    confusion started to set in.

    That site shows so little traffic, I couldn't understand how they
    would even be in business! I'll have to check out flirt4free.com then.
    So, to get this straight, it wouldn't be hustlerlive I'd be working
    on, rather flirt4free, right?

    Thanks for your prompt response.

    She responded:

    Our main site is flirt4free, and then we have thousands of websites that
    broadcast parts of the main site. But, yes, looking at the site itself
    would be good, so you can get a better feel.

    Thanks,
    Bojana

    And that was it. I didn't bother pursuing this further, though I have to commend her highly on getting back to me each time (and promptly, I might add). In the end, it came down to payment. I wasn't working directly for Flirt4free and they would have me on a "sliding scale", explained like this:
    "You are on a sliding scale of 26%-35%, which means that you start with
    $1.60 per minute of Standard private chat (60 credits per minute). Also,
    for all credits earned in tips and VODs you get $1.60 per each 60
    credits. If you are doing well, we can add Premiere Options to your
    account, so you can earn more per minute."

    All I needed to know. C'mon, for a site with so llittle traffic (her response to that was to note that she saw 150 hosts online - HOSTS), you'd think they could pay a little better than that. Successful websites have their own traffic. Period. There is one sure way to run a camsite into the ground: don't supply traffic to it. I don't care what the commission; hosts will go where the money is, so if there's no traffic, they will leave. I often wondered how some of these sites survive but then again, that's easy - some won't think twice about taking your content and selling it elsewhere, where they do send traffic to and never have to pay you a dime. So why the fuck should they send any traffic to us? Apparently, I'm the only one seeing this though. Noone really gives a damn, therefore, nothing will ever be done about it.
