Today we meet ELM’s LexDollface.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

I was referred by a co-worker a couple years ago to another site. Once I got a taste for how fun it is to be your own boss and fulfill such unique fantasies, I knew I was in the right place.

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

I do lots of solo & fetish as well as straight sex.

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

I would say most my income is from custom content requests. I absolutely love hearing new ideas and don’t mind a challenge every once in awhile either

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

Of course there is always the fear that a family member would come across my pictures/videos but I realized this is MY life and I have to trust that my family would support whatever makes me happy. I’m a mature adult with a strong sense of self and believe life is too short not to share your booty!

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

Using different social media platforms is always helpful but I honestly believe by putting out quality work and just being yourself can build quite the following on it’s own.

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

I would say the quantity of unique fetishes and custom requests. There are some fetishes I’d never even heard of that I now partake in on a regular basis. I’m always learning!

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

Be yourself! You are special and the buyers will appreciate that. Don’t do anything you aren’t comfortable with and most importantly, just have fun. You can expose as much or as little about yourself, it’s all up to you!

Today we meet ELM’s Wetsassykitty.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

I decided to create a page on ELM after becoming bored with my phone sex job. I’ve been on ELM for about almost a year now.

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

I focus on all sorts of content. There’s nothing I love more than a challenge, so taking on fetishes or activities I’ve never done before is refreshing.

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

Most of my income comes from photo set sales and or sexting.

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

I had hesitations at the beginning about doing videos; especially solo videos. Because I generally am a shy person as it is. It helped to practice camming and video taping before sending any clips or shows.

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

I really don’t promote myself too much, it’s more of a hobby that I want attention from.

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

Definitely the fetishes out there…but I’ve always been an excellent student.

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

Remember that quality over quantity goes a long way with members looking to find a unique experience.

Today we meet ELM’s xSnowwhitex.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

I actually have wanted to be in the adult entertainment industry in some way for as long as I can remember!! I just never knew where to begin. I actually ended up working with someone when I was working retail who was a cam girl and she introduced me to it and the rest is sort of history (rather recent history

) I’ve been at it for a little over a year now.

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

I honestly do all different types of content. I’m a very sexual being so I like to explore all different fetishes, and kinks you never know what could be your new favorite thing!!

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

Personally I make most of my income from live shows or financial domination sessions.

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

The only real hesitation I ever had with camming was I didn’t know if it was a legitimate thing or not since all I had ever seen were ads, but once I talked to someone personally who had experience with camming my hesitation was laid to rest!

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

I have found that the best way to promote is to just put yourself out there as much as possible! Put your content on multiple sites so people can always find you, and really keep up on your social media that’s a big one!

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

This is going to sound sooooo ignorant but the thing I’ve learned about this industry is that it is hard work!! Very fun and very rewarding but hard work none the less!

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

The most important thing is to not focus so much on the money aspect and just have fun with it. If you’re starting this career just for money then I would suggest a different career. You really have to be passionate about what you’re doing or you come off as being phony and nobody likes that!!

Today we meet ELM’s BondageBunny23.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

I’ve been interested in adult work since I was 17 years old but I didn’t get involved with adult work until I was about 19 years old. I haven’t sold photographs or videos but as of January 29th 2017 I took the step to begin selling my products.

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

At this moment my products are all solo. I would like to branch out to fetish, straight, gay, rough, etc. My personal fetishes are widely ranged and I’d love to show those off on film and in photos as well.

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

I would imagine that most of my adult work profit will come from my videos and my photos.

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

Hesitations I had was if my family ever found my videos or if in the future my kids find them. I was able to get over my hesitation with the encouragement of my friends, knowing that the majority of my family do not look at adult content, and even random strangers telling me how well I would sell adult work.

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

I am in many groups on Facebook that are 18+ and I’ve started to send my link to ELM to them and some close friends of mine.

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

So far I’ve noticed how difficult it is starting out with promoting yourself, but mostly I’ve come to learn that other sellers are very encouraging of other sellers.

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

Don’t be afraid to sell your content! If you are insecure about your body, it doesn’t matter because there will be a large group of people that want to see you work your magic!

