Taking that first leap into sharing your naughty bits online is an exhilarating and nerve-racking choice to make. From the most outgoing entertainers to the shy closet thrill seeker looking for a safe way to have fun, the one thing that remains true is that the first step onto the scene is indeed a little scary! Fear not! Everyone is different and handles this in their own way, and the important thing to remember is that going at your own pace is absolutely the right thing to do and do not feel as though you aren’t doing enough. The hardest part for some is deciding what kind of “smut” they want to “peddle”, as we have so many options available to us today. Being in the comfort of your own home and letting yourself have this kind of lifestyle will give you more than you ever thought possible, and by that, I mean beyond the money you make. Although sex work is work, and it is not for everyone, those who want to be a part of this wonderful world have so much opportunity ahead of them that they can slide right into everyday life without skipping a beat.
The assortment of platforms we have available to us today may seem overwhelming; rather, look at it as an opportunity to pick and choose what suits you most. You do NOT have to jump head first into the vast pool without knowing what is under the surface. Take a look into your own mind, weigh your options and always remember that doing this kind of work allows you to have the freedom to change your direction any time you like. Live cam, subscription-based services, video and photo creation and more! Content creation involves a lot of different pieces; you just have to decide what your puzzle looks like. One of the easiest ways to get that first piece of art created is by setting the camera up and taking some video of you doing whatever it is you like to do. Forget the camera is there, enjoy it and remember to relax. You can look through your videos/photos when you are done, edit them, delete them or simply take some notes on camera angles and lighting. This allows you to get the hang of filming while keeping the content totally private. You are the only one who can choose to push that upload button.
Playing around with it and practicing without the pressure of being live on cam gives you a nice advantage and a confidence that will shine through when (or if!) you decide to upload or go live. Knowing what makes you feel good and what gives you the look you want to achieve will make deciding what kind of platform to start with much easier.
Changing it up is not only a fun way to add flair to your NSFW world but also a wonderful way to bring in new fans! Drawing traffic from different types of platforms is always beneficial; having some teasers as free options on a tube site (which can also make you ad revenue!) is a fantastic way to let your fans window shop and also satisfy those pesky freeloaders who help in numbers for views but also want to ogle the goodies. Having a pay-per-minute/pay-per-text platform to go along with live streaming is also super helpful and gives your fans a chance to chat with you on a more intimate level. Utilizing a platform that has a feature like that can also help cut down on the endless messaging on social media! Although it is perfectly fine to start with only one platform, it is worth considering multiple kinds. The beauty of this industry is that you never have to be tied down, you can change your platforms, change your mind, add new services and take them away at your own will. You are always in control of where you handle your business and how!
At first, the attention and glam of it all can be overwhelming but also very exciting! Settling into your rhythm once the “New” feeling wears off is where a lot of people lose steam and become discouraged. It is important to remember that there will be ups and downs, but over time, you will learn how to change it up and adapt during the downtimes to turn it around. This is a very normal thing that happens, and there are a lot of factors that play into it. Don’t fret! As long as you keep your head up, stick with it and, most importantly, are still having fun, then you will never be disappointed in your decision to join the industry. The amount of resources and support that is available to us 24/7 is absolutely astounding! Never hesitate to reach out if you have questions or simply want to learn a few new tricks of the trade. There is always something new to learn! Networking with other creators is also a very helpful way to stay in check with the industry and to learn the never-ending tricks of the trade. Always trust your gut, keep it fun and stay true to yourself. You got this!
