    Default question for indi cam girls

    what is the most popular method of selling your shows? skype?
    we want to add support for indi cam girls but need to know how to handle this.
    would just adding skype username be enough? do you normally share your skype username publicly?

    What kind of support do you want to provide? Skype is the staple for indy camming. I use several different skype names to see where my efforts are best utilized. And all except for one is listed on web pages.

    well, take a look at this profile: http://paigelittle.reviewmycam.com/

    it has a green button 'Visit me @ Streamate' and it opens that performer's profile on streamate

    We're trying to figure out what that button would do for an independent cam performer and thought of adding 'Call me on Skype' button which would initiate a chat/call with the Skype user the performer has provided. The thing is, this means ALL independent cam girls wanting to be listed will have to have a public Skype username. Just want to make sure we will not have to turn away any indi cam girls if we go this route...

    I don't think that would work at all.
    In fact that sounds like a very bad idea to me.
    It would increase time wasters by a ridiculous amount.
    I too don't share my skype name publicly for various reasons.

    we will have a private message system, so perhaps the button can initiate a contact that way? or email directly the performer?

    yes, we will allow posting of twitter, facebook, personal website. that will be in a separate section. the way our system is setup, the green button can only be used for 1 function for indies. so either it opens a yahoo chat, a personal message, an email or something else...

    appreciate your feedback girls!

    the page looks like its a white label for sm . ur trying to link up a models sm account to her skype? i think thats a violation of SMs TOS. with a page like that linking a models skype and SM model name it makes it super easy to cut out the middle man and get a model to go indie VS paying for a show on SM. if thats ur white label and ur model name u linked if SM finds out it could be a real shit storm for you. some indie models make ppl pay for their skype name like on CMD (cam model directory) the site has a messaging system and some models chose to use that as a means of contact until the show is paid or they can chose to have their skype name listed on the page. i think this route is something you should consider (having a built in messaging system on the site and letting models have the option to list their skype on their profile or not)

    no, not at all, i was only using that profile as an example. if we offer the option of showing skype, it only would be for independent cam girls.

    That sounds better. I think a personal message through the site would be fine and then give the option of displaying a yahoo or skype name.

    i think based on feedback, we wont force indies to provide skype. we'll let the users contact them through our site and leave both parties to work out how they would like to proceed.

    we're about to launch the next phase of the site and let performers such as yourself, whose profiles we've imported from streamate, take ownership of their profile and make any changes they want. This will include changing the info that's there, add personal site, fb/twitter as well as other sites you perform on. If you would like to be one of the first let me know, we need testers to get feedback

    I looked at the site and I'm still trying to understand the incentive for a indy girl to join? Does it cost to be added? How do you determine who is listed and where they are listed? Sure exposure is great but this looks like a hobbyist board for camgirls? And I personally hate those. The girls who are currently listed on the front page of your site how did they get there? I have a bunch of questions, and please know that it's not meant to be confrontational. Just things pop in my head as I type. It looks like the women in the "white label" script are from studios. And they typically have lower prices. Something to think about, how would an Indy girl compete with those prices on your site?

    But with all of that aside if I wanted to be listed I don't think I would use my main cam persona. I would probably use a new skype name and a new persona. Or and email address where they can go through a screening. I know it sounds complicated, but I wouldn't want "free chat" guys hitting me up on skype all day. And besides you can use multiple skype applications at once. Sorry to ramble on but in short I don't think I would want my well known indy name mixed in with a site that seems to heavily promote streamate. I would definitely use a different name. My indy customers googling me and finding me on a hobbyist board would suck. Just recently went through this when I started back up on SM. Guys would book twice a week on skype now sit in my free chat room reminiscing about the last time they paid me. Not cool. Yes hardcore guys will find you, but I now realize I should make it more difficult for them. Instead of connecting the dots.

    i appreciate the questions, they help us prepare listings will be free. of course, the site was not designed with indi cam girls in mind, but we're trying to find ways to accommodate them. So the benefits will not be as big as for a performer camming on a site, but they'll still be worthwile enough to get listed. I will save these for the official release though, don't want to give out all the surprises.