Today we meet ELM’s Cassiahoneybee.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

I’ve always been a participant in the sugar baby lifestyle. I love power play, and the exchange of goods and deeds fits my bill perfectly. When I realized people would pay for my time, I started passing out my number. That was about 6 months ago. Starting three years back, I sold sticky panties to men through Craigslist. I had so many panties!! It was amazing, I end up on a two week vacation to Oahu with the profit.

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

I like to do fantasy work. It’s best for me when a guy comes to me with a plan or some interesting role play scenario. I love the fetish and BDSM community.

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

Meeting with people makes up the majority of my income at this time. I just started getting into selling photos and videos, and I am having a lot of fun! Better keep your eyes out for new stuff to cum

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

I have a big sense of shame in following my desire. I want to make my work a thing of passion, and only do jobs that interest me. There are a lot of people who want my time, and they’re willing to pay for it, so I am learning to be selective.

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

I talk about myself constantly. I will mention every account I have when I’m talking. You wanna find me on Tumblr? FetLife? KaufMich? Euro Girls? Peppr? Look me up! Cassia Bea or CassiaHoneyBee, I have an amazing social media department<3

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

People are willing to wait for perfection. As a cutie nympho, I thought that lust was an instantaneous force. I was flattered when a man told me he would save up to make his fantasy come true with me! I’m really excited to work with him again.^^

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

If a man is asking for something, he should be paying for it!

Today we meet ELM’s Knotty.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

I am still very new to camming and selling content. Before this for about 8 months I was a stripper / escort on secondlife.com. I have only been camming and selling content about a month so far but I am enjoying every minute of it! I have wanted to get into it for a couple years and finally decided to go for it!

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

I am focusing on solo fetish work. I am submissive and have been into the lifestyle for 3 years so I am just being myself and playing that role so far. But I would like to try to get into being a online dom.

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

Right now it’s camming and private Skype shows. But I am starting to market my content more so we will see if that changes.

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

Like most I think I was worried about my job but I am trying to get into this full time hopefully. And screw anyone that has an issue with it. I’m having fun doing this, making decent money so far, and that’s all that matters.

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

I use Twitter, Facebook, Fetlife, my own bondage blog (which gets a ton of traffic), and Tumblr.

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

I don’t think anything about the industry has really surprised me. I am used to different fetishes and I find it interesting to learn about new ones all the time. I expected it to be hard work since it is basically owning your own business and I have done that before. The most surprising thing in all of this is how supportive my boyfriend is about it.

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

I don’t think I’m qualified to give tips but let’s see; do your research beforehand! I have been researching this industry for 3 years. Know what you’re getting into before you get into it. Watch other cam girls to get a feel for how it works.

Today we meet ELM’s AtomicCupcake1.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

It started out with me selling my dirty panties on a few occasion, on Craigslist, just to make some extra while I was in nursing school and that was around 2010-2011. Then sometime in 2015 I got the urge to sell again, so I started by selling my dirty panties again. Soon after, I had met and became friends with several other girls who were wanting to learn the ropes and go into business themselves so another friend and I both decided to start an online group where we added all of these others and we started teaching them what we knew. It was at this time that I also started venturing out and selling other things, such as pics, videos, chat, sexting, Kik gf experiences and several other custom requests I received. I also had gained a couple of sugar daddies! My group had soon became a close-knit group where we all exchanged tips and ideas and even helped each other make sales by referring a customer with a certain request to one of the other girls, if the request wasn’t something we felt comfortable with doing ourselves. So here I am today still working my hardest to give these handsome, generous men exactly what they are wanting!

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

I started out selling while I was still with my ex in an extremely dead marriage. So I had no choice but to only offer solo work, even though I really wished I could make content involving a man as well. But now I have moved on and am engaged to the love of my life, and he’s always more than happy to do work with me! I like to stay pretty open minded about any and all requests and I’m always up for doing anything at all that I’m comfortable with. And I love getting new requests that I’ve never gotten before and testing myself to see just how well I can deliver.

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

Without a doubt, most of my income comes from a sugar daddy relationship or the Kik gf experience relationships I offer. I’ve still yet to do camming but I hope to get into that soon, and then hopefully that will bring in a good amount as well.

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

I’d have to say my biggest hesitations were the thought of someone I personally know coming across my content one day but mostly it was my exaggerated insecurity I have of myself, concerning my physical appearance and extreme shyness. But one day I just said, “screw it.” If someone I know happens to see any of my content, then I can only respond with, “Well what were you doing on that site in the first place?!” And as far as my insecurities go… Well, I’m STILL trying to get over those.

