    Default Not camming on weekends and does it affect your money?

    Anyone not work weekends, as in (Friday or Friday nights, Saturday or Saturday nights, Sunday or Sunday nights)?
    Due to family time and socializing, I am not able to work any weekends at all. Sometimes I do wonder if I am missing out on major income because I am assuming those are the prime times for most people. I've even had custies tell me to come on cam Fridays because that's when they get paid and will have money but those days are absolutely not doable for me at all.

    Anyone else not work weekends and still able to do well or meet their financial goes without camming those specific days/nights?

    Skip the entire week/weekend and work Sunday morning.
    Yes, I'm real.

    Darlin, do NOT beat yourself up about possible missed earnings or best days!! There is really no point!

    I rarely work nights AT ALL. I work from 11-4pm most days (or some variation around that time) because I want my time free to do other things and enjoy my life. That is one of the great things about camming - you can work any time you want!!! Take advantage of that, enjoy your social life, and don't feel like you are missing out.

    And everyone has different "peak times" - some find Sundays aweseome, some weekend nights, some Monday mornings, some Wed afternoons. There is no one "best time" to cam. Remember - your client base is the entire world. So if you are camming at noon on a Friday, somewhere it might be friday night, somewhere it might be saturday morning! Don't get too concerned about times, because even if guys ONLY logged in from 5pm onwards....it's always night time somewhere in the world!

    It's always wank'o'clock somewhere! LOL

    I hardly cam weekends and when I do I notice no difference earnings - sure I might have a $300 night on Friday but I also have them on Mon-Thursday as well - it really just depends - there is no best days that I can tell.

    Work consistently. Stick to a schedule. Build up regulars. Work those same hours all the time. No matter what day as long as you have regulars, you'll do awesome or at least make your goals. You really don't need to work certain days of the week. There is no one day that is the holy grail bank day for ALL camgirls. Some girls do awesome on Mondays. Some suck on Sundays. Some do awesome on Thursdays. Everyone is different.

    Work around the days/hours that you have made work for you.

    I only do webcam and phone chat on weekdays from around 10am to 3pm...I can do instant message outside those times though on Adultwork, so that helps. The problem I have with working those hours is the variability of earnings...I can't just work later as other girls can, the most I can do is get on cam as early as possible and then add to my income with instant message and movies. It's just how it is but then again, I don't really want to be a slave to webcam and work all hours...what I do is enough hours for me.

    Work whenever is best for YOU, based on your location. Sometimes it helps to think about other timezones around the world, as they relate to yours (are you around during lunchtime in London, Bahrain or NYC?) but often that makes absolutely no difference. I've been working days for months but I've recently switched to nights and I'm doing great, tonight, at 1am PST. I think I was a total fail at this exact time, two weeks ago. It's almost entirely random but it's always peak hours somewhere, in the world.

    I don't work on weekends either. Just as Hayden said, having a schedule and staying with it works better than trying to figure out what day is the luckiest. I mostly get money from regulars, who know when they can catch me online and stick to those hours.

    Sometimes I work weekends sometimes I don't...no matter when I work my hourly average usally stays between $xx-$yy although sometimes Ill have a really good hour randomly....
    Like usually Saturday nights at a certain time are great for me....however last night when I got on I made somewhere on the lower end of my range of "expected hourly income" when last Saturday I was banking at the same time.

    I can only cam random weekends here and there because I'm usually working my retail job so I never add them to my schedule, but the times I have I do very well...which kind of makes me think I should just quit my retail job because it makes a huge difference to my pay. Just today on SM in 2hrs I made over $100 which I usually don't make on the weekdays in 5hrs-SMH!

    I only work during US office hours because thats the hours I have available to work. I'm sure my earnings are different than if I could work nights and weekends but they are ok (and all I know lol)
    Like Hayden said, make a schedule and stick to it. I find it really hard but it definitely shows up on your paychecks.

    Also like other girls mintioned, dont stress over the dollars your not earning when you cant cam. Stress over working the hours you have available.

    I work a part-time job in the mornings during the week and I cam at night. Sometimes I work late at night. I work weekends but not all the time. You just should work when you are available to work. When I feel I need a day or night off from cam I will take it. Sometimes I feel omg I took a day off from cam but I know I shouldn't feel that way otherwise I will get myself stressed and its not worth it.

    It's all about priorities.

    You say the weekends are absolutely not doable for you because of family time and socializing, so would it really matter if anyone told you "OMG YES you will bank on the weekends!!!!" ? If family time and socializing are more important to you than working weekends, don't work weekends.

    I agree that sticking to a schedule and being consistent are more important than certain days of the week. Personally, I choose to do my family time during the week and weekend day time, and I don't really "socialize" much with anyone except my family and husband... so that works anytime for me really.

    Priorities.
    xoxo ~ Sarah

    It would only affect your money if you have only been camming weekends, because thats when your regulars would expect you to be on. Otherwise, no.

    To throw in something else: I went to a showing of a documentary about Happiness and they talked about what people in hospice seemed to regret. It was often: working too hard and too long, not having fun, not partying enough, not taking risks, wanting more time with loved ones, etc etc etc but often about work

    you get the idea.

    Whenever Im burned out Im like "wtf have I been doing?" and the answer usually points to "not enough work / life balance" aka... fun.

    So, what Im saying is: look at your time on the weekends socializing as burnout prevention. If youre not making your goals, definitely try to shoehorn it in, but respect that youve alloted time to have fun... lol I know this is morbid but seriously, a lot of people dont?

    ^^ read an article yesterday that reiterated exactly this - a group of motivational speakers who have had near death experiences - one was on the plane that landed in NY Harbor - all said the exact same thing - they regretted working to much

    On my current site I couldn't afford to take weekends off simply because I'm most consistent with my hours on the weekends so that's when my regs know when to find me and I make the most money. Usually double what I make during weekdays. I previously worked on a site where I hardly made anything on the weekends and eventually just stuck to weekdays because it didn't make sense to give up my Saturdays and Sundays for literally just a few dollars.

    I agree, as long as you are consistent with your scheule it really doesn't matter what your schedule is.

    In three months I will be moving in with my guy and will have to work around his schedule so if he is off on weekends, I will have to take off too. I am secretly hoping that he will have to work on weekends and his days off will be my slowest days on cam so that my new schedule won't impact my earnings too much. That being said, even though the initial adjustment period might suck if you are able to give it a few weeks, promote yourself, and let your guys know when you'll be online you can make any schedule work for you.
