Getting gals on a cam...

I know it's too little, too late BUT...

the last thing you wanna do is let them make their own schedules and set them up with their own machines and cams, etc... etc....

I would recommend approaching them all like a real job... with schedules they MUST follow. In our studio, we go the extra step of making them sign a contract for 'X' hours a week, and if they don't fulfill it, they don't get paid.

It's tough when a girl can make 5 or 600 USD a night.. most tend to take the attitude that now they don't have to work the rest of the month ;)

Thanks Captain P.. I was thinking about changing it up a bit like you said, and have them first tell us how many hours they can commit to this project (in respect to thier other modeling projects ect) and then having them agree to a certain number of hours in total each week that they will be online. If they dont make that quota each week, first give them a warning, then if it happens again hold pay and if it continually happens the last resort would be to fire them.

Other than that, I have been getting a pretty good response from studio owners wanting to manage several models (and keep them rotating and online every 24 hours)


Do you have a website of your own? What brings you to the GFY forum?

Thanks again for you advice, I appreciate it.

Cheers

Whats with the tag "Im probably spamming" .... Is that just becuase Ive not posted many things in the forum yet?? How do I fix that?

I'll change your tag, but first you have to perform oral on me...

Dont think that happens too often anymore, lots of competition. How much traffic does your site have?

"I'll change your tag, but first you have to perform oral on me..."



lol....I give the best oral sex on the planet....are you sure your up to that kind of an experience??...

It very much happens. If you don't think the top Ifriends models are making that much and more you are mistaken.

you just have to post more and your tag changes, once u hit 1,000 you can set a custom title.

Treat em like stripjoints do. If they're short some hours during the week, charge em so much an hour according to what they're paid...

If you're hot

See, you should have hired me.
I'm *always* online.

[See, you should have hired me. I'm *always* online]

Sure thing, but do you have a webcam and big tits?? hehe

Hell yeah it happens....

My partners and I run a studio for the biggest cam site. It's in every major paysite so the traffic is outrageous. Our girls have 100 to 200 people in the chat the minute they go online... even with 20+ other girls on at the same time.

What part of the world are you in EveBlack ...?????

** What part of the world are you in EveBlack ...????? **

Never mind... just read your profile ;)

Damn EveBlack....

I just signed up for webcams.tv and no one is online

You do have a lot of very attractive girls in your model list. Are you actually working with all those girls or is it just a front to flow traffic..?? I'm just curious cuz if you do have those girls.. you GOTTA get them online. A few of them could make a fortune for ya.!!... but I'm sure you know that.

Have any of them ever put in any time on cam for you...???

Heya Captain.....no front, their all my girls, thus the frusterated first post I put out Have some great Playboy models as well as some super amatures. Most of them have put in some time on the cam and loved it... just need to pump up the motivation I suppose to keep them on there!!

You said you worked for the biggest cam site... I assume IFriends??

Yet again Tony inserts both feet. A girl doesn't even have to strip to make 5-600 a night in a bar dancing IF shes good and knows how to work the weaker sex.

By the way pinky... I mean Eve... lmao GF, I had first call on 'TheBrain'. ;-)

Seriously tho, getting someone in different areas to handle the girls would be the way to go. There have been some sites that had multiple girls but they had problems or treated the girls wrong. (Treated wrong in, not letting the girls decide what they felt they were good at... you can't make a girl with two left feet dance, but she might paint beautifully if you follow the idea)

But then you might cross jurisdictional lines on sex related laws. Catch 22.

And whomever mentioned backcharging girls for shorted hours... ever heard of the Federal Wage and Hour Commission? That is illegal. Not saying it isn't DONE, but sooner or later some one will turn that sort of thing in and the gold badges show up and take ALL of your paperwork, comps and the whole 9 yards for investigation, IRS And ATF agents come with them.

Ever hear of a contract... they sign it and accept the terms.
It's not exactly as cut and dry as them working and not getting paid... but if they don't fulfill their contract.. they will be sorry.



EveBlack... not ifriends. That's a joke in my opinion.
I'd rather not say here but feel free to hit me up on icq if ya want to chat.. 43238043

^^^^^^^^ Yes

Why not have someone like me code up a client/server system that will allow the models to "clock in" and get paid an hourly rate or something while they are working, then when their webcam goes off or they "clock out," that's that. If you have 200 models, I'm sure this would increase the number online at any one time because they would be paid while they are working, just like a damn stripper.