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

I post a ton of ads several times a week on the several different social media sites I’m on, and I post all about what I do on my profile on said sites. I also join a lot of group forums on these sites and interact with everyone as much as I can to get my name out there and so people will recognize me and engage with me.

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

That it’s actually surprisingly easy and very natural to have both my kinky lifestyle where I work in the adult industry, and still juggle my vanilla life where I’m a housewife and homeschooling my kids.

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

Do your homework and educate yourself on every aspect of this kind of work before you just go jumping in. Always stay open-minded and never judge others for their interests. Also, don’t go into this trying to compete with other sellers. We all are in this to make others happy and to provide entertainment. This isn’t a competition. There are plenty of opportunities to make good money if you just willingly apply yourself. And most importantly, stay true to yourself! Only do what YOU are comfortable with doing and don’t ever feel bad if you have to turn down someone’s request because it isn’t a task that you feel comfortable with doing. And there will be times when you come across a rude customer, just as you would in any other profession. Don’t let them get to you though. You’re a strong and magnificent person, and don’t you forget that! <3

Today we meet ELM’s Brielle221.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

❤ I started out actually high-end escorting in a really nice city-Saratoga Springs. I don’t know if anyone’s ever heard of it. I’ve been doing it for a while probably seven years. I’ve been working in the adult industry in general all sorts of different things, to be honest, the main thing that got me interested it’s because I’m a people pleaser not in a bad way but a good way and I like that doing this makes people happy if that makes any sense. hahaha

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

❤ Honestly I do mix of everything. I mostly do solo work but fetishes are fun too. I’m pretty much down for anything.

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

❤ Well now here is the thing, I am actually very new to using a website to sell my videos. I used to post on different ad sites that I made videos to sell and it was different because I would make the video super personal, send it directly to them. Right now I’m learning how to use the website a little bit more everyday but most of my money actually comes from live interaction like in person.

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

❤ I really didn’t have any hesitations. I almost grew up in this lifestyle as weird as that may sound but I had no hesitations at all.

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

❤Just becoming well-known from “word of mouth”, that’s about it.

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

❤Actually not that easy; it’s quite stressful to set up appointments with people.

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

❤Just make sure that it’s something you want to do. Be safe, never give out your information to anyone even if you think you trust them and most of all rejection is normal, don’t ever take it personal.

Today we meet ELM’s Nymphomaniac.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

Hi, I’m Lexy, I’ve been a webcam model and content provider for over 6 years now. I started working in a studio but just like many other models I found that doesn’t give me the freedom to be myself and really enjoy what I do, so soon after I became independent.

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

Though I started as a completely vanilla model, in the last 4 years I got more and more into the fetish world so now I offer almost anything from vanilla (masturbation and teasing) to a lot of different fetishes and BDSM. I enjoy everything as long as it’s legal and doesn’t exceed anyone’s limits. I am rarely able to offer MF videos, most of my work is SOLO.

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

Most of my income still comes from camming on mainstream sites (Chaturbate, MyFetishLive, Youkandy and others) and doing Skype shows with Skyprivate, but custom content income is a really big part of it too. I really enjoy personalizing videos to your liking and making sure you will enjoy every second of it. I also sell pre-made videos, so far I recorded over 150 videos and you can find most of them on ELM. I’m pretty bad at keeping track of what videos I have up and what I still need to upload though..updating my stores is a chore I don’t like.

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

The only hesitation I had is that I will suck at this but as soon as I started all that went away. When you see men appreciate you the way you are and spending their money on you, that’s easy to overcome.

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

Since I am active on a lot of camsites and content selling sites, the way I keep everyone up to date with what happens is on Twitter. That’s where I let everyone know when I’m online and where, share photos with them, let them know about new content and so on.

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

Unfortunately I found that there are a lot of men thinking cam models are naive or stupid and trying in various ways to scam us. They go through great lengths to do that, creating multiple accounts, sending fake gift cards and fake tips, making a chargeback right during the show, etc. Luckily for us there are also very nice customers that not only don’t try to negotiate but also tip us extra when they like our work and leave nice reviews.

