Just gonna be upfront about this if your only getting into camming because your hoping to make the big big big bucks maybe rethink your choice. This is a job that will effect you for a lifetime! And it's a lot harder than a lot of people think (a lot of marketing, behind the scenes work, constantly coming up with new ideas, sleepless nights preparing for a fun show). Even as somebody who has double the average camscore (not that camscore is everything it's not!) I only make between 1,800 to 2,000 a month. The girls who are making six figures are not the majority! And they work EXTREMLEY hard I mean EXTREMELEY. Sorry for the blurb I just had to let you know when you described camming as a way to make the big bucks.
Now onto some advice I think is decently important!
This is my experience as a Myfreecams model
Privates! I don't know why this is but it seems like privates were far more frequent when I was a new model. I accepted them cause WOW 60tkn a min I'll take that. Let me just say no no no to this mindset! Privates aren't bad by any means but you shouldn't accept every private request you get. I left my room when it had 300 people in it! Went to private and couldn't get my room back up when I came back! So look into everything when going private how many people are in here, how many are lurkers, how many are talkers, how many people are contributing to countdown? Building a relationship and fan base when you have new model status is crucial, and you can't really do that if you aren't in public. So decide is that private with a guy who hasn't contributed to public what so ever and may never come back worth losing 10 chatters and tippers (even if they aren't tipping 60tkn a min) that will stand by you?
Recording. People are going to record your shows and put them on the Internet for free watch out for people that come in your show consecutively but never talk or tip I give em about a week or two then I ban them I noticed they are always the ones recording. Apply for model status so you can get more in depth info on how to get vids and pics taken down
Scams are every where when you're a new model payment should always be upfront! Now if and or buts no "I need to do a test run to make sure your cam is working" or I'll pay halfway through the show up front ALWAYS! For now tell them you only take tokens not alt. Payments. As a new model you'll have enough of a headache dealing with constant scammers don't add another headache of Alt. Payments
This isn't very important but know who your target market is. That doesn't mean you stay in one little box and never venture out but at the beginning of my camming I had no idea what kind of customers I was going to attract. It really made my topics all over the place, and narrowing down a few things I know my target market likes helped me organize. For example I forgot to shave my first show and attracted tons of bush lovers, knowing this I now market myself as Au naturale, I bring in viewers specifically looking for the bush, and now I make topics around the bush because that's what my target market likes. This is kinda a ramble but the point is know what makes you special, know what kind of people that will attract, and build shows around that.
Never post any photos you have on your personal social media to any cam related social media or cam profile. Reverse image search is a thing
Be fun. If there is no conversation make a constant effort to create conversation. What the fun in watching a model who is playing on her phone looking bored? Joke laugh, share funny stories, show personality, engage with your room. There will be days where you have a room full of lurkers, do your best to make them talk. Ask questions, tell a story, bring up topics (but nothing serious or political) talk about your life, what you ate for breakfast, ANYTHING to make your room more lively!

Save AT LEAST 30% of your paycheck for taxes! You will owe money at the end of the year. You don't want to be scrambling for cash at the end of the year when you have to file your taxes.
Aaaaand that's all off the top of my head, there's more but you have to learn some things on your own
