    Default Newbie question about doing Skype shows

    So what site do I need to be signed up with in order to do Skype shows & get to keep a higher percentage of my money? I'm not ready to be indie just yet as I'm still learning the ropes of camming. I keep seeing threads mentioning models doing skype shows but I'm not understanding how you obtain those or which sites offer those. Help is muchly appreciated Thanks for having patience with me! x0x0

    There's Skyprivate and Cammodeldirectory at the moment, there are threads on both those sites in CC with super helpful info. I don't work either site so I can't give specifics.

    So from what I've gathered on here I'd need a signifigant amount of regs before it'd even be worth it to try out either site correct? I do have a few regs on SM but nothing that great yet haha.

    Nope go for it. The sooner you start keeping more of your own money the better. Livecammodelshows, whosonline, and webstream are are other ways you can take payments for Skype bookings x

    Camming itself is a sales job and the product ur selling is ur time and services . You need to advertise for indie but you dont need to be popular or big on any other cam site to do it. It helps tho because IMO they feel safer doing shows with well known camgirls VS a girl they never heard of b4

    ^ ya that's what I was thinking too. I had this idea that I'd need to be a vet in order to be indie :p
    So for those sites mentioned by ^ Sexy Susie, I can just sign up & get the customer's money & take them to Skype? I'm all about trying to keep most of my money bc I feel I'm being robbed by SM ugh.

    Don't forget about Adult Verified Video Chat! It's easy to set up and no, you don't need to be a porn star to be on it!

    You don't need to be a total vet, just not a complete novice or someone who won't do enough research to be safe about it. Having reasonable knowledge about camming in general is helpful, and having a basic knowledge of how Skype camming works is important. Being comfortable with your camming abilities and persona is a plus. Being able to spot timewasters and scammers, or at least having a healthy intuition about when to be cautious, is invaluable.

    So here's a basic gist of how it should go:
    1. Set up a profile on one or more of the sites already mentioned (livecammodelshows isn't taking new applicants at the moment, although I recommend it when they are).
    2. In your profile, give some way that you can be reached, such as your Skype name or email. Some people charge for their Skype name, others don't, and there are good arguments for both.
    3. When you are available for Skype shows, log in to your site(s) so that you appear online, and turn your Skype status to "online."
    4. Guys will hopefully contact you on Skype or email to get shows set up. I know that sounds like free chat, and it is, but you almost never want guys to just randomly pay without chatting about it first. You might be in the middle of another show, you might not be willing or able to do the type of show he wants, etc.
    5. Text chat with the guy for a LIMITED amount of time to get the required info. Guys will try to chat you to death, get free dirty chat, and/or bug you into giving out freebies. You only really need to know what site he found you on, because that's where he needs to pay. You need the basic gist of what he wants, so you have the chance to refuse if you can't/won't do it. For most indy shows, which are sold in blocks, you also need to know how long a show he wants.
    6. Once that's sorted, remind him of where and how much to pay (so it's easy and he doesn't get lost or screw up the math).
    7. See if a payment shows up. If not, go about the rest of your business as usual. This is not unusual.
    8. Assuming that you do get a payment for the correct amount, set your timer and call the dude on skype. You should be the one that starts the call (except on Skyprivate) - if you let them do it, they'll jump the gun and call you the second they hit the pay button, and you won't have time to check whether they actually paid correctly.
    9. Finish the show when the timer goes off, or if the guy is done early and wants to leave.

    I highly recommend reading the CMD thread cover to cover when you get the chance. For awhile, CMD was one of the only good processing options, so the thread contains a lot of basic Skype camming info.

    Yes, but you really have to promote Adult Certified Video Chat in order to get any clients. Porn stars take up most of the promoting....so you got to really promote everything yourself. I was going to let them go until I gained a few clients this week. It took a good month to established myself on there but I have notice that most of the girls on there did have use a bikini photo to advertised if they are not porn stars. I did not So, I would say that the results are varied depending on each other model. For me, it did not go well for the first month.