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

Speaking from experience I can advice new models to never let others tell them what they’re worth and never give anything away for free. Decide what you wanna make and stick with your prices, you’re your own boss and if you don’t feel your time is worth you’re not gonna enjoy and give a good show. Also, there are a lot of different types of sites out there so you might wanna try a few until you find the right one for you. A great way to research information about sites is on camgirl forums (not sure if I can give names? if I can, wecamgirls.com ). It’s also a great way to make friends in the same business and have someone to chat with about cam related stuff. Another tip is to give it time. Be patient. Some days will be slow on cam, but if you give up you might miss that one customer that was about to make your day.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

I am very new to adult work. A good friend suggested that I would be great at it, so I figured it was worth a shot!

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

I enjoy making fantasies a reality.

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

So far I’ve sold one custom video.

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

I was concerned about my privacy/safety but by making my alter ego (MistressMuffy) and being careful not to reveal too much, I feel I took the necessary measures to protect myself.

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

I’ve been using Twitter and Instagram (MistressMuffy).

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

The thing that surprised me most was just how many different types of fetishes there are!

Today we meet ELM’s Kittysplaypen.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

I have been working in and out of the adult industry since I was 19 years old. I started out as a stripper, honestly out of need. I needed some money! Luckily I found that I really enjoyed the work! The best part about it was 1. I got to listen to music I loved 2. I learned how to dance and use a pole like nobody’s business, and 3. Learned that with hard work and dedication and a lot of practice, I could learn anything. I walked into that club a clumsy, clueless, never worn heels, never danced, tripping all over the place, little girl; and walked out a truly put together dancing goddess!
During this time I started experimenting with camming as I was getting a little tired of working at night all the time and wanted more flexibility in my schedule. I really didn’t have much idea as to what I was doing and wasn’t very experienced sexually at the time. I was no virgin but I hadn’t come in to myself yet, I had been having average sex at this point, I’d never had that WOW moment. It would be several years before I started to stretch out my sexual wings. I originally worked for a cam studio around the age of 20/21 and learned the ropes. I built a solid client base and knew I could count on making a solid paycheck no matter what. After staying with the studio for a while I decided to take a break and had a string of “vanilla jobs” for a few years.

At 23 I came back to camming when a beautiful studio opened up near me. I made $160 my first 4 hour shift, needless to say I was very happy, but I still had not found myself sexually. I stayed with the studio for a little while and in that time met the love of my life. He supported us for the next year and I spent that time finding myself and jumping his bones! Exploring sex with my incredible new partner gave me an entirely new perspective on sex and what I liked. Correction, loved! Realizing I was bisexual and very interested in all kinds of kink (starting with BDSM and going from there to more sub genres).

Finally, at the age of 26, having had many sexual escapades and able to understand my inherent sexuality, I started camming again. Having to start from scratch I decided to make my ideal persona and Kitty was born, bringing us to the present.

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

My number one priority is always that of my client, what they want and enjoy, but when I’m focusing on what I enjoy, I’m teaching little boys how to respect a beautiful women as a dominatrix! In my personal life I am a little (aka I am not the dominant in my relationship and I look to my Daddy/Master for guidance). When I am online I tend to be the one taking charge. With my arsenal of toys I create a scenario and take control.

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

Most of my income comes from camming, typically from loyal customers! I learn about my clients, not just their sexual desires but their desires emotionally. This bond is very important and I find the more genuine your bond, the more cash in your pocket.

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

I was hesitant because there is a terrible social stigma behind sex work, it was unknown territory, and like many, I was afraid of my parents or friends finding out. Essentially a fear of rejection and judgement. I overcame them by firstly, not telling my parents right off the bat because who needs that hassle when you’re trying to learn how to sell yourself and your personality? Secondly, I realized that I am not the type to care about a social stigma. Thirdly, I learned to love me and love my body and to find confidence so that any judgment or rejection could be easily turned into determination to prove to myself that I could overcome the pettiness and I realized what a gift it was to be able to do so. To rise above.

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

I do a little promotion on my Instagram but I tend to get my following with time and genuine care for my craft! If you’re loving it, they’re loving it.

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

That a lot of the people who work in the adult industry are total sweethearts, and that there is so much more to it than sex or being sexy. An honest connection with your clients is so important.

