    Default Organizing your work

    Sorry i've been out for a while but i miss all you lovely ladies here on SW! <3 <3

    My question is how do you manage when you get an influx of custom video orders? Even if I write it all down it gets quite annoying having to write such long notes, I mean some custom videos i do are very detailed so
    when you get like 20 customs in the same day what do you do? ( Most want fast delivery too and i wanna keep them all happy lol)
    Also do you tend to treat it like a camming shift?
    I feel with all the props and toys, filming over 10 customs in a day is overly exhausting. Like even more than a 7+ hour Cam shift (IMO).
    Also i webcam a lot too, as i am a camgirl i just sell the videos on the side but it requires more attention and time than i thought it would.
    but the moolah is good and obviously custom videos are in demand or something.

    Any comments from girls who work on cam for 15 or more hours a week and do the video hustle too, I totally want to pick your mind right now.
    I enjoy my cam shifts, and making videos.
    HOW IN THE HELL DO YOU DO THIS! lol

    Oh and Thanks in advance!!

    Just out of curiosity, how long are these clips you're making and how much are you charging, if I may ask? I couldn't imagine making twenty clips in a day. I do make clips on the side, but I don't think I could help so much with organization as I don't even make twenty a month.

    EDIT: I do use Evernote for most of my organization. That may be helpful. It's downloadable as a phone and computer app. It will sync to both.

    20 customs in a day? Damn girl! I get like maybe 15 custom vid requests a month, mayyybe! How much are you charging for these vids? You may need to raise your custom rates if doing that many vids a day is taking up most of your time. I find doing customs to be very exhausting and I usually set aside half a day once a week to video and then whatever time it takes to edit I do in the evening after my cam shifts and I have a 5 business day turnaround.

    Wish I could offer more advice, but maybe look into charging more if it is taking up that much of your day. Less requests for the same or more money!

    Pippa- I charge per minute(5$-10$) and you have to buy a minimum of 10 minutes. The price depends on what all i gotta do and if there's a script or not but it's def not on the cheap end of things..... customs are a bitch and i charge like so.
    So i do charge fairly on the high side i'll be quite honest.
    I just find myself overwhelmed with all of this, it's like i get a lot done one day and the next day i have a kabillion more. (an exaggeration ofcourse)
    I do work on multiple video sites so this isn't just one lucky site making me work the vag.
    MBS- I feel if i charge any higher i'll be a scam artist LOLOL I charge so high, sometimes i don't even wanna do the damn custom so i say ill do it for a ridiculous price and they pay it.

    I'll def check out that program and try to find a easy method to not only keep track of all these, but have it done in a timely fashion that's more organized and not so hectic.
    I hate tweeting " Currently not taking customs at this time" because i have 20 damn customs on my plate. LOL i hate turning down business! I want to get organized to where i can have my beloved streamate shifts
    and have time to make all these damn customs.

    It's a blessing, but it's still very annoying. lolol gotta brainstorm a possible method to get this mess organized!

    What gets scheduled gets done, i guess.
    Sometimes i have to decline some things in a favour for another more important to me. I was busy and i could not go on mfc. So mfc something which may give me money or may not, and i will go there spend my time and thats it. Clips on another side, take 30 mins today and will give you money all the time.

    Okay great! I'm happy you're charging a good rate! You are just a very popular woman! Not a bad problem to have.

    What's your turn-around time? Maybe let guys know it'll be longer (if it is really quick) to give your self some lee-way to film/edit etc. Then maybe do like 5 hours (or whatever) a day and then whatever camming hours on top of that? Split days into a cam shift and a filming shift? And if guys have to wait, they have to wait. You are in high demand girl! You call the shots with them. You are good, they will wait like good little boys.

    Or maybe hire a sexy man assistant to help?
