Good Lighting!
There's just NO WAY around it. I sort of took my time getting the right lighting like I was supposed to. (ahem wiki...lol) and I did ok at first, but I noticed a huge difference in my earnings after getting it bright in my room. I paid attention to other popular girls on the site and compared where I should have my lights. I looks alot better on cam too. Guys were able to see everything in my shows and I started to get rated VERY high. :) You need good ratings to keep good members coming back for more! I say you at least need light pointed towards the front of you. I just got a couple $10 to $20 floor and desk lamps at a local thrift store, walmart, or target like this:

I kept a couple lamps around the house and just got a couple white bulbs.
Don't Worry, Be Happy!
Be Happy at all times even if you are down. I learned this at a telemarketing job I had. I knew that all I needed was a few people to say yes and I would do pretty good commision. At least until that job started to suck and it was a "job" 9 to 5.. ill.. lol Anyways.. With this webcam thing, it's similar, I always look happy and ready to perform a great show, because I learned that there are always big spenders looking to take me private at any time, so when other girls get discouraged and get upset that it's slow for them this hour, I work my hours online as well as I can every time to main good consistent money and pay! One of the best advice I got from the model guide is to remain focused on having a good time on cam. Anybody who is not playing by my rules in my chatroom will quickly get kicked out. I do not play that! lol
Look Good and Sexy!
I try to ALWAYS look my best. I put on makeup and have my hair looking as good as I can every time I log on. This drives the guys nuts. I'm the girl next door with the model look and the guys love it! Lip sticks looks tasty. Eyeliner is hot.. I wear my favorite lingerie. I keep the oil near by just in case... mmm hmm lol
Mean Business!
I hold these guys accountable. If they are rude, they have to leave my chat room. I am very clear with what I am willing to do and am not willing to do. "You get anal only from 1 angle".. Easier to fake anal while sitting on down spread eagle! I just run my toy through without actually going in my bum. lol I learned this as well. I did not "do anal" before, now I just say I do it and fake it in that one position. Works wonders for me. "I will show you flashes for a tip!", etc..
Occassionally I will chat topless at least 30 mintes. This drives the guys crazy. I do this after I've had a private chat or something. Usually someone takes me right back private when I do this. I switch it up every now and again but mainly my clients know what they are going to get from me!
Pay Attention!
I pay attention to my clients. I write down who takes me private for a while and who is just a minute man.. lol This allows me to identify who my best paying members are and I make sure I greet them and seek them out when they enter my room. YOU BET!! This shows them I "think about them" and gives them that extra "juice" amongst the members. ***BOYS*** will be boys with their male egos.. hehe :) Truth is.. I just write their names down. You would be surprised how easy they are to remember your top 10 or 20 clients that I KNOW I can count on to take care of me. And I make sure I take care of them. Many of these guys just want to have a conversation and give me "fatherly" advice like a "man should".. whatever!! lol I'll take the paper!! Thank you very much. I used to just immediately get naked and do my own thing in private. But now I ask plenty of questions, "getting to know" my client and have a nice pace in private seducing him. I never rush though.
Dance to a beat!
Play some music! It's great to play some good pop, rock, dancehall, reggae, etc music that moves people. I usually play uptempo house, pop, and hip hop. Rhianna, drake, lil wayne, timbaland, etc. top 40. This helps me lighten up the mood. Gives me more energy. Also gives people more entertainment. When members come in my room, it's a party! Par-TAY!!
Be Consistent
The more consistent you are, the more consistent your pay and members taking you private / tips are going to be. Perform consistent hours online. Consistently have good lighting. Conistently be in a good mood, and horny :). Act like you care at least!
HAVE A GOOD SHOW!
Make sure your show is good to great. Are you showing multiple angles? Check! Lighting good? check! Are you in a sexy position? Do you have toys? Are you interactive with your client? Act like you care? Ask questions? Know how to move sexy? Do you moan or show you enjoy the show? is your room clean and clear of clutter? have a good / clean surroundings?
Have FUN!
Sounds cliche, but it's absolute truth. I try and put on my best mood and horny like I really want to be online and find some online sex! This really sells it for me. And guys love to be with me.. it uplifts their spirits and lets them know they're gunna have a good time with me!!! (black eye peas!)
READ and Learn!
DO yourself a favor and take time out to learn how to get better. Read the guide. Ask the staff questions. Check out some of the models. I used to always look at the top models and ask myself "why not me?" and now I'm one of the top models! :) All because I took this seriously and really believed in it!
Don't Give out your info!
