Webcam modeling is one of those unique and special careers that presents a wealth of opportunities, and best of all, uncapped income.
For open-minded females seeking to eliminate money worries and achieve financial prosperity, it might just be the best job in the world (for many, it already is).
With a clear objectives, vision, goals and proactive mindset, any aspiring cam model can overcome the headaches and uncertainly caused by financial struggles and chart their path to financial prosperity.
With my experience-based methods, you will be able to make sense of money issues, brainstorm how to break out of them, and set goals to overcome existing or predicted financial burdens that are holding you back.
Think of this like your own personal business plan! The end game is to eliminate financial struggles and achieve prosperity as a webcam model!
The Rich Pickings of the Webcam World
Cam modeling is more than just being sexy for tips and tokens. It is a fruitful business that many savvy, goal-orientated women choose to build their entire livelihood upon. For a decade, I have done exactly that.
This fast-growing industry offers so many diverse ways to monetize your creative talents. You can create content and learn a multitude of performance-based and chat-based skills that can be highly lucrative.
For women who decide academic careers are not for them, and are more comfortable expressing their sexual side for money, the opportunities to earn life-changing money in adult camming are are limitless.
While there may be thousands of cam models out there shaking their stuff already; there is always room for more!
Don't be put off by this if you're considering this line of business as long-term career, or even just as a means to improve your financial situation in the short to medium term.
By nature this is a high turnover industry, with hundreds of new members (including big spenders) as well as new models joining every week.
Cam site members love variety and never get bored of meeting new cam models!
Keep in mind that it's a journey and every day and week is different. You are guaranteed to meet an abundance of potential new fans (including good tippers), every time you log on to cam!
If you are:
Struggling with paying bills,
Not earning enough in your existing job,
Need to get out of debt,
Finding yourself living as a single mother,
Trying to save for a car/house,
Needing to find your own financial independence so you're not reliant on a partner to survive,
...the rich pickings of the webcam world could very well be the answer to your prayers!
A little on my background and journey into the industry...
My original motive for starting cam modeling was having a baby and not wanting to go back to leaving the house for work.
I was previously working as an exotic dancer in the glamorous West End of London, out of the house through the nights until 7am.
The thought of going back to dancing was most daunting and depressing, given that I was breastfeeding, exhausted, generally wiped out as a new mum.
The fund of cash I had built up in my bank account was being depleted and there was an urgent and pressing need to earn money.
I realised my 15 years spent as an exotic dancer was now a sensational chapter of my former life and my needs and priorities had changed.
No more late nights sipping Dom Perignon partying and shaking my titties at Premier League footballers, rock stars, rappers and TV media personalities!
I was now to be a humble stay-home mum, pale and exhausted, breastfeeding every two hours, my heart full of love...
What had not changed was the issue of still needing to make money on a continual basis. In fact, my need was greater than ever before!
I thought long and hard about the idea of webcamming. With all my experience of teasing for tips on stages and one to one private dances, I felt sure would have the confidence to tease men for money on cam.
After all, it couldn't be a lot different to chatting and flirting with them for money in the club. The difference with camming is that it is socially distanced over the internet, and would be a lot safer. Even better, I would not have to pay house fees whether or not I made money!
I would be there for my baby and have no feelings of guilt about missing out on his precious early days, weeks, months and years.
So... I signed up for a cam model account. My plan was to log on and work while my new adorable dependent napped. Two hours here and two hours there, this is how I started.
Fast forward a decade and my life has evolved significantly, and it is so magnificently enriched!
I still work on cam, and I still enjoy it.
I log on during school hours and for longer sessions when my son stays with grandparents on sleepovers.
Thanks to being a cam model, I live a comfortable, secure, flexible, free-spirited and prosperous life as a freelance working mother.
This industry has helped me to reach many major life goals including buying a house, buying a brand new car, putting my son in the best private education, enjoying breath-taking travel experiences, investing money in starting a business, saving money and building a pension fund, never having to stress about covering bills, and so much more!
I give myself a hearty old slap on the back in appreciation for my robust self-discipline and persistence in this industry over 10 years. What a journey.
