Webcam Model with Personality

Connect With Personality

We’ve seen it many times: a beautiful cam model outperformed by a cam model who might not be as gorgeous, but who knows how to use their personality to attract customers.

Remember this adage: Your physical look is what attracts customers. Your personality is what keeps them coming back.

The ability to form strong connections with customers is what sets middling cam models apart from highly successful ones. So how do you use your personality to turn a new customer into someone who will be with you for years to come?

Here are some strategies that you can put into play immediately. Consider these as tools to help you “tune up” your webcam performance. Ready?

TOOLS FOR DEVELOPING PERSONALITY

  • Ask the Right Questions: When you go out with someone for the very first time, and all they do is talk about themselves, are you likely to ask for a second date? Probably not. Well, the same principal applies for your first-time customers. Asking questions shows customers that you’re interested in them as people. It also reveals valuable information you can implement to turn up the heat on their private show experience.
  • Follow-up Questions: You’re not just trying to make a customer think you’re interested, you’re also trying to seduce their mind, discuss their hobbies, tease them with your knowledge of their likes and dislikes, etc. Follow-up questions pave the way to real conversations, and conversation is the foundation of constructing strong relationships.

Use Your Unique Voice

  • Be Vocal: Most customers who spend time with you will find talking (as opposed to typing your replies) in your open room much more enjoyable and worthwhile. This is even more important in private. Typing your responses is time consuming (in a time-based show type) and can be an obstacle when you’re trying to hone in on an intimate moment.
  • Don’t Jump to the Juicy Parts: When a private begins, don’t immediately begin performing. Spend time learning, conversationally, what it is that they’re seeking. Ask them questions about their day (yes, more questions are good). Share something personal about yourself (it doesn’t have to be true), and let them know how excited you are to be with them. The more special they feel, the more comfortable their experience will be with you.

Positive Thinking is Everything

  • Be Positive: Don’t underestimate the power of being positive. Customers will come to you seeking many things: companionship, intimacy, erotic fantasy and conversation. They’re looking for an escape from the stress of their real life day-to-day life. Smile. Elevate them to a more positive place. Be confident and welcoming. Your good attitude lets customers know they’ve come to the right place — a place that’s better than the reality they are used to. You will become their positive fantasy.
  • Notes are Your Friend: Learn to take notes on specific customers while they’re in your chat room. Use these notes to double-down on the particulars of a certain user. He or she will thank you. Remembering the fine details of any interaction is a smart way to show customers you value them for who they are. Customers want to be seen as being special in your eyes. It makes them feel as if your shared experience was as positive for you as it was for them. This level of dedication will distinguish you from the majority of the models they visit either on your site or a competitor’s site.

Appreciation

  • Flirty Nicknames: Concocting a personalized flirty nickname for a customer is another tried-and-true way to make your interactions more intimate and memorable. Making them feel like they are the apple of your eye, even in a small way, will play a huge factor in converting them into return customers.
  • Appreciate Generosity: Be ever grateful for every tip, large or small. Honestly, none of us know if a customer is wealthy or on a tight budget. The amount that they spend in your room could mean more to them than the amount itself (the monetary value) suggests. Let them know you appreciate their tip (even if it’s a small amount). Remember, you are making a difference in a person’s life You should trust that they are rewarding you with a value that is sufficient to what they can afford. Saying, “thank you” or shouting out their screen name when they tip is another way to make them feel more connected and special.

Not every model is a social dynamo. It’s natural to feel shy and intimidated in your early camming sessions. But remember, you are the star of your chatroom. These customers clicked on you, hoping you’re the right model for them. If you struggle with engaging your users, following these simple tips will help you establish longer and more lucrative connections with the customers who visit you.

Web Cam Modeling: Private Shows (Part TWO)

In PART ONE of this two-part series, we opened up the idea of how to make your private web cam modeling shows memorable. Now, in this second installment, we’ll go even deeper and provide you with additional on-cam strategies to help you maximize your earnings on cam. Put these into practice and you’ll be dominating on cam in no time.

Ready, models? Let’s dive in and get learning.

Tips for Web Cam Modeling Success

Be Truthful: Be as honest as you can (without risking your safety and privacy) about yourself. Namely, be honest about your turn-ons and turn-offs. Being an authentic presence is a major force in turning new (and potential) customers into regulars. While the sexy stuff is a still a part of 1-on-1 performances, the customers who feel close to your personality—who actually feel a personal connection with you—are more likely to return for more exciting private sessions.

