Today’s adult industry is a completely different industry than what it used to be. While doing scenes used to be a talent’s main source of income, today there are multiple ways to make money. Instead of depending on a company to hire you, you can work for yourself.
Since my very first scene, directors and talent have been telling me that the industry is not what is used to be. Rates are down and work is sparse. Some talent will go for a month or more without one booking. That is a very stressful situation. Luckily, now we have the magic of the internet and many more ways to make money. You just need to know what opportunities are really worth it. I have personally branched out from just doing scenes. While scenes are still a great form of income and brand building, I also create my own content and work for myself.
While I am on webcam, I always take clips and pictures on my phone or camera. Now, by doing one cam session, I have made immediate money, I get longer video content for ManyVids and short clips/pictures for OnlyFans.
The first thing I started doing was webcamming. This is such a great option because you can do it anytime and from anywhere. All you need is a laptop or computer. I use my own social media to promote my cam shows to create more traffic. I will also cam with other girls to gain a bigger audience. I find it very helpful to set a schedule whenever possible because then my fans will know what days and times they will be able to find me online. While I cam, I like to play games and set goals to keep my fans interested and having fun. The more interactive I am the better I do. When I do my shows, I always record them so I can resell later. So while I cam, I can let my fans know that I also have videos for sale, so I generate more income.
The next resource I use is ManyVids. On this site I sell clips, custom videos and merchandise. While I webcam, I’ll take an hour before or after to record clips and scenes. I will also use a cameraman to record while I webcam to kill two birds with one stone. I will research what types of scenes are trending and try and add that to my profile. I also record things that I think are fun and kinks that I am into. Everything I wear in a scene or photoshoot I also sell. My merchandise includes t-shirts, 8x10s and DVDs. Customers can request a custom video and I will accept them as long as I am comfortable with the scenario. A lot of custom videos can be resold as well.
While I am on webcam, I always take clips and pictures on my phone or camera. I will upload these on OnlyFans. Now, by doing one cam session, I have made immediate money, I get longer video content for ManyVids and short clips/pictures for OnlyFans. I will also get personal clips and pictures throughout my day so my subscribers can get a close look at my life and things I don’t show on my social media.
These are just a few ways you can make steady income every month from home. More ways to make money, which I have taken advantage of, are feature dancing, call/texting apps, an exclusive PornHub account and becoming affiliates of companies, so when I promote my scenes, I can use my affiliate link to profit off of my promotions.
Social media is also very important. Growing a loyal social media following will allow you to sell more clips and gain more subscribers. It also gives you a chance to connect and interact with your fans so they can get to know you. Who you are is your brand, and as your brand becomes more and more popular, the more successful you will become and the more opportunities will come your way.
These opportunities allow me to be self-sufficient. This allows me to pick and choose the scenes I want to do. Scenes are just one of the many things each month that can bring you income. By taking advantage of multiple avenues of income, my life has become exactly what I want it to be. I have been able to be my own boss and not just make money, but save and invest for my future.