This industry can be your golden ticket to prosperity, too. I can't wait to explain how can build your own financial prosperity pipeline as a cam model!
Let's make a start on YOU and what YOU need to do to get there...
BE CLEAR OF YOUR OBJECTIVES
First of all, have a think about your financial situation and what is is that's bothering you or making you feel you're lacking financially. What's the pain point(s)?
This is the start of the planning process. You'll need to do a lot of thinking about this, to help bring clarity to the situation and start to make an action plan (it's fun to think of this as your own type of personal business plan).
For example:
Are you a mother and need to earn flexible income from home to support your family?
Are you stressed trying to meet loan or credit cards payments?
Do you need to earn more money each month to not only cover bills, but live a better life generally?
Do you need to earn £XXX amount more a month to be able to afford to buy and run a car?
Do you need to raise £25,000 as a deposit to move out of a current living situation that's not serving you well, and make a start on the property ladder?
Do these things:
Identify specific issue(s), and trust me when I say if you tackle it head on, you can easily improve your financial situation and become prosperous.
Envision earning enough money to resolve those issues. This will get you into an excited and productive money-making state of mind.
Strengthen this prosperity thought process by thinking about what achieving financial freedom means to you in the long term. What problems will it prevent later on, and how can you see your life changing for the better?
Visualise the outcomes, in colourful pictures. The people, the places, the emotions, the celebration, and how empowered you'll be once prosperous!
Document your thoughts as a creative flow to bring the vision to life.
Some suggestions:
Use a journal or planner to make notes as bullet points (simple way)
Brainstorm your objectives and visions as a word cloud (simple way))
Make a funnel or pyramid chart putting things in order of priority (technical, structured)
Sketch ideas for solutions and future prosperity dreams as pictures (dreamy)
Write down motivational quotes that relate to your prosperity goals (powerful)
Cut and stick pictures or craft things aligning with your visions in a scrapbook (dreamy)
Use post-it notes and a pin board (simple and effective)
Scrapbooking is something I've had fun with over the years, finding images in magazines that align with my visions, cutting and sticking and flicking through these often to keep me hungry for achieving my goals.
It may sound geeky by I also enjoy making pyramid or funnel charts, with goals ordered in priority, key points relating to the goals, timescales and projections. That might sound a bit technical but it's a creative process that works for me.
I also love brainstorming and doodling word clouds, adding motivational quotes, highlighting them in colour or adding oversized speech marks.
Choose a method which suits you! Be imaginative and express your prosperity desires as this is an important part of the creative thought process which leads to prosperity.
The physical and visual elements of documenting really work as they make things seem so tangible. These methods can also be added to as you go along, or you and try new methods to see which resonates best.
Top Tip: Factor in some realistic timescales with a reward or celebration at the end. You could do this as numbered goals or as a hierarchy style chart, putting things in order of priority or as short, medium and long term goals.
You'll find doing this highly motivating and also relaxing!
I still creatively document regularly myself at times I need to plan out a financial goal that I intend to use my work to achieve.
What I especially love about this...
The creative process aways helps me to set the intention.
I am able to figure out the workflow process more clearly.
Putting timescales down in writing ensure I do not procrastinate or snooze on the idea.
Take as long as you need to fulfil this exercise. Do it over hours, days or weeks, until you feel you have a strong vision for financial prosperity that makes you feel motivated and ready to take action.
Top Tip: Refer back to your documented creative flow as a daily reminder of your mission to fulfil. This will help you keep going!
SET FINANCIAL GOALS
Having worked out what needs addressing and painting that vision for successful prosperity outcome(s), the next step is to set specific financial goals.
These need to be realistic and they need to be achievable. If they're not, you'll be at risk of overwhelm and struggling to fulfil the financial prosperity outcomes that will change your life for the better.
I find a good way is to break down bigger financial goals into chunks, target income figures quarterly for example.
The income figures need to be specific to cover specific costs in your objectives, and you should add the figures to your journal notes/scrapbook.
You could even pop them on a calendar or in a diary so you can relate them to specific date targets.
