5 Things I Wish I Had Known About Being A Webcam Model

If you’re reading this, chances are you’re contemplating becoming a webcam model and I want to prepare you for the journey ahead of you as much as possible because I never had this cheat sheet but thankfully you have me so here goes.

1) You have to fake confidence - a lot, especially when you’re just starting out. Unless you’re one of those really lucky girls with very high self esteem, surviving in the webcam modeling world requires a major dose of confidence and if you don’t have it, you have to fake it until you get it. Also, don’t bring your shitty attitude to work because clients come to you expecting to escape from their issues and the last thing they need is a model with a shitty attitude.

2) You can block out your hometown. Most parents will tell you they work hard to raise up girls who don’t end up on the stripper pole - or for the sake of this article, stripping on the web for cash so naturally most webcam models aren’t so keen to reveal to their kin what exactly they do for work. If you’re a model who wants to be discreet about her work, there are tools in place to black out certain countries and cities so your secret is safe and your folks and friends remain in the dark about exactly what you do for a living.

3) The client really is your boss. Truer words have never been spoken. Just like in a retail store where the customer is essentially the boss, your client -especially in your private room- is your boss. This may be your show but he is running it. He’s the director and whatever he says goes and your only job is to make sure his needs are met and he leaves your room completely satisfied and with empty balls!

4) Sometimes you have to do things you never thought you’d ever do. Because the client is calling the shots, sometimes he’ll want you to do things you’ve never imagined you’d be doing. You’ll come across a true freak who wants you to dress a certain way or say certain things that all may be new to you but remember points number 3 and number 1 above, the client is the boss and he gets to have his way and if you fake your confidence and do such a good job at whatever freaky thing he wants, you may just get a big tip out of it.

5) It’s a marathon not a sprint and the money won’t always make you happy. Most girls waltz into webcamming believing they are going to get rich overnight. The bad news is that is never the case. You will not get rich overnight. You probably won’t get rich three months into your webcamming gig but the good news is if you work really hard to build a decent client list, you will make a decent amount of money. My first six months as an amateur webcam model, I made a measly $700 total but that is because I wasn’t taking my gig seriously until I looked at what the other models where making and decided right there and then I would become one of the top earners on ChaturbateFreeCams.com. Today, I make a very decent amount of money and I only work three days a week!