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

Be genuine, if you hate what you do, don’t force it, people pick up on that. Stay motivated. Not everyday is going to be the best day ever and some days will be. Self motivation is very important if you are working from home. It is also really important to know your work zone. Just like any other job, knowing the website you’re using and how to navigate it is essential, and just like any other job that comes with practice and time. Know your body and know what you like and are comfortable with and do not sway from that if someone is trying to pressure you. Always stay true to you. NEVER GIVE OUT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION EVER!

Today we meet ELM’s Hollybranson710.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

I got into camming when my day job as a server could no longer cover all my monthly bills because of the slow season. I just started this winter when tourist season came to an end. I had a friend who made a lot of money camming so I thought I should give it a whirl! I’ve been doing it for about 3 months now and have found it to be a really great job!

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

I am a solo performer who does fulfills (almost) all fantasies! While I get off just on making other’s kinkiest dreams come true, I especially love being someone’s slave! I always had a kink for being used as someone’s sex toy and now I get paid for it! It’s amazing to be able to profit off of your own pleasure. So that’s the kind of work I normally gravitate to!

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

Most of my work comes from private live sessions! But the rest of the bulk comes from custom videos and photos.

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

I was really hesitant about no longer enjoying sex in my spare time. I thought that my libido would just be shot after working all day making custom videos and such! But it was quite the opposite! I found that I gave my sexual energy and self esteem as giant boost! It was a complete renewal. I became more confident about myself and my sexuality that I became more adventurous in bed as well as life in general!

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

I’m not at the point in my career as a cam model that I have a following. I am working really hard at creating a solid fanbase around myself with twitter (@hollybranson710) and by really getting to know my clients. I make a point to remember people and what they like. Their kinks, and just the personal stuff they want to share with me. I like to connect with my clients so they know they’re really talking to the true Holly. Not just some persona I created. I think that’s why I already have quite a few loyal regulars (to whom I am really gracious to have, for real y’all-you’re the best)!

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

That people are just as perverse as me. I always thought I was some weirdo kinkster who liked the idea of a gangbang or getting tied up and abused. But there are other people out there just like me! That’s the great thing about this industry, it connects me to people like me. There’s always someone out there who shares the same fetish/deviance as you!

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

There are a lot of people out there trying to scam you. But there are also a lot of people out there who want to help. Yes, you will probably get scammed, a few times maybe, before you learn your lesson. But remember that there are some really bright souls out there who want to help you. Like your regulars, your big tippers, other cam models ready to help you sort this whole industry out. I am especially grateful to the customers who didn’t/didn’t let others take advantage of naive me. Always be grateful to them.

Today we meet ELM’s FuchsiaPeach.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

I’ve been in the fetish community for all of my adult life, I am as kinky in my personal sexuality as I am on here so it just calls to me! I’ve been on and off with making videos, but most recently I joined ELM a few weeks ago so I’m having to learn a lot. I recently got back into it because I missed the excitement, chance to be creative, and most of all having this little secret to myself and all of you!

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

I do solo work, and love fetish and kink content! I’m a switch between taking on the submissive and dominant role, and have a blast in both types of scenarios. I love the classics of course, but anything that gets my imagination and creativity going is gonna make me a very happy girl! I have a ridiculous amount of toys, from vibrators and fucking machines to anal hooks and shock pads. You can see some of my toys in my chest, but I had to take quite a bit out so you could actually see what everything was! I love roleplay as well, and coming up with sexy, silly, or fun scenarios is the best!

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

Most of my sales have come from videos, and love custom work because you get the chance to explore other people’s turn-ons and have picked up a few more myself! I’ve also sold a few pairs of used panties but mostly it’s the videos.

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

I worried about my personal identity merging with my fantasy identity, but I was able to compromise by wearing a mask so that I can feel free to express myself and my sexuality! Plus I love the masquerade look.

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

I think the most important aspect is promoting who I am by forging a good dynamic with the buyers I do have, and providing them with care and attention to the product they are looking for. I think that’s the way to grow long term. I’ve always had an easier time with one to one interactions, so the individualized talks about their wishes are where I feel the most comfortable.

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

It has helped reaffirm my belief that there is no set definition of sexuality, or what it means to be sexy. We’re all just trying to explore who we are and that looks so different person to person. I love finding out what turns each person on.