Then have a button like "This Camgirl isn't Putting Out", and when a certain number of users click it, then you clock them out and add to their "penalty" points (kind of like the damn deficiency points I got at OSU that got me in so much trouble)... so many penalty points means they're fired.

Then have a "tip" button or something where the users can tip the models, etc... make them try harder for their money... wow, this is a good idea. LoL

As a matter of fact... I'm going to begin work on this now.

Here are links to some webcam interest groups at Yahoo.com, maybe you need to do more recruiting:

Good luck, let us know how everything goes..

If you're going to do it, take charge.
Provide the location, provide the hardware, provide the contracts, to be able to provide the best product for the customers.

Sorry but camgirls that are used to several thousand a week aren't going to work by the hour for any reasonable wage. Also, I doubt most webmasters would pay the hourly wage most camgirls would be willing to work for.

I am telling you the days of cam girls making thousands of dollars a week is over . I know personally my wife has been a cam girl for 3 yrs. A couple of years back she would put in maybe 20 hrs a week and make a grand. If she put in the hours she puts in now back then she would of made thousands. Bad economy lots of girls out of work, so the number of cam models has grown 10x if not more. Also one of those sites like peekshows that are in pay sites and the girl may talk to alot of guys but most will not buy because its supposed to be part of the pay site. I know a girl that worked for them and she left because it sucked and she was hot . Also she knows how to get money out the customer because she was a stripper in real life.

Your story may be true but that doesn't mean it's true of the whole industry. There's a lot of factors that go in to how much a girl makes... and if she's working for the wrong site, she'll never Bank !!!

How can you look at your one isolated situation with your wife and say it applies to the whole cam niche. You got 3 people in here that run studios telling you you're flat wrong and you're still gonna argue.

Well lets see my wife talks to other cam girls all day long so I think I got a pretty good feel for the industry. Also is the cam studio making lots of money and not the girl? If you got 2000 girls all making 50 bucks a week each you are doing pretty good and the girls are doing pretty shitty. lol Also saying on a board they do well how do you know its true?

I give ya credit for sticking to your story, tony.... BUT

try to see the big picture man... your wife talks to camgirls all day long.. SO WHAT.. I could find way more girls not making money than ones that are Banking. I could also name 100 cam sites that suck and have no traffic. BUT, I guarantee I also know of two studios making more money than they ever imagined, and a boat load of girls making even more !!

I'll admit, it's getting tougher, BUT... there are still a few people running sites with HUGE traffic numbers, and every one of them holds a CC.

I would recommend to you and your wife that you start looking around for an alternative to how you are doing things if her profits really have dropped that much.

I can answer all your questions.
been working with cam models for 3 years now.

..........*looks down*
Why yes, yes I do. ;)

well I'm a Camgirl and yes bussenis sucks right now ...problem with a lot of ccamsites is that you have to be logged in with your cam for the free chatroom and that sucks....lots of freeloaders are wasting your time there.
I prefer the pre-arranged show and make good money with that ...so maybe you need to think about something where the girls don't need to have their cam online all the time.
My motto is if they wanna see something they have to pay, so as soon as they have payed they can see everything of me and more....
I've 3 cams but not found of the idea to be logged in on one site alone ....thats just wasting time

Just curious as to why you think business sucks right now as a cam girl?
So you would prefer having members join your room and pay a rate as soon as are in there. What about having personal one on one private shows? Do you prefer having private shows with multiple people in the room (charging smaller rate per minute), or would you like it better if it was just you and the customer (at a higher rate/minute)? Having private one on one shows with a model is a huge selling feature, so Im curious as to why you think that being "logged in on one site alone is just wasting time". I ask this because one of my models has two computers set up and works both our chat room and another sites room at the same time. We got a complaint from a customer the other day saying that during thier private one on one show (that she was charging $6.00/minute) she kept chatting in her other room! He was livid that he was willing to pay 6.00/minute for a considerable amount of time, and she was pre-occupied with customers on another site all together!!

I would love your imput on what you like and dislike about working as a cam model. What can a site do to keep you interested and motivated to work online, besides the money of course (this is the obvious

Also if a site does have a free chat area, what do you think about having your time online subsidized to make up for that? In that case being paid an hourly wage ontop of whatever you make in private shows.
