A successful lady who makes over $3,000 a month, but doesn’t get up at 8 a.m. and doesn’t spend all her time at work. A self-sufficient young man who saved up for a car in only four months, but he has never once had a conflict with his boss and more than that, never left home! Is it possible? Of course, if you are a webcam model!
Making a decision to start working in webcam, a girl must first understand exactly who a webcam model is, and what her role is. This profession appeared recently, when the Internet became fast enough and webcams became powerful. At first it was pure amateurism, but gradually the market for these services stabilized, and professionals appeared – both chat room organizers and web-models with high salaries.
Who is a webcam model and how do you become one?
What do webmodels do in chat rooms? These are girls and guys who chat with all kinds of people using a webcam and get paid for it. It can be erotic dancing, striptease, or just talking on distracted topics, the main thing is that the interlocutor is satisfied and wants to pay for a private chat with this model again. To work you need:
- A computer (laptop, tablet or smartphone) with uninterrupted Internet access.
- A webcam and a good quality microphone.
- Workplace – the part of the room that the client will see in the frame.
- Register on the site.
The webcam model herself must:
- Be friendly, flirtatious;
- look sexy;
- be able to hold a conversation partner.
It’s no secret that the Internet gathers people with all sorts of preferences and predilections, but that’s the beauty of virtual communication – it can be stopped at any minute. It’s important not to reveal anything about yourself. Specialists advise instead of a real name come up with a legend – a new name, address, life history. This will not only protect you from inadequate people, but also will be a good way to loosen up – the web-actress as if playing another person who can do anything.
There is so much information on the Internet about the webcam business that even ordinary users have become seriously interested in this field of activity. You can find so many articles on how to become a webcam model, where it is only written that you need to register, sit in front of a webcam and the money will flow like a river. All of this is not just an understatement, but a glossed over text to entice people.
Let’s rip off all the masks and talk frankly not only about how to become a webcam model, but also what her duties are, the essence of working in a video chat. How you can increase your income working in webcam, and what kind of difficulties you have to face.
What is the job of a webcam model?
Let’s talk about what a webcam model’s working day is like and how you can make money on the world wide web. To do this, we thought it would be worthwhile to talk to one of our successful webcam models.
Hello! My name is Antonina and I have been working for ModelMe as a webcam model for 2 years now. I will be glad to share my impressions and experience!
I decided to give you the most detailed description of the main moments of work process of video chat model (webcam-actress as I like to call myself). Based on my own experience I will try to tell you as much as possible!
Communicating
The biggest challenge a webcam model faces is communicating properly with people in video chat. You have to find an individual approach to each person. Always smile and be welcoming.
To make it easier to understand, let me give you an example: what do you do with those who come to visit you? You try to show your best side. Members are guests who have essentially come to the webcam model’s home. Greet your guest, try to learn as much as you can about them. Be affectionate with those who are looking for tenderness, companionship and comfort online and be happy that the person found all this exactly in your room.
A set schedule
When you work in a company or an office you need to come to work at 9 am, go to lunch at 12:30 and finish the day at 6 pm. A webcam model also needs a schedule to follow. This is the only way to establish a workflow and plan your day. In this way, the webcam model has time to do all her household chores, earn money, and still have time for herself!
Maintaining Social Media
Imagine any social network you know of. What do you do there? You post photos, leave various notes, sometimes write letters to your friends. A webcam model should also keep an eye on her profile on the sites where she broadcasts. Update her galleries, add things on her profile, send motivating e-mails to her members and leave notes on her page. All of this must be done in addition to communicating in the video chat room itself.
Creating an image
“One thing every webcam model needs to realize is that you have a lot of competition.” That’s pretty much what the managers told us. I think they only say that so that girls don’t treat their work as mere entertainment, but take it seriously.
After getting my own experience, I realized that a webcam model should be a bright personality! Of course, nature has already given us a unique appearance. Now your task is to play up your image correctly. The image – it’s not just clothes and makeup. First of all, creating your image should begin with the character, manner, to find a certain zest and have all this lovely stuffing beaten with suitable clothes and makeup.
The desire to become better!
All of the above will help you as a webcam model, earn enough money, but if you don’t take the time to improve your skills, then, unfortunately, you will stagnate in one place. So you just need to pull yourself together and be sure:
- Take care of your appearance.
- Make a definite schedule of work and follow it.
- Ask any questions to managers.
- Read and learn more about the psychology of communication.
- Try to cope with their stiffness.
- If you wish, enroll in dance or striptease classes.
- Discover the creative person in me!
As for me…
I went through some stages of awareness of my profession. So I think that if I share it with you, the conclusion will be made much faster.
3 days – that was enough time to make sure that a webcam model can make decent money!
5 days – I needed a schedule, so I made my own schedule. I printed out a schedule and marked when I started to work, and how many hours I worked. I tried to motivate myself!
Week 1 – after 7 days I realized that a webcam model should be able to present herself correctly and began to think over her unique image.
Day 10 – I wrote down all my questions and put them to my manager. Also I watched other webcams-models in order to get experience.
2 weeks – I started to study English on my own. Only 1 hour a day and I was very happy with the results.
2.5 weeks – a webcam model has to answer her clients quickly so as not to miss them. I needed a course in mastering blind typing.
3 weeks – realized that my vocabulary and imagination are pretty limited. To have something to talk about with clients, I wrote down topics that interested them and started to get into them. Whether it was cars, soccer, tennis or even mysticism. A webcam model had to be not only attractive, but also educated. I read books with a cup of green tea before going to bed.
1 month – decided to pay more attention to the whole workflow and every little thing!
1.5 months – upgraded my computer and bought a decent webcam.
2 months – reached $3,000 in earnings for a period (15 days). Quit my official job.
