Tips and Tricks for Camming
Having a hard time on cam? Some of these tricks and tips may help!
There’s millions of different ways to use your webcam as an adult performer. The most important? Whatever helps you have fun and makes you comfortable! But here’s some tips and tricks I learned through the years.
Games
What has helped me the most over the years? Games. Anything that involves chance or teasing you. For example, the idea that someone can win a prize by guessing a number in Keno (app on Chaturbate) or roll the dice in your room? It can be quite appealing to those who enjoy the gamble and chance games. I also like incorporating spanks or other actions that I enjoy but can be ‘teased’ with. They know I hate using the big paddle in back but you better believe that makes users pay more to have you use it! Spankathons and frequent apps/games in my room always help to keep things interesting, the teasing and laughter rolling, and my own boredom disappear.
Different sites have different options for games but if you aren’t a fan of their apps or programs, I recommend getting a game you can play while online such as Jenga or a card game. Hell…make your own spinning wheel! Having something interactive that you share with your fans can truly help time go faster and keep yourself and others entertained. If they aren’t responding? I enjoy throwing in an extra prize. For instance: “If you tip 25 and it’s not a prize on my wheel/keno I will give you a FREE video!” It adds to the gamble and sometimes gets things moving faster.
Keep your power
One of the hardest things I’ve faced during my time as a webcam model is: keeping my power. Once you start getting a good group of regulars in the room, you’re also inviting a different kind of user. One that can be helpful at first but can slowly take over if you aren’t careful. These users are few and far between but great to keep an eye out for. They will help at one point then cease to assist, assuming they are entitled to your time due to their previous efforts in your room. The users may try to change your prices, suggest how you should perform differently, and even ask for free things.
REMEMBER! This is YOUR room, YOUR kingdom. Do not allow anyone to take that power away from you. With one click of your mouse you can make anyone disappear and their entitlement leaves with them. Sometimes it’s hard to put your foot down, especially when a user has been helpful in the past but NO ONE should make you feel as though you owe them something in this industry. It’s yours to control.
The Online Backup Plan
So it’s slow and you want to burn the entire internet down. We all get there. The important thing? Have a slow back up plan. If you’re sitting there, staring at the throngs of people refusing to speak or tip it will only fuel that sadness or anger. I recommend having something you enjoy close by to entertain. I’ll throw on my favorite songs and dance around a little or work on my to-do lists. Some may complain the list making is boring to watch…I believe it’s far better than banning everyone and pulling my hair out. It makes time go by faster and during that time? Hopefully a regular comes by or talking begins, again!
Know your limits
My most important tip? KNOW YOUR LIMITS. If you are comfortable in your room and with yourself, it will shine through and they will notice. Have firm rules and don’t be afraid to flex that ban finger. This is your empire.
