How to Work with Promo Accounts

Leave a comment

Beyond the CAM4 accounts, there’s endless opportunities to use social media to find new viewers. Here’s a list of just some of the Twitter accounts you could work with, and how to look for more. 

Always remember that cam promoters aren’t a source of instant tokens, they’re part of longterm success. Building up your exposure and personal brand will result in more tokens, more viewers, and more opportunities for events, trade shows, partnerships, and other magic that only the future knows. 

Most promo accounts make money as affiliates, so they will likely attach their referral code to your CAM4 URL. If it’s a good account, you’ll benefit from this. Check out the Camgirl Promo Accounts list on the CAM4 Twitter page: 

twitter.com/Cam4/lists/camgirl-promo-accounts

WeCamGirls (which by the way if you aren’t already mega active on this forum, do it now) has this epic article on how to use cam girl promo accounts on Twitter, including promo accounts for everything from facials to tattooed camgirls: 

wecamgirls.com/articles/for-camgirls-make-your-twitter-your-1-marketing-tool-updated-with-new-categories/

Doing fan signs for big accounts with thousands of followers is a great opportunity to get more people following you and joining your camshows. Even if they’re free, they will pay off in the end.

The most effective promo accounts are each others. Every cam girl’s following on social media is made up of: viewers, similar camgirls, and fans/promo accounts. Become friends and help each other out by trading tweets, doing giveaways together, camming together, or whatever works for you. 

Before you work with promo accounts, you have to make sure a couple of things: 

  • You’re tweeting regularly with good content like pictures, short videos, and always your CAM4 link
  • You’re able to cam often, or sell videos on CAM4
  • You are using your referral ID in your tweets, so when RT accounts repost your messages, you can earn money
  • You’re contacting accounts that represent you – i.e. if you don’t have tattoos don’t contact the tattoo accounts
  • Your Twitter account is public!!
Getting Started

Username & Icon Legend

Leave a comment

Usernames on CAM4 are sorted by color to help you identify who is addressing you.

Here is an overview of the different username colors you will see on CAM4 and what they mean.

Legend:

Model: Your name will appear in the live chat for your room like this.

Gold Member: They have purchased a Gold Membership, which gives them exclusive access to certain options and contests on the site. This color is not related to the chip balance.

Moderator: You can use a moderator to assist with chat while you perform. They can help with abusive viewers by using the silence, kick, or ban tools to control the room. The setting will only apply to your room, not the entire site.

Basic Member: These members have a CAM4 account but not the options of a Gold account and they will not display an avatar in front of their name.

Admin: They are members of the CAM4 team, they are there to assist users and to ensure that the rules of the site are respected. Admins will never ask for your CAM4 password.

Account Manager

Coach: A  CAM4 team member that will guide and help models.

 

Notifications

You will also see these notifications when a certain member enters your chat room:

A member of the CAM4 Admins team has entered your chat.

A member of the Coach CAM4 team has entered your chat.

The token icon indicates that the voyeurs in your room have tokens available on their CAM4 account. Users with tokens are potential tippers that can help you reach your goal quickly!

If the user is a Gold member or a member of your FanClub, this icon will not be present next to their nick (even if the user has available tokens)

Do you want to learn more about all the colours and indicators, we might have a very interesting article about that! –> Token Indicators

Promoting Yourself

Tips for promoting and selling your MyShop content

Leave a comment

Selling your videos in MyShop is not only a fantastic way to please your fans, it’s an easy way to increase your monthly earnings. So, what is the best way to ensure success of your videos?  Follow this guide on effective ways to promote and increase your MyShop sales and watch your earnings grow!

Use free content to entice viewers

CAM4 MyShop gives you the ability to make a video free to watch, so why not use this feature to upload a teaser or promo video! Free content attracts viewers to your shop, so use this opportunity to show viewers why they should buy all your videos. You should add new free content as your paid video collection grows.

  • Promo video ideas:

~A sexy video where you list off all the reasons they should buy your videos and become a fan, except you use articles of clothing to represent reasons and take them off as you go down the list.

~Online dating style video. Think “long walks on the beach”, with your own personal twist.

