Time isn't what you think

When you are brand new you are excited to start camming on MFC!!!  You want to get on a lot and start making the money!!! After 4 days you realize you lost your new status and the are like wtf I thought I got 7 days of being new?

Let's say that a model cams July 5th, July 8th, July 12th and July 23rd.  That is 4 days right not 7?!?

The question the model should ask is what time did I cam?  Did I cam at 11pm PST to after 12am PST?  If yes then here are the 7 days.

July 5th becomes July 5th and 6th = 2 days
July 8th becomes July 8th and 9th = 2 days
July 12th becomes July 12th and 13th = 2 days

So far that is 6 days.  July 23rd becomes the 7th day.

So if you want to prolong your new status as far as possible you need to cam before 12am PST or after 12 am PST to keep it 7 actual broadcast days.

Why You Might Be Losing Money And Not Even Know It...

You are a cam model of MFC and doing group shows and pvts and true pvts, yet  You Might Be Losing Money And Not Even Know It...

One of the reoccuring things that I have seen as of late is that there are models that don't understand certain things that are affecting them financially.

1.   Setting a goal and then going else where

A lot of models set a goal for their public chat and then leave in the middle to do group shows or a pvt of some sort.  This is bad for 2 reasons.

Mathematically:
  

Pretend that a model is asking 2400 tokens to get naked.

Group Show: 10 tokens a min per person with 3 minimum to start (total 30 tokens a min)

                2400 divided by 30 = 80 minutes;  Assuming that no one enters the room or leaves that is how long a group show would have to last before you even think about getting topless.

Private Show: 60 tokens a min plus 10 tokens a min per spy

                2400 divided by 60 = 40 minutes; Assuming that no one spies that is how long a private show would have to last before you even think about getting topless.


True Private: 80 tokens a minute

                2400 divided by 80 = 30 minutes; That is how long a true private show would have to last before you even think about getting topless.


All these assume no one is tipping on top of what they are paying for a show.


Logically:  If you are asking for a countdown and you leave to go into a show you are screwing over the people that have contributed to the countdown and they won't want to come back and spend the money again.


2.   Whiteboard:

The problem with the whiteboard is that so many models put the attention on that rather then in the topic.  No one really reads the whiteboard.  Your topic should have the important elements to it NOT the whiteboard.  Most guys don't even read the whiteboard to look at your tip menu.  The other issue with the whiteboard is that it takes guys' eyes off of you.  You need to keep guys thinking with their penis and not with their brains.  The whiteboard keeps guys from looking at you and concentrating on what you want them to tip and gets guys to double guess if they should spend the money.

3.  Wasting a guy's money:

There are multiple ways that models start wastinga guys money, but the 2 that I find the most is Snapchat and Friend Adds.  If you are going to ask 600 tokens for Snapchat you should be using that daily and posting a lot of nudes.  At least 12 a day.

When you do Friend Adds it should take you 20-30+ minutes to reply to people on your friend list.  Your friends shouldn't have to send a message in public chat to check PMs.  Otherwise what was the point to spend the tokens if you aren't even going to reply.

Common Mistakes


I find there are a lot of common mistakes that both new and veteran models make.  Here are just a few of the mistakes I have found.

1. Not Holding to a Scheduled Appointment:

A lot of models make an appointment and then never show up for their appointment.  Life happens, but when it does you need to communicate with the person on the other side cause they are wasting time otherwise.  Have mutual respect for each other and show up to your scheduled appointments or communicate with people if things are going to change.

2.  Not Scheduling Skype Shows Before Camming:

When camming you should schedule all your Skype stuff before you cam.  Guys want to be able to spend time with you before you do your camming shows.  The worst thing you can do is cam for multiple hours then expect for guys to want to get a Skype show afterward.  A lot of guys don't want sloppy seconds.

3.  Leaving in the Middle of a Show:

If you are in the middle of a countdown another horrible offense is to leave in the middle of a show.  It is one thing if things are going really slow and you are leaving, but it is another to leave to do group shows and privates or even Skype.  Those shows are unpredictable when it comes to length.  Imagine if you are the guy that has tipped for stuff and the model left for pvt or something.  That guy is most likely not going to come back and spend money on you again.

4.  Pricing Pricing Pricing:

Pricing is an important part of the show.  A lot of models go with expensive pricing and expect guys are going to spend the money.  If you are looking for the big tipper then keep prices high, but if you want the average joe to spend money on you and a lot of guys to do that then you need to price accordingly.  I tell models all the time that they need to keep in mind their rank and their camscore when pricing things out.  The worst thing is when a guy feels like he has been ripped off.  If not going to use Snapchat that much then don't charge 500 tokens. Be fair and reasonable with your prices.

5. Trusting Wrong People

Often there are times that guys will help models and some guys are there to actually help and some don't actually want to help.  Look at a guys profile and don't listen to the roomers all the time.  This is a hard one cause sometimes roomers are started because models are jealous or competitors want people to think it is true and sometimes the roomers are real.  Talk to the person yourself and see for yourself if you can trust the person or if you would be trusting the wrong person.  Best thing you can do is go with your own instinct and not listen to others completely.  Take everything with a grain of salt.