This heightens the sense of self-discipline. Deadlines bring a sense of pressure - which is a productive state to be in.
Specific income figures may be difficult to define at first, but you'll get used to it in time and eventually be able to plug figures out of thin air, the same way I do.
To begin the process, I suggest you ask yourself questions that make you think clearly about specific amounts of money.
For example:
How much money do you need to earn as your target income per week, per month or per year, to help you reach your goals?
What do you need as your bare minimum base income to cover all your overheads? (more about how to work this out in Step 7).
What amount of money will solve financial issue(s) you need to resolve, and in what timescales?
How much income do you want to see in that savings account you're about to open, one year from now? How about two, or five years from now? (I highly recommend opening a savings account even if you only have £50/$50 to put in to start with, as this helps to set the intention).
What amount of surplus income do you need to have as disposable income each month, after paying taxes?
These are all highly thought-provoking questions to help with the money target defining process. It is how you put financial value on short, medium and long term financial goals that are going to change your life for the better.
BUILD A STRONG IDENTITY
With objectives, vision and financial goals set... it's time to get to work and tap into that uncapped earning potential to become financially prosperous!
It's yours for the taking - so what to do now?
Build a strong identity!
Your identity and niche will help grow your popularity and shape your success.
Top Tip: It is very important to get to work on building your identity imminently, because establishing a strong identity will help you stand out amongst thousands of other cam models.
Having a strong identity attracts a dedicated fan base of members who will become your regular supporters and tippers.
Be sure to:
Carve out a niche and make it unique.
Work on your skills and flaunt your most appealing traits.
This is how you build a compelling cam model identity which will see you on a self-assured pathway to ever-increasing income.
Top Tip: Use all available features to design shows that align with your niche. Set custom tips, sell content and encourage members to "buy into" your appeal with subscription-based services.
Those income goals and targets you noted down in that journal... enjoy watching those being met each week, month and year!
PUT THE WORK IN
"The future and all prosperity belongs to the disciplined and persistent... so be disciplined and persistent!"
Fact: We never reach our financial goals without taking positive action every week towards achieving them!
It's not rocket science. I always harp on about the need for being persistent when cam models come to me complaining that it always feels slow in their cam room.
Being flaky, doing one hour then logging of, being there one week and not the next, does not cut it in this industry.
This is a serious job and income source. If you wish to be one of the hustle Queens making the big pay-outs week on week on cam, you have to learn to be self-disciplined and persistent.
Keep referring back to your journal of objectives, visions, goals and income targets daily to help you stay on track!
To achieve a high level of success, I'm not even talking about grinding out 30+ hours a week full time on cam.
I have never worked full time on cam. I've only ever been a part time cam model, working just 16 or 20 hours a week online.
I've made those part time hours very lucrative by building a strong identity and persona. Appealing to a certain type of member and monetising them very well.
Having personally enjoyed a number of years of earning 6-figures-a-year on cam as a part timer, I can vouch for the fact it's realistic and achievable.
If I can, you can!
16 hours a week is a good schedule of hours to aim for, as you should not find this overwhelming or leading to burnout.
You can choose a schedule that fits around any other job you have, or important duties like caring for your children if you have them.
Top Tip: Publish your schedule of camming hours and be sure to stick to it. This is how you build mutual loyalty with fans. If you're consistent, they'll be consistent in return.
Persistence, combined with discipline, is the driving force which solves those financial issues and smashes those prosperity goals!
CONNECT WITH YOUR AUDIENCE
A loyal fan base is key to for ongoing financial success in webcam modeling, so make them feel connected.
Engage with them through interactive chat, social media, and personalized content. Do this ever week and you'll keep them "on your hook" and spending money regularly.
Top Tip: Always respond to fan messages so they feel valued and their support is appreciated. This leads to increased tips and subscriptions.
The more effort you make to build a stronger the connection with your audience, the more likely they are to reciprocate support you financially.
Don't be shy to share some of your financial objectives with them, but never reveal anything too personal. For example, let them know you're keen to buy a car, or save for a deposit for a property, and you'll be surprised how supportive they are, rooting for you.