~Infomercial style video. “Have you lost the will to wank? Perverted comments not as funny as they used to be? That’s all about to change with the purchase of my videos!”

~Personal video where you tell fans what they can expect in your videos, and what it’s like watching your online shows.

~A highlight reel of your other videos.

~A behind the scenes video that lets viewers get to know you, and you talk about the filming of your videos.

~A guide where you recommend videos based on a viewer’s taste. “If you like cum shots, then _______ video is definitely for you.”

Get discovered with a great title

Choosing the right title is an important part of what makes a video successful. A catchy title not only peeks a viewer’s interest, it can be the deciding factor on whether they purchase it or not.

  • Title tips:

If it applies, include phrases like ‘behind the scenes’, ‘inside look’, ‘exclusive’, ‘intimate encounter’, ‘full access’, ‘rarely seen’. This will make the content of your video feel even more special, and make viewers watching it feel like they are included in your sexy raw video.

Refrain from using words like sexy, hot, fun, naked, etc… Buying a video from your MyShop already implies all these things, so those words may not catch a viewer’s attention like you hoped.

Catchy titles raise more questions then they answer. Eg. ‘I had no idea my cam was still on after my show!’ Or ‘Feeling optimistic about anal?’ The reason these work is because our brains are hard wired to want to complete a thought, or get the answer to a question. They don’t like to be left hanging 😉

Using enticing descriptions like – porn lovers only, warning: this video may cause spontaneous arousal, video is known to increase risk of ejaculation, or do not watch if you are prone to obsession, is a fun way to intrigue prospective buyers.

#ProTip – Titles that use your CAM4 username in third person seem to sell very well so give it a try! Eg. ‘Cam4coach_en meets 2 strangers in the park and cums in an unexpected place…’

#Tagging brings your audience to you

Just like your shows on CAM4, adding relevant tags will help viewers find your video faster and easier.

  • Tagging tips:

~Use tags that describe what your video is about. Eg. #footworship, #fetish, #anal, #doublepenetration, #gay, #shower, #oilshow, #toy, #pee, #squirt

~Tell viewers about the cast of your video. Eg. #solo, #girl/girl, #guy/guy, #guy/girl, #group, #orgy, #gangbang

~Just like your title, stay away from generic tags like #sexy, #hot, etc…

Sort your videos

Did you know the order of your MyShop videos can directly influence a viewer’s purchase choice? Its true, many viewers will only focus on the first three videos that appear on your profile, potentially making them miss a masterpiece that’s at the bottom of your shop! This is why it’s important to keep your MyShop library looking new and fresh by rotating your videos so they all get some top shelf love. Just click on Manage My Shop and drag the thumbnail where you like, viewers will see your content exactly as you arranged it.

  • Sorting tips:

~ Rotate from the bottom of your list, and ones you think may be a potential best seller.

~ Put your free video first, followed by a higher priced video, then one with a slightly lower price. This will result in higher sales of your third video because by comparison it is the best deal.

~Match your top row videos to CAM4 themed weekends or holidays to boost sales. Eg. Put all your fetish/BDSM videos at the top of the list during CAM4’s Fetish themed weekend. 

Promotion equals success

Now that your MyShop is stocked with catchy titled and tagged videos, it’s time to tell the world that you are open for business. Getting into good promoting habits right from the start is a smart move, self-promotion is ongoing if you want continued success. Add these effective marketing practices to your routine, and promoting your videos will never become a chore.

MyShop talk in your shows

~Now that viewers have a collection of videos to choose from, help them find the perfect one by making recommendations based on their taste.

~Tell viewers about your videos that match their requests when they ask during your show.

~After getting to know a viewer in a PVT show, send them an inbox message suggesting a video you think they would like.

Raffles and contests

~When adding a new video to your shop, give it a promo boost by raffling it off to a viewer that has purchased one of your previous videos. You can get a full list of who purchased your videos in your MyShop ‘insights’ dashboard under ‘details’.

~Have a contest where viewers can submit ideas for your next video. You choose the top 5 ideas and let viewers vote for their favorite, the user who came up with the winning idea gets a copy of the video once it’s made.

