Making the most of a new model tag

[lexigrey]

So I'm planning on starting very soon (if I can ever figure out a fucking last name...) but I've been trying to think about the best way to do it. My understanding is that I get a whole week with the tag so how should I best maximize that? I know doing regular shows, getting social media set up first etc, and I will, but I was thinking of maybe starting early in a week, say on a Tuesday, so that way i have a few days to build up a handful of fans and get a name out before going into the weekend when the real traffic hits. What do you guys think? Amy other things I should keep in mind? I definitely want to do this right. I've wanted to do this for a long time and I want this to be my profession and I know this can really be my springboard so I want to make the most of it.

Thanks everyone!

Is there a reason you don't want to stick with Grey as a last name? To much Greys Anatomy? Also which site are you planning to work on, my guess is MFC but just want to check. New model status on streamate is not that important but its def something you want to take advantage of on mfc. So its been a while since I streamed on there but here's my advice... consistency....create a schedule you can work with and stick to it bc thats how you build regulars in your room. In the beginning you may want to split shifts, meaning do a couple hours in the morning/afternoon then another couple in the evening/night that way you can see the difference in day time vs night time camming, you open your self up to different time zones and you can start figuring out what works for you. Other than that though... and I could be wrong about this but if you are talking about MFC I think the new model status is for the first 10 hours you stream. The members can change their settings so that they can see new model status for longer periods of time but by default its only a few hours.

You might want to read up on common scams and such too, before launching out there (fake tips, password show scams, etc) because the new model tag definitely attracts trolls and scammers on all sites. It's good to know who not to waste your time on. Dont' be afraid to silence and ban and if something doesn't sound right, it's probably not.

Also, it's good to keep in mind that the New period is definitely not make or break- at least on CB, where it's only somewhat promoted. It can definitely be a big boost but I just mean, don't be disappointed if you don't skyrocket and make a ton in the first week. You might! But you also might not and that's ok! It's a marathon and not a sprint, is all! Good luck!

Crap, I thought I said chaturbate. So yea, chaturbate.

There was a whole thread about the name. I didn't realize quite how many associations there are with Grey. Greys anatomy, which apparently even has a character named lexie grey, wh9ch is what I would usually go by. Then 50 shades. Then apparently it's a fairly common name among porn stars and such so...yea. I'm upset about it, I like the name but I dont like al the associations. I'm working on it.

I've read up on some of the scams and such. I'm sure I dont know about every single one but i know about a few and i know to look for fishy stuff, especially while i have the new model tag.

As for schedule, i was planning on sticking to nights because it just really fits my lifestyle better and other stuff (I dont have another job but I've still got stuff to take care of during the day) . But do you think doing morning and night is really important. I will definitely be regular, I will be online everyday at the same time probably for the full 7 days (thourgh I will probably only usually work 5). Let me know what you think.

I've definitely done a lot of research but I'm not sure if there are any tricks or anything for making the most of the new model tag.

Thank you!!