You'd be surprised how many good guys on cam sites who want to see their favourite cam models success and achieve their dreams.
I have met many in my time and they've made such a positive impact on my financial situation - in the bigger picture - improving prosperity for my family in the short, medium and long term.
INVEST IN YOUR SKILLS
Staying competitive and profitable in the the fast-paced world of webcam modeling industry means continually improving your skills.
Top Tip: Consider investing time (and a little money if needed) in courses relating to performance, marketing, or content creation to enhance the quality of your content.
Doing things such as taking an online class in video editing can improve the production value of your streams, making them higher quality and as such, more appealing to fans.
The more polished your skills as a cam model - be these skills in self-promotion, online chat presentation, self-styling, media production or sexual performance skills - the better quality members you'll attract who will monetise your assets.
Like always attracts like, so to make a lot of money you need to level up and appeal to the members who have a lot of money to spend!
Top Tip: Tweak the documenting in your journal/scrapbook as you grow and evolve as a cam model. This is how to keep levelling up and opening up more opportunities to limitless income!
MANAGE FINANCES WISELY
This will probably seem like the boring part. But do not under-estimate its importance!
To achieve financial freedom and maintain it, careful money management is essential.
Track your earnings, be watchful of expenses and make provisions to save some money rather than spend everything you receive in each pay out.
Budgeting is sensible, and this can be done in simple terms by using a journal or online spreadsheet in Excel for example.
Note down all essential costs - such as rent, utility bills, any applicable taxes related to your accommodation, costs relating to running a car or any pets you have, an amount you need for the weekly food shop, etc.
Aim to set aside at least 20% - of all weekly or monthly income for paying income taxes, and prioritise the allocation of funds you need towards your goals.
Ringfence 10% of the remainder - for savings or a pension fund so you can start building up a nest egg for when you're older.
See what you have left over - as surplus or "disposable" income. This is what to put by for enjoying life's luxuries such as holidays, nights out, lunches with the girls, and maintenance - hair, nails, makeup etc.
Keeping track of these figures helps you to see exactly where you're at week on week or month on month. It also enables you to see where you need to be more diligent in terms of expenditure, and what you can afford to be more extravagant with once in a while.
Sharp financial management and documentation of figures will help you stay on track to meet your goals. It is also a smart way to figure out how much extra money you need to earn to meet your goals quicker.
BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AND YOU'LL BUILD PROSPERITY AS A CAM MODEL
How to instil self-belief? Here's my way!
I help myself to believe in myself with a daily pep talk!
I talk to myself when getting ready to work on cam!
I'll be putting on makeup or looking through outfits to choose what to wear, muttering to myself.
"You can do it, girl!"
"You got this, girl!"
"Almost at target, keep going!"
"Get the job done, you're killing it!"
...etc etc.
Giving myself a talking to, and most of all during those tough times like slower weeks on cam or times when I feel tired, pre-menstrual or not really in the mood to cam, is what self-motivates me!
A pep-talk to reassure myself I am a professional in this industry.
A pep-talk to assert me to believe that no matter what, I will make money.
So...
I tell myself I am going to slay!
I remind myself I am not going to be happy with myself if I fail to reach my goals.
I think about what I'd miss out on, or have to sacrifice if I don't reach my goals.
I instruct myself to take action today.
I tell myself copping out is not an option.
I highly recommend you do all of this too!
It fires up the mental self-programming needed to stay focussed on your motives - which is to eliminate those financial struggles - and achieve financial prosperity.
Achieving financial prosperity as a cam model is within reach! You just need a clear set of objectives, vision and goals, and to maintain a motivated, believing, disciplined mindset to keep taking action!
I hope my guidance helps. I firmly believe that if you embrace this prosperity journey as I have done, you will reach your goals as I have done (and continue to do)!
Your financial struggles will soon be something you'll look back on with a satisfied smile... It was all part of your journey!
You'll reflect and feel grateful for the journey, which taught you to become more focussed and more powerful as a financially prosperous business woman on cam - because that's exactly what you are!