~Have a video raffle that can only be entered if you win a ticket on a Roll-the-Dice outcome. This will create a lot of interest in your video because not everyone can enter to win, and create buzz around your other MyShop videos.

Social Media

It’s no secret that social media is a powerful promotional tool for performers. Make sure you’re getting the most from your social accounts by including your MyShop in your social account bio, and tweeting, posting, blogging about your shop whenever possible.

  • How to use social media effectively:

~Let CAM4 do some of the work by adding your MyShop link to your custom tweets. You can do this under ‘Social networks’ that is in your CAM4 account options.

~Use social media tools like Hoot Suite to schedule tweets regularly that include your MyShop link with a promo image for your videos.

~Where possible, use the header banner on a social media account to advertise your shop, or a new video you just released.

~Use your pinned tweet to advertise your MyShop videos.

~Include the #’s you used on CAM4 to tag your video in all social media promo about the video. This will help your video get discovered faster.

~When promoting a new video on Twitter, do a re-tweet challenge where you will release a clip of the video if your promo tweet gets re-tweeted a certain number of times.

~Tweet blooper clips from your video as a fun way to promote it to your followers.

 

~That’s all for this lesson!

Tips for filming great videos for your fans

Leave a comment

Making great content (videos/pictures) for your fans is fun and easy. Follow these guidelines and you will be making great content that will blow your fans away!

caitierage-cam4

Tell a story

No matter what kind of video you are creating you need to tap into human emotions to get your audience engaged in your content.

  • How you do this:

Think about your subject, then think about why is this important to the viewer. Are you sharing something that really turns you on? Are you filming the first time you’re exploring this subject yourself? Knowing this will help you communicate the story to your viewers easily.

 

aliciatank-cam4

Think visually

Once you know what your story is, you must think of a great way to express it to your audience visually.

  • How you do this:

What is the feeling of your video? If the feeling is grimy and naughty, maybe choose a location that supports that feeling. Do you want to convey the feeling of being spied on while at work? Create an office desk set up and have your webcam under your desk or looking down on you so viewers get the feeling of spying from above.

ProTip: Use PIP (Picture in Picture) and have 2 cameras going at once.

 

ES-ivanamor

Clip or Full length?

Knowing how long you want your video will help you fill your time with exciting, engaging content.

A clip is 2-3 minutes, while a video can be anywhere from 5-30min. Its best to make your video exciting from start to finish so don’t make it longer just because you feel like you have too. If you video ends up being a clip, that’s great!

 

alexvswayne

Record in landscape mode

If you are using a video camera or phone to record, get in the habit of always shooting in landscape mode. This will make it MUCH easier to view on a computer screen.

  • How you do this:

Simply turn your phone 90 degrees so it is positioned horizontally.

 

missela20 copy

Zooming vs. editing

Zooming can be tempting because you want your viewer to see something you feel is important, but forcing them to see one thing, means they might miss out on another and can be distracting to watch.

  • How to do this:

While filming your video, don’t worry about zooming in or out to focus viewer’s attention on something, this can easily be done in post when you are editing your video. This will prevent possible filming bloopers like dropping the cam, having to move your cam multiple times, or losing focus from a zoom.

 

bloodyfrench

Audio

It’s important that your audience hears YOU, and not background music or noise if you want them to feel fully connected to what they are watching.

  • How you do this:

Make sure you record in a quiet environment and use an external microphone if you have one. It’s also important to refrain from too much talking during your video UNLESS: The video scenario calls for it, you are very comfortable doing it, or it’s a custom video and the viewer requests it. When you are not focusing on what you’re saying, you’re able to get into what you’re doing…and that’s hot.

 

AliceSleek

Lighting

Just like on cam, we need to see you.

  • How you do this:

Add lots of light sources! Take a few test shots and watch them to see if more light is needed to give your video a well-lit clear image.

edwardoo22

Steady cam or handheld?

This will be the difference of feeling like there is someone else in the room while your filming or not. If you want your viewers to feel like they are watching you through someone else’s eyes (POV – Point of View) then do handheld, if not, then use a tripod.

