Where to even begin? It’s almost 2019 and social media runs the world. For most adult performers, premium Snapchat, content trades etc. are fairly new developments, but not for me. I started marketing myself on social media in 2014, and I haven’t had another job since. My goal each and every day is to promote myself more than anyone else, because at the end of the day ... you are your number one fan.
I’ll take you back to where it all began. In 2014, I got “Snapchat famous.” I was the girl everyone wanted to follow on Snap. I gave shout-outs to companies like YouPorn, Red Tube and Pornhub on my Snapchat long before I entered the adult industry professionally. It all started with pulling out my titties in bars in Austin, Texas and it became such a thing, that I created a brand for myself called Keep Austin Topless.
Make a uniform username for all the important things you will use to promote yourself, like Snapchat, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook fan pages and even Reddit.
I had stickers for pedicabs made with all of my social media so that when I did in fact pull out my tits and give everyone a show, they knew who the fuck I was. They knew exactly where they could watch all my debauchery go down. That, my friends, is where my addiction of promoting myself began. And when you start treating your social media as a full-time job, you will see the benefits.
From those early days in 2014, people were already asking to buy topless photos, then nudes, solos and such. I had such a demand for my adult content, that purely from my Snap traffic alone, I bought my first website powered by Vuier. I was cashing out almost $1,000 a day. When I saw this, I knew I would never go back to working regular jobs again. I should, however, put the disclaimer that this level of success does not come immediately to everyone. Never get discouraged, because it takes time. Once you seriously get your brand built, established and desirable, the money will come to you, while you fucking sleep. Patience is everything.
I’m not going to lie, though, because while I was initially doing premium Snapchat sales on my own via PayPal, Venmo and Amazon gift cards (I’m now banned on all cash apps), it was overwhelming as fuck to try and keep up with it myself. I was in another Snap group called Teddy’s Girls, but they weren’t really on the scale of what I needed for my brand to grow.
That ambition eventually led me to join the adult industry in 2017, where I met Stan with ModelCentro, and from there … FanCentro changed my life. FanCentro was everything I needed. They handle all the in-between of things I don’t have time to deal with. My full-time job now is creating content for my premium Snapchat. I can be whoever the fuck I want to be. I can be me, and make money.
It’s important for new girls joining the industry to understand you will not be the new girl forever and for some girls, after you shoot a few months, you will be waiting around for scenes. I’ve seen so many girls be discouraged, including myself, when they aren’t being booked by major companies. Do not fret. You don’t have to sit and wait on anyone. You make every motherfucker come to you. You do shit and make people say damn, what is she doing? People know I’m a hustler because they see the effort I put into my social media.
Here’s a really importance piece of advice for new girls: Make a uniform username for all the important things you will use to promote yourself, like Snapchat, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook fan pages and even Reddit. You want people to be able to find any of your socials by your name and brand, very easily. Also, do cross promo with other girls. It does nothing but benefit you.
Make your own content. Shoot things you want to shoot with people you want to fuck. If someone doesn’t want to book me because I’m 30 and have tattoos, that’s cool, I’ll just go fuck a friend on my Snapchat and make 40 times what I would have made off that scene. Obviously, you still want to shoot for mainstream companies as it keeps your name out there and relevant, but the moral is, do not think that because a certain company isn’t shooting you or doesn’t like your look, that you aren’t doing a good job. Take that, get mad and then go fuck some talent on your premium snap and count dollars in your sleep.
Also, by being the 30-year-old, tattooed, not-young-but-not-MILF-looking chick in porn, lit the fire inside of my fucked up fantasies. I started writing and directing my own movies and they are featured exclusively on my Pornhub channel. I hire talent that I like to work with and create some epic, dark fantasies of mine. It’s super fucking powerful to know you are literally just living your life and filming it and making money and traveling the world.
Utilize companies that will promote you. People will argue that we as performers don’t make shit off Pornhub views, but guess what? The traffic and promotion I get from the best tube site in the world sends people to my social media, where they find my premium Snapchat. Which in return means I can sit at home, or on a beach and do whatever I want and still make money. That is fucking living!
I can’t stress enough how important it is to create your brand. Work hard for yourself, be kind to others and promote yourself more than anyone else. Cross promote all your socials on all of your other socials, make a backup account just in case and most of all have fun and live your best life being you!