Your Limitations: You should also be clear about your limitations (i.e. what you are NOT willing to do). If a customer asks you to do something you’re not into, politely inform them that you can’t and be apologetic. Leading them on is not a wise strategy. Even if they go to other sites to meet those needs, you’ve enabled a real trust that could bring them back to this private experience at another time.

Take it Slow: Yes, slow down. Give a little tease. Take it slowly, seductively. Private web cam modeling shows are time-based, and the longer they last, the more money you earn. Prolonging your strip routine while a paying customer is asking for more money risks losing that customer. Get to their requests as quickly and naturally as possible. A customer who is satisfied with the overall experience will be back. Also, a customer who felt they paid too much or that you teased too much without delivering the goods will not

Finally…

Involve Your Fans: Fans of  web cam modeling will tell you the best thing about a live cam show is that they get to be involved in the sexy creative process. Their unique input becomes an important part of the performance. Keep the following in mind. You want each and every customer to imagine you’re touching yourself BECAUSE of them (and not another). Speak to them throughout the show. Address them. Ask them how you’re doing, and if they like what you’re doing. A little dirty talk works well towards making your customers feel like they are truly part of the show.

Post-Show Hustle: Whew… The show has come to a close. What now? First, express gratitude toward the customer. Let them know how much you enjoyed spending time with them, and that you really look forward to doing it again. Shoot them an email through the site if they’ve already logged off. Check out this blog post on customer appreciation. Then, right-click on their name and jot down some notes on what you’ve learned. If you do this, the next time you encounter them, you’ll have the details of your last encounter fresh in your mind. This type of keen attention to detail will make them feel valued and memorable. This will definitely work in your favor.

Private Shows: Make Them Memorable (Part ONE)

Welcome! Let’s get you up to speed on making your private shows a memorable experience.

So a new customer has taken you private. Maybe it’s your very first time to go private. There will be a ton of questions bouncing around in your head before you even start performing. What do they want? How can I maximize my earning potential? How can I ensure they become regulars?

Don’t worry. In this article, we’ll give you some solid advice to guide you onward with your success. Ready? Let’s rock.

Tips for Success

The Greeting: Greet the customer in a friendly manner, and thank them for choosing you. It helps if you are enthusiastic about performing on cam, and appreciative that they chose you over all of the other models on the site. Trust me, an environment of inclusion is one a customer will want to frequent.

Ask Questions: It’s probably a good idea to not launch directly into performing. For starters, you won’t have an idea of what the customer wants. Start with small talk. Ask them about how their day is going, share something interesting about yourself. Let the conversation organically drift to the topic of sex. What you two talk about will provide valuable information you can use to create a stimulating show the customer won’t forget. However, if they push right away toward performance requests, do your best to adapt.

Cam2Cam: One of the best questions to ask is: ‘Do you have a camera?” Most successful performers will tell you that (since we’re on a Flirt4Free kick) Cam2Cam is a great way to make private shows more intimate. Simply said, Cam2Cam is when the customer can see you and you can see the customer. This level of engagement shows customers you’re interested in more than just what they type in the chat area. Some will be too shy to try, so don’t push if they don’t seem willing. But it never hurts to remind them of the option. Learn about Cam2Cam in this article from the official Flirt4Free blog (warning: NSFW).

Prepare Yourself: Some customers will give you a liberating creative freedom. Others will ask for something ultra-specific. Make sure you have the interactive toys, outfits, and other tools of the camming trade on hand. When a customer asks: “Do you have high heels and nipple clamps?” and you reply, “Yes, I happen to have them right here,” they’ll know they’re in the right place, and trust will blossom like flowers in the spring.

Light Up Your Cam! Tips for Better Webcam Lighting

When a customer enters your room, YOU are the first person they see. And, they see you as framed by your webcam, set against whatever background you’ve chosen, BUT they also see you (literally) by how you’ve lit your room. Ask any top cam model and they will tell you that great lighting is a necessity if you want to attract more customers to spend time in your room. Imagine if you, as a customer, entered a model’s room and that model was poorly lit — the shadows, the darkness, the blur. How would you feel? Would you want to tip that model? Would you want to take that model to private? How does the quality of a model’s lighting effect his or her live show? In this short article, we’ll dive into the basic, but incredibly effective 3-light setup, and hopefully, get you lit up better than you’ve ever been lit up before.

BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE PREVIEW!

Before you go live, really look at what you’re broadcasting. In all honesty, do you think you’re properly lit? Are your best features being accentuated? Are your lights too bright? Too dim? Sometimes, just by simply previewing yourself before you broadcast can solve the problem of poor lighting. It might be that you need one more lamp or to turn on an overhead light and your problem will be solved. Or, it could be that your light is way, way too bright against your skin. Turn it away from you. Tweak your light sources so you look just right.

THREE POINT LIGHTING, GET TO KNOW IT!  

Becoming a lighting expert is easier than you might think, but it does require a bit of thought. That said, it’s worth it. Let’s dive in.

Key Light: This light is the key that unlocks your beauty to shine. It’s your strongest light. Position it behind the camera. It faces toward you and it’s best to keep it at a 45 degree angle from you. That is, if you’re sitting facing your camera, you can place your key light in front of you and to the right. Experiment with how far it should be from you, because every light is different. Remember, key light equals BRIGHT.

Fill Light: This light “fills in” the shadows created by the key light. Position it behind your computer and to the left. That is, if you’re sitting facing the camera, you can place your fill light in front of you and to the right. Just like the key light, experiment with how far it should be from you. Every light is different. Don’t make the fill light as bright as the key light. That’s important. If you do this, there’s a good chance it’ll distort how your skin looks on cam.

Back Light: This light is best when kept behind you and out of the frame. This means, that the light should not be visible in your webcam. An overhead light would work fine. Or, a lamp on a high table. The purpose of this light is to light what’s behind you. It makes you appear more 3-D. It makes you come to life. This light should also be the dimmest of the three lights.

Test out these lighting tips in your room. Take some time to make things look and feel right. It could mean the difference between a good night and a GREAT night.

Got it? Great!

LIGHT UP YOUR CAM

Experiment with your lighting setup and you’ll reap the rewards! Truly. Proper lighting can make or break a broadcast. The better you light up your space, the more customers are going to want to step into your room and engage you in conversation. And, the better you’ll appear. Customers will want to see you. Make them want you. 

cammingOnce you find a great lighting setup that suits your broadcast space, play with it until you know it works well. Once you get to that point, you can work on experimenting with different locations around your broadcast space. Maybe you want to perform in the kitchen or in the shower. Maybe you want to do a show in the living room. Wherever you go, you’ll be able to properly get yourself lit and lit well. As broadcast possibilities expand so will your knowledge of how to light yourself.

Remember, your time on cam is a performance. You are the star and it’s important that you take the time to make your room into the best room on the site. Of course, your performance is key, but great lighting will always be “key” to making you light up like a sky full of shimmering stars.

So, onward, cam models! Keep doing what you’re doing and let’s all work to get better.

Interactive

INTERACT!

Being lively on cam is a good way to build rapport and enjoyment with your customers. If you ignore your room, your customers will probably become bored. Try it. See what happens. Ignore everyone in your room and watch your customers leave without saying goodbye. But, if you interact with them, let them know that they are there.

By doing so, it’ll help draw them into your room, and draw them into you as a professional cam model. They’ll remember how much fun they had in your room and are apt to come back for more. And, isn’t that what you want? Repeat customers. Keep in mind that as a cam model you have a larger than life presence in the mind of your audience. You are a star. You are “their” star. But wait… it gets better!

Interactive

The word “interact” doesn’t just mean that you should talk to and engage with your audience, it means that you also have the opportunity to truly become “interactive.” Have you tried using an interactive device on cam? Do you have any interactive devices?  If so, awesome! If not, why the heck not?! Interactive features allow customers to virtually “touch” you and, in some cases, for you to virtually “touch” them. If you have the means and the desire, by all means, go interactive. What a great feeling to receive a tip and feel it vibrating on your body. What a thrill to feel those tips rain down and light up your sensitive spots. And, what a thrill to be able to control a user’s device. In doing so, you’ll give that user an extreme amount of pleasure. 

So, as you go out into your cam rooms, consider how you are interacting with your room and, if you haven’t yet done so, consider adding an interactive device to the mix. It could make a world of difference in how your room grows and prospers.
