    Default I actually am useless at this job!

    I just feel so crappy at this , I have never made over $200 in a week , maybe its because im shy but I literally have no idea what to say online or how to lure them in to get privates with me or even groups , can anyone mentor me and help stop the reign of bad luck. I really want to start earning sorry for the little rant

    Camming is alot harder than it used to be.. when i started there were only about 80 girls online at the most popular site there was... now there are hundreds.. but i feel your pain.. because i am an extremely boring free chat girl.. my only entertainment is to be bitchy to them..lol.. or sometimes silly things.. when i am nothing but nice i do not get shows. It sucks because I would rather be nice and get shows..lol

    hello thanks I am on adultwork and SM, been camming the last year , have had to be honest one good day out of all those where most I earned was 100 in two hours, Im in Ireland and doing this solo through dailypay. Ah I just wish I could get honestly better at this job, maybe even earning 300 a week would have me so happy

    Ok, well I also cam on both those sites and I'm with DP. As has been said already camming is deffinately not an easy gig any more. When I first started on AW I was banking £700-£1000 (yes thats sterling not dollars and that's after all deductions ), I was also only working 3-4 hours a night 5 nights a week! Now I HAVE to work both sites at the same time for a min of 8 hours day and night 7 days a week to get any where near that! I don't think you have said how many hours or days you work but obviously the more you are on the more likely you are to earn what you are after. Also time of day will have an affect. Do you have a niche? That can also have an affect, some niches are very popular so could be worth looking into, could be you can cover a niche you don't even know about? PM me a link to your profiles and I'll see if there's anything obvious if you like.

    I'm not shy but I am a quiet person. I just don't like to talk so it was hard for me when I first started out too.
    You just have to go online, and put on a show. Even though you may feel shy, you have to be able to talk to these guys and keep their attention. It takes practice.
    When you go online, paste a smile on your face and just start talking. Even in no one is talking to you, talk to yourself, lol. I know it sounds funny, but that's what worked for me.
    Some girls play the bitch online and it works really well for them. I try to always be the 'sweet girl next door' but I don't take any shit and will get an attitude when I need to.

    Part of the reason I put on a bunch of makeup and wear a wig is because it makes me feel like a different person, so I can get into character and feel free to act as my character would. In real life I'm more shy and conservative and nicer. Maybe dressing up totally different will help you get out of your shell like it does with me.

    You don't have to change who you are to do this job but you have to learn to adapt. You can be shy on the inside and still act confident on the outside. Focus less on yourself and more on the custies.
    I would recommend going on Streamate and watch how other girls hustle and be inspired by them.

    "If at first you don't succeed, Try, try, try again." Just like Marina said you have to learn how to adapt. If this is your only means you have to survive you gotta grab it by the you know what and show it who's boss. Even if that means you have to try different times, a new website, and start selling content. We all had those days were it doesn't matter how big your smile is, how pretty you look, or how long your trying to pry some tokens or private out of someone we all have bad days log off take a nap or whatever makes you happier and log on again you will be surprised how big of a difference being clear headed is.

    I can't find you on Streamate or AW. So that's not good. I googled you nothing came up for camming. Having a recognizable name or brand might help guys find you. What if they forgot your name? Maybe make a Twitter etc. I will try again if you PM me when you will be on. But I'm west coast time sooo...

    Default Re: I actually am useless at this job!

    i never really tried SM, but i am on AW. And I agree the money is not amazing on AW. I don't use freechat at all & I get a lot of 1 minute guys. But then I have regulars who come everyday or every two days and spend 30mins to an hour with me. I'm in the teasing teens category and I'm always really far down and almost hidden. So sometimes I move myself into the less popular categories like voyeur or bizzare fetish and I do fetish/voyeur shows BUT every1 who comes in my room on these nights do not know I am in that category and always ask for a vanilla toy show. SO i am beginning to think placement means nothing and that guys are finding me by searching for atributes (hair colour, height, age, location). SO i will say to you make sure your atributes are correct and also make it so ur location is somewhere very populated. My location is in a city that I know has a very big population. guys on AW tend to want to play with local girls. If ur city in Ireland is not very big, change it to a city where u know will have lots of customers.

    You aren't useless at this job, you are just learning how to do it.

    Being everything to everyone is not an easy task to undertake. (*laughs*) You've been given so much great advice that the only small piece I can add is to be gentle on yourself during the learning process.