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

Find what you enjoy doing and don’t try to be someone you’re not. However, you also have to look at what buyers are interested in as well and balance the two.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

I use to sex chat and make some solo videos when I was in college. It was extra cash and easy work I could do from my phone. Years later, I met my husband and was no longer in the adult world. It wasn’t a clear choice to work in this industry at first. We got on a live camming site just for fun–to have other people watch us and chat. The morning after, we had 11 followers. It was really odd, in our minds, that anyone would follow when we were there just for a night of fun. Maybe it was because we were dressed in our Halloween costumes but we stood out to some and took that as a good sign. So, we kept logging on–learning about how things worked and started to actually make some money ( it was a lot of fun and a plus for our sex life).

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

Our main focus at first was live streaming. My husband, Jasper, always wanted to work on the internet (streaming, chatting, writing, etc.), so he dove into the technical aspect of how websites work, graphics design, social media management…the list goes on. But, as we went on, we wanted to take every aspect of it serious. Camming opened our eyes to a lot of people out there who had sexual fetishes and wishes most people would not fulfill. We wanted to be the couple to do it all. Neither of us were into being blindfolded until after one of our private sessions. Now, it is a complete turn on! We focus on straight sex, anal, toy play, solo (female), and bbw. We have done some foot and BDSM shows/videos as well. I think being open-minded and our willingness to try new things help us in this industry. It can hurt, though, when certain fans only like one or two fets, or no specific fetish at all.

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

Currently, our live camming brings in the most income. However, there is more chat than sexual activity and fet-specific people can be turned away by regulars in our chat. To our dismay, we have been unable to move towards a more sex-driven room. It is a lot of fun, and we have made enough to get by, but we want to grow and experience the best of this online world. We want to learn to produce better content and learn what actual amateur porn consumers want.

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

The obvious hesitation was that we were married. We talked about the pros and cons a lot but we have so much fun working in this industry that the hesitation and worries passed quickly. Although married couples can be unusual, I think certain people like the idea.

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

We promote through Twitter, Snapchat, and live camming (the sites we work through). Eventually, we want to go to conventions and do more for fans, like gifts or custom merchandise.

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

There are way more fetishes than we ever thought existed. And we will try almost anything once.

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

Don’t give-up right away. Keep trying. Put in ridiculous hours. And build an internet identity without pushing fets or genders away.

Today we meet ELM’s Lizzzylove.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

I found out about camming about a year ago from my friend who also was a cam model. I first started camming on Chaturbate, but you can find me now on Chaturbate as lizzzy_love and also on Myfreecams as lizzy_love.

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

The type of content I do on cam varies from show to show. Which is what makes camming so great, you can choose what kind of show you would like to do every time you go online. For the most part, I prefer solo shows while catering to specific fetishes in private shows. I find this strategy works best for me because I get to pick what is comfortable for me and I can be clear about what my limits are when it comes to certain fetishes. It also will get certain to take me private for their fetish, whereas if I were do a fetish show in public chat, I might lose some of the people I would normally get in my room because they are not into that certain type of kink.

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

Right now most of my adult work income comes directly from camming. I’m still pretty new at this because I hadn’t started seriously camming until about a couple months ago, until then I would cam here and there but never consistently. However I am looking to start branching out on what I offer and start selling different products and jobs here on ExtraLunchMoney. For example, I am really excited to try out the texting feature that ELM offers!

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

Getting started on adult work was probably the most intimidating thing I have ever done. I never considered myself someone people are sexually attracted to, let alone being sexy enough to put myself on cam and perform sexual acts for strangers. I was really afraid of being ridiculed or judged for my body and what I did. However, once I started putting myself out there it became easier and easier to hang out naked in front of a camera. It also helps that the people who do come in my room (aside from a couple outliers) are really nice and supportive people.

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

The best way I found to build a following is to get on cam consistently, especially when you are first starting out. The biggest mistake I made when I first started camming was not getting on consistently. By getting on frequently and at similar times each day, I was able to start getting regular people into my room who knew me and knew what my show was about. Getting these regulars are important because it helps build a fan base and they often become your personal cheerleaders in your room and can help get new regulars to your room.

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

The most surprising thing I learned about the adult industry is how much dedication and work camming really is. I originally started camming as a side project to earn a little extra money while I am in college. Since then, I have learned that to be successful in this industry, it takes a lot more work and dedication to each show. By the time I am done camming each night, I am exhausted. Who knew that sitting on a bed or couch for 3-6 hours could be so tiring? Keeping high energy and a smile for hours upon hours is very difficult and can take some practice. I would suggest to new models who are starting out to cam for only a couple hours at a time, and once they’ve built a following and they have an idea of what kind of shows they’d like to do, they can start extending the time each time they are online.