Skype

Skype..... the Good.... the Bad..... the Truth about camming and Skype.

A lot of models ask me what is the difference between camming on MFC and doing Skype.  The major difference between doing MFC and Skype is guys know that models can see them and hear them on Skype if they want to be heard or seen.

The truth is most guys are hoping that when they buy a Skype show that the Skype show will go longer then what they paid for. 

The Good:

As a model, you have the right and ability to charge whatever it is you want to charge for Skype.  Some guys will pay more than the 80 tokens they would get charged for a True Private and some guys won't.  Also, you can do certain things on Skype that maybe you don't want to do on MFC or are against MFC rules.  Have a fetish that MFC won't let you do? Then Skype is the way to go.  Want to have sex with a guy on cam?  Same thing.

There are guys that you will find don't want sexual encounters, but would rather spend the time talking to you and getting to know the real you.  Skype gives you the freedom to set the price you see fit that you think would be fair.  As I said some guys will pay more and some will pay less.

MFC true pvt for anal?  80 tokens a min.  Skype for anal?  100 tokens a minute.  Specialty shows are worth more so why not get paid for it.

The Bad:

So you go into Skype and now you have to keep track of how long the show is going.  That can be inconvenient at times.  Not attracted to the guy or not enjoying it on MFC you can end it without there being a major loss of tokens, but Skype you are stuck with what you see.

Some models have told me that guys can track your location through Skype.  There is always a risk with what you are doing.  If you do Amazon wishlist and someone buys from a third party they can get your address that way too.


Final Thought:

Models complain that they get scammed from guys cause of Skype, but the reason for that is that they are taking alternative payments rather than sticking with tokens.  Skype has its issue, but can also be rewarding and can help you gain a bigger following or fan base.  I have known models who have made bank doing Skype shows.

Make the choice you feel most comfortable with.  You can do Skype shows as a date raffle only, doesn't mean you are doing Skype shows all the time.  Do what you feel is right and is going to help you be safe and succeed.

Guilty by Proxy

There is a concept in the real world and in the cam world called Guilty by Proxy.  This is a concept a lot of cam models I have been talking to don't understand.  The concept is an easy one and so I am going to break it down.

If in a state where smoking weed is illegal and you are driving a car.  If a passenger in your car starts smoking weed and your car gets pulled over you will go to jail or face some kind of charge.  This is called Guilty by Proxy.  You may not have been the one smoking the weed, but you are guilty cause you are associated with that person.

Who you associate with both on cam and off cam matters.  If a model has a reputation of screwing guys over and taking random long breaks in the middle of a show and you cam with her your reputation will tarnish.  Who you cam with matters. 

A lot of models will only cam with models that have similar camscores or someone they know that has the same abilities or mindset.  Don't associate with someone who has a bad reputation cause you are Guilty by Proxy then.  Sometimes this is tough cause that person could be your best friend but they could also tarnish what you are trying to do.

Why Don't My Videos Pop?!?

Why Don't My Videos Pop?!?  So you took my advice and started shooting at 4K or 1080P, but you feel like your videos still don't pop.  Why?

1) What fps are you shooting at?  FPS?  FPS is frames per second.  The higher the fps the better the quality.  The highest fps before getting into slow motion that you always want to shoot at is 60 fps.

2) Camera.  Are you using a webcam or are you using an actual camera that can shoot at 60 fps and always stay at 60 fps?  An actual camera will always be better vs a webcam.  The downside to this is that a high-quality camera will run you about $600 or more to do this.

3) Lighting.  Lighting is very important when it comes to making videos pop or in general cause you don't want them to appear dark.  ALL models should be using a lighting system already.  A great lighting system will run you about $50 or more.  When using a lighting system especially with videos you want to first be in a room where it is completely dark and you cannot see anything.  When the lighting is set up that becomes the only light source.

4) Post production.  This one is hard to explain, but there are plenty of YouTube bloggers that will talk about this and how to do it.  Personally, I use Adobe Premiere Pro CC and have used that in both my personal life and my MFC life.  You have to sign up for a year subscription and it will run you about $30 a month.

All these things combined should bring your videos to the next level.

Video Size

I see models not knowing the actual difference between 4K, FULL HD, and Semi-HD.

Cinema 4K = 4096 x 2160 (this may vary) = 4.27 times bigger than FULL HD

4K = 3840 x 2160 = 4 times bigger than FULL HD = 9 times bigger than Semi - HD

FULL HD (1080p) = 1920 x 1080 = 2.25 times bigger than Semi HD

Semi-HD = 1280 x 720

More pixels allow for more detail.  So when making videos you should keep in mind that videos should be produced at minimum FULL HD.  Why?  If you go to BestBuy or other electronic stores 4K TVs are becoming the norm.  Therefore the quality that one produces should be FULL HD at minimum since 4K is already 4 times bigger than FULL HD.