  • How you do this:

If you want to have a steady cam, simply film using your laptop or put your webcam on a tripod. If you don’t have a tripod but want to use one, you can use any house hold lamp as a tripod by screwing your webcam onto the top screw where the lampshade sits. (Every webcam can be mounted onto a lamp this way)

For handheld just have someone film you and hold the camera, just make sure they are always filming in landscape mode and are not zooming in on you. Its best if the person filming you doesn’t jostle the camera around too much, it will make your viewers sick if they do.

 

x_sofia

Angles

Because a video is not live you have the option to film it from a few different angles and edit them together if you choose. This will give you a lot more content to choose from when you edit, and you can make a very compelling video by using a few different angles.

  • How you do this:

You can simply set up a few different cameras to film yourself at the same time. You can have one be your webcam, and the other be your phone if you like.

ProTip: If you have someone filming you handheld, set up another angle that is steady cam. Don’t worry if you can see the handheld cam in the steady cam shots, it will make all the handheld shots feel more interesting.

 

vicalouqua

Engage your audience

Use eye contact to connect with your audience, this will take your video from being good, to being a viewer favorite that they share, and watch over and over.

  • How to do this:

Be aware of your camera and look at it. This forms a connection with your audience and allows them to feel more engaged with what they’re watching.

What your video stats are trying to tell you.

Leave a comment

Stats are a powerful indicator of what you are doing right when it comes to making and selling content for your fans. So, your CAM4 ‘My Shop’ was carefully crafted to be easy to use, and offer you focused stats that reflect viewer satisfaction with the videos they’ve purchased from you.

cam4-my-shop-profile-final-english

Your ‘My Shop’ also includes shareable links for your videos to be used on social media, and the ability to control the order your videos are displayed on your profile.

Your Stats

new ststs!

Understanding your stats 

Everyone knows that high stats are great, but it’s the low stats that tell us the most about what’s going on. In these next 2 examples I am going to show you possible reasons you could be getting low numbers on stats.

Video #1 – Your video has noticeably low Likes compared to your sales and views.

  • This could mean:
  1. Check your video quality! Is there good lighting? Can we hear you properly? Do you look happy to be IN the video? These things affect viewer satisfaction so make sure you would like the video yourself if you were watching.
  2. You have done a great job at marketing this video and attracting viewers…but maybe not the right ones. Double check that you have used relevant tags/title/description for this video so you are attracting the right audience.
  3. Look at your price vs. length of video. Did you make a 1 min video and charge 50$? If you did it better be amazing! Remember, quantity of sales will make you more money in the end over a high sale price.


Video #2. People are buying, even your likes are ok…but your Views are almost the same as your total number of sales.

  • This could mean:
  1. You might have over sold but under delivered on this video. It’s a hard truth but a great lesson to learn for next time.
  2. Watch your video again and see how many times you try to engage your viewers with eye contact, changing your cam angle, and giving viewers the feeling that you love what you’re doing. These things form a connection between you and your audience and if it’s just not there, they won’t watch it again.
  3. This may be a video production issue. Is your audio way to loud? Can we hear you at all? Does your video start and cut off in weird spots? Is the color balance and auto focus of your cam going crazy?

Film making #ProTips

~Ask yourself “Would I watch my video?” “Would I pay for my video?”

  • ~I know it can be weird at first, but WATCH YOUR OWN VIDEOS!
  • ~Don’t feel like you have to talk in your videos. Some of the hottest, sexiest videos are ones where all you hear is the breathing and moaning of the performer.
  • ~Try to keep background music to a minimum for both legal and viewer personal music taste reasons.
  • ~Make your videos roughly 5-10 min in length. This doesn’t sound like a long time, but it is if you’re trying to hold someone’s attention for that long.
  • ~A great video can be filmed on a cell phone in a train station bathroom. Good content is good content, regardless of production value.
  • ~Make sure you are having fun filming your videos! Just like camming, your viewers will be able to tell if you’re enjoying yourself.

If you need advice on video editing software, check out the article on ‘How to edit and watermark your videos and pictures’