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

The biggest tip I can give to new models starting out is to not give up! It can get super frustrating to not get enough users in your room or worse, there are viewers in your room but no one is tipping. We have all started out this way and it can be discouraging and upsetting not to be successful. But like everything, it takes time, make sure when you go on cam you are comfortable, loose, and bubbly. Goof around, talk to them, dance to music. You are there to entertain, so be entertaining! I once watched a girl on cam who made a lot of tips and all she did was sit at her desk and draw pictures. The thing that worked for this girl though was that she was actively engaging with her audience and she had a cute personality and used this to her advantage. Personally, when I start feeling a lull in conversation, I bring up something random or I start saying hello to everyone that comes into my room. More often than not, I’m able to get at least a couple guys to say hello back and then BAM a conversation has started and things aren’t nearly as boring and dull as they were a couple minutes ago.

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

I have not found one specific area that my income is greater than the others as I’m pretty new to this.

Social media is definitely the best way to promote myself.

The only tips I have for a new model is to always be yourself, enjoy each and every day, and don’t worry about stepping out of your comfort zone. In the end you realize you’ve been missing out.

Today we meet ELM’s NominaHeart.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

Being a homemaker I spend much my time at home. I’m a very open person and I knew you could make money doing webcamming. I researched how to get into it and slow started signing up to become an amateur webcam model. I’ve been doing this now for over a year and very much enjoy it.

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

When I’m making my videos I try to get requests so I know what I can do for new material but for the most part I do many solo videos. I try to doing couple videos when I can.

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

Most of the material I have on my pages is my videos. I’m not the only one on my internet so it’s easier to do videos instead of live shows.

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

I hesitated about doing it because my bandwidth is slow with having 3 people on it at a time. I also had hesitation because I’m a mother and when you live in a small town rumors fly. But you know what I can do my videos and still keep in contact with my fans. And even though people like to spread rumors I’m paying my bills and that’s all that matters.

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

We live in the day and age we have social media so I try my best to get my name out there with the networking and I also try to chat with people so they can get to know me.

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

I say one of the most surprising things that I found out about the adult industry with working as a stripper and doing webcamming is most of the time it’s not just about sex. It’s about communication and that it’s nice to get to know people and what fascinates them.

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

Don’t just throw a few things on the internet and expect people to pay for what you have. You still have to do work like you would a 9-5 job; you have to get to know people. Best way to put it is Customer Service.

Today we meet ELM’s LilithStorm.

How did you get into adult work and how long have you been doing this?

I actually got into the adult work industry by watching porn in high school. I came across a cam website and started talking to a couple girls. I ended up signing up for the same site. I started when I was 18. I have taken breaks from camming on and off. But have been doing texting work since I started. So, it has been about 5 years now.

What type of content do you focus on? (solo, fetish, straight sex etc..)?

I don’t have a main focus. Solo is the most common. I do straight sex and am open to doing G/G when I have a partner to film with available. Fetish is a lot of fun and I am open to catering to a lot of them.

Where does most of your income from adult work come from? (camming, content sales etc.,)?

For a while, most of it was coming from texting. When I was camming a few years ago, some shows would make up most of my income. But I am trying to get into more custom videos on ELM and continue texting.

What hesitations did you have about getting started with adult work? How did you overcome those hesitations?

I was young and did not have that many. I was worried about family finding out because I am pretty private with my extended family. But I knew this was something I wanted to do.

How do you promote yourself or build a following?

Twitter has been huge. I can connect with fans, buyers, and other girls very easily on there. Most of my cam traffic was from Twitter.

What’s been the most surprising thing you’ve learned about the adult industry?

Everyone I’ve met (be it porn, camming, kink, any other online adult jobs) has been so open-minded. I am very sex positive and like to surround myself with people who feel the same way.

What are some of the most important tips for other models looking to get into this type of work?

Promote yourself. Get Twitter, Tumblr; sell Kik or Snapchat. Creating an account somewhere and trying to compete is rough. When you use social media, it drives even more traffic. Which is why ELM tweeting for us is so awesome!

Mostly because you just never know who is watching and also I just never thought men would find my small figure appealing.
