Be forewarned! I tried to be brief, but that just isn’t in my nature. I’d like to hear all your thoughts and opinions though, so please give it an honest read. 
-------
I will create and run my own camsite in the future. It won't be for another year or two, because my boyfriend and I both need to get the proper training and money saved up to embark on such an adventure.
We both have the intelligence and dedication to make a cam site work. I realize I will have to invest money to start it – but my largest investment will be time, and I have no problem with that because I see it as a worthy cause. Even if it does fail, the financial investment will be nowhere near the hundreds of thousands of dollars usually required to start up most other businesses.
I have many ideas already and I fully and completely plan to run the site from a model's perspective and make it all about the models and members. As Tahnee pointed out, the main thing you need for a cam site to run is traffic, and in order to get traffic you need models, but in order to get models you need traffic.
Let’s be honest –virtually no one has any loyalty to MFC. We don’t because their customer service is terrible, they have constant technical issues, they do not enforce any of their “rules”, they do not conduct themselves in a professional manner and it is very obvious they care mostly (or even only) about profit. We are all there because they have a site that is set up reasonably well (although to say it's run well would be a stretch) and because of the models and the community feel. The models are only there because the site is set up reasonably well, and they pay out a minimum of 50% (while most other cam sites are 25-35% payouts). The models are also there because of the high traffic rate – but the high traffic rate is due to the reasons I already mentioned and advertising.
So, if I can offer a site that is set up better, run better, has excellent customer service, enforces rules, pays the models more, charge the members less (for shows) and all staff would act as professionals, I see no reason why anyone wouldn't go there. Furthermore, I plan to have enough money saved so that I can give a large amount of members a significant number of credits when they sign up initially. The models will still get paid as normal, but these credits will be free for the first large amount of members. (I know “large amount” is an abstract concept, but I won’t know the number until closer to launch.)
Furthermore, I have been a cam model for almost a year and will continue to be a cam model while I am creating this site and dreaming up the ideas - so I have insight into what will make the models the happiest. Happy models equal happy members. In addition, I am also a customer on MFC. I love to look at the ladies and I enjoy spending money there when I can. So, I know what it's like to be a customer as well. I am also constantly observing and listening to all of you here and I believe I have a pretty firm grasp on how all of you feel.
I plan to make private shows cheaper for members, but give models a bigger cut of the money so they make more than they currently make for private shows on MFC. To give you an idea, I would like to pay out the models a minimum of 70% of the income, rather than 50%. Example: charge the members $5/min for a private show but pay the models $3.50/min. The members pay less and the models get more –as compared to MFC. I believe that the site owners should definitely be taking money, since they have bills to pay and are definitely providing a service - but these sites would be nothing without the models. The models should certainly be making much more that fifty percent consistently. Not to mention, the site makes the percentage off of EVERY model, so they still make a large amount of money, even if they take a lower percentage.
My ideas are still in the development and research stage, and to be totally honest with you, I am not sure of the actual costs of running servers, so in the end I might not be able to only take 30% from the models. But I truly believe I can take less than 50% consistently and still make private shows cheaper for the members, while making sure the models are paid more than they currently make on MFC. I will always do everything in my power to give the models the most I can. I know MFC claims this, but we can all tell by the attitude they have, it is not the truth.
Has anyone even bothered to estimate the amount of money the owners of MFC make a month? It’s in the order of millions. If you don’t believe me, do some math yourself, or if you want I can post how I do my estimation. Like I admitted already, I am not sure the actual cost of running these servers, but most certainly making millions a month should allow them to run as many servers as they require in order to make the site run smoothly (which it doesn’t even) and still give the models a larger cut.
*Ehem*
Look at World of Warcraft. They only make $15/month per user... I am sure the average premium user on MFC spends much more than that... That would at least begin to make up for the difference in paying members on MFC to paying members on WoW (we all know there aren’t as many paying members on MFC as there are paying members on WoW). Also, I can’t be certain but I would hazard a guess that running live video stream doesn’t require as much bandwidth as running a MMORPG as big as WoW. This is just a very rough point that I can’t quite back up, as I cannot find an accurate estimate for the number of premium members on MFC nor the average money they spend. However, based on what we all know of MFC, I don’t think my point is completely farfetched.
I will not lie to you and say that the amount of money I can make from running a cam site is not a factor in why I want to do it - it most certainly is. However, one of the other main reasons I want to do it is that I believe these cam sites should be all about the models! Every cam site I have seen is run by people who clearly care the most about turning a profit and don't even bother to really care about the models or members. The members are giving their money to the models – not the site! So they would love to know more of their dollar is going to the models’ bank account. Also, many of these girls don’t even seem to care that they are treated like dirt and only make 25% of the profits. MFC is on the right track by paying them more and having a community feel – but I think we can all agree it could be leaps and bounds better. I can promise all of you right now, that when I do have my site up and running, it will ALWAYS be about the members and models. I will always conduct all of my business in a professional manner and provide the best customer service I can. This is how it SHOULD be.
I love the camsites and firmly believe they are a wonderful idea. I love the community feel of MFC and the fact that members love to hang out with the girls – even if it isn’t always sexual. Although, we all know that sex is still one of the main reasons people go to camsites – and that’s okay! That’s awesome, in fact. What more fun is to be had, other than sex? Cam sites provide a safe and legal environment for all of us to make friends and act on our sexual needs and urges. There is nothing wrong with this. Cam sites also provide women with a way to make great money, while setting their own schedules and all from the comfort of their own home. I also believe it helps the confidence and sex lives of all these women (which all of their partners appreciate also). I know it has certainly benefitted my life in this way.
I could continue to go on with many more of my ideas and reasons why I want to do this, but I’ll just stop here for now.
I didn’t want to share this idea initially because I was afraid of someone stealing my idea – but this idea is obviously on many of our minds and I thought I should just let you know that I plan to do this. I also would love to work with any or all of you. I’ve had this plan since I first started camming. Call me ambitious. I was also afraid someone else around here may have already been planning this and I don’t want to step on the toes of people I respect. I would fully support any one of you also pursuing this same idea. Perhaps we can even work together. I don’t want to fight with anyone here, nor take away from anyone if this was what they planned as well. We can all support each other and hopefully lead the way to a future with even better cam sites.
It will still be a year or two of hard work before I have this site up and running, but I have no doubt that I will have it up and running. Truth be told, whether it lasts or not fully and completely depends on whether or not I can get the models and the members. So, if anyone stands behind me and my idea and wants to continue to hear more, I will make sure to keep you all posted and you better believe I will be picking the brains of all those willing to let me do so.