Besides not being the smartest or safest thing to do, it's against the rules. I like money and good opportunities.. lol. It's definitely NOT worth it to have some weirdo really contact me. I let these guys know the only way they can get close to me is through private chat or tipping me. They can all catch me live when im online on this site, if not, then don't bother. These guys will say anything for a chance to meet me or get my information. Then what? Stalker? sheesh. Most of these guys will try you, and say they will offer the world and fly here and fly there.. PLEASE. Lies, lies, lies... "I'll be your sugar daddy."... I'm on this site, so I don't need a sugar daddy. I'm getting my own money. I usually say "Mhmmm, Let's start off by taking me private, then we'll see how we progress!" But little do they know, that's also where it ends. and if they're asking too strongly and won't give up, I will just say "NO, only on this site", and they will usually give up and keep taking me private or stop pursuing me. No problem either way. Plenty of guys who pay on the site that will just be happy to take me private. I can get paid and maintain my security and safety.
Toys!
You Must have toys to REALLY take off on this site. Toys make me feel better but it also gives the boys a better view of everything. :) I hear the Hitach Magic Wand is incredible! I chose to keep it simple and just have a few different site vibrators. Here's some cool toys!:
Have a good webcam
Having a good webcam is important of course. Most webcams will do the trick. Having bright lights is most important I think. Can't go wrong with logitech webcams though. They are pretty affordable too. Trisha is pretty good with helping models with this. Naked chat usually gives out webcams to models working for while. Email her and ask her for a webcam, she will let you know if you can have a free webcam or not!!
Ask Questions!
I can't stress enough. Asking questions is what I do! I love being nosey first of all..lol, but I realize how it really does add time to your privates. Many of my privates are just conversation. I know, kinda boring! but wait until these guys start to spilling their guts on how their wives treat them, or how their jobs are, or how important they are, etc..lol Although it may not be true, it makes for some interesting chats thats for sure! and those chats usually end up being my longest.. 1 hour, 2 hours straight private chats are my favs! I usually just make things up, and get crazy with my imagination. The member feels like they "know me better" afterwards, I just laugh.. I guess!!! But in the end, that's all that counts is they enjoyed being with me, that and my bank account. okayyyyy!! lol
Role Play!
I love to change roles. Once second I'm one hard bitch to crack lol. The next Im a sweet little girl next door that's not such a freak. I'm what you want me to be during privates (within my limits of course). School girl or cowgirl, no problem! I can teach them a few things as well!
Talk to the guys! They love it
While I like to type and don't feel like talking sometimes. I realize that it's much better talking to the guys since they love that interactivity. Sound is VERY important in ANY production. So knowing that, I try to moan and call out their names, if they've earned it! A sexy voice goes a lonnnng way! If my roommate is home or I don't feel like talking as much, I'll just tell the guys I have to be quiet today or I'll say "You boys will get sound only in private chat".
Always Tease
No man likes a boring girl. At least act excited to be here! lol Tease, be seductive. have fun like you were yearning for that hot guy. I think about my hubby, anything to keep me in the mood. This energy goes through cam I swear because guys can't keep thier virtual hands off me!
Don't forget to reset your traffic!
I try to reset my traffic by just leaving free chat. I don't have to log off, just leave free chat and re-enter. I do this by clicking "go offline" and then re-clicking on go online again. This allows me to refresh my chat room and get some other members in my room. Maybe come up on a higher page of the site. This also gets many of the members off the fence and being silent. They will start to talk to me now, since they thought I just left. Just something that I noticed works for me, so I kept doing it. It could help you out as well.
Spice it up!
Don't let your show get dull. Have fun. SPICE IT UP!! Get some new toys, Try out a new position or new role. Or new outfits. New wig. New partner?? Whip cream?? mmm Rethink your shows! Try and get better. There IS such a thing you know!
Always Ask for tips and private
I ALWAYS make sure I don't let too much time go by before I ask for private and tips. I'm DEFINITELY NOT shy about mines. I'm on here to make money, not friends. Saying you want to meet me is NOT enough. Pay me first on here, THEN you MIGHT get a chance to chat about "meeting me". (yeah Right.. creepy lol) I make sure I remind these guys why I'm here. I got bills to pay. Help me pay them :)
Make sure you fill out your Tip Topic!!
Make sure to fill out your tip topic! I usually just put how many tips I want for what action. SO I put 10 tips for nipples / tits flash, 20 for toy bj, etc. I usually keep my tip goal to 50 or 100 and do a short 5 minute tip show in free chat afterwards. I may do anything from dancing naked and teasing while naked to use of my toys. Once I'm done, I reset my tip goal and do it all over again. You can still receive tips after your goal has been reached, but you definitely want to reset your goal after you perform your tip goal action. This lets members know they need to tip in order to get you closer to your goal.
