i've noticed we've got a crop of new models in here and i wanted to start a thread for some advice to the new models on how to be successful!
here's just a few things i've noticed some of the new girls don't know about:
1) if you're here then you've already discovered the forums. stay active in them and you're bound to attract more members into your room! once you develop regulars, try to comment when they write in the forums - it's cool for me to know that my fav girl actually cares about what i'm writing about and not just looking at me as two big dollar signs!
2) make sure your profile is finished and creative. make sure you list things that you specialize in: bondage, ATM, wet & sloppy blow jobs, etc. the guys who are going to come on here just to get off on a pretty face are going to come into your room regardless, but lots of members read through a models bio before ever stepping foot in their chat and it's those guys who will keep coming back!
3) find your messaging/e-mail and USE IT! thank your members for their pvts or just for being a regular. you'd be amazed at how many girls don't and that's one surefire way to keep guys coming back!! so you know, a member can message a model by clicking on the envelope box below the models pic in her bio. (FYI, this chat is linked through a bunch of different sites - i.e. hustler live, digital playground live, flirt 4 free, etc. but the only site (i think) that has messaging for the members is flirt4free. so if you're talking to a member and he can't find that messaging button on your profile, it's because they are here through a different site.)
4) remember your regulars!! when i first came to this site i went through a bunch of models rooms finding out which one's i liked, the one's who remembered me were the ones i went back to. take notes if you need to - one of the girls i talked to on here had a little notebook with all her regulars fantasies, birthdays, and all sorts of info. guess who's room is always packed?
5) invest in a good camera and a good mic. i know camera's are expensive so start with a good mic and work your way up to a good camera! it's hard to get excited when it looks like i'm dialed up on a 56k modem and i'm talking to a blur!
6) try to develop a schedule, stick to it and post it in your bio. it's going to be damn near impossible to develop regulars when they're having to guess when your on. if it's possible, having some day and night times would be cool as most of us members have "regular" schedules and don't get to see half the models cause they're always on at opposite times.
7) yellow is VIP members, white are regular paying members and gray is reserved for those who have yet to buy credits. each model has their own philosophy on how to treat each color but do remember that all of us members were gray at one time too! something or someone had to inspire us to become members (and if a gray buys their first credits through your room you do get some sort of incentive).
8) there WILL be some jackass's that come through your room, do your best to ignore them and continue on with the people in your room that matter. if someone comes in your room and is spamming (ex: hi everyone, i'm penny 21 f from FL message me P3nny aT y@h0o), you can ban them by right clicking on their name and hitting eject/ban (or something similar). i think you have to list a reason, but usually "spam" is good enough. banning is only to be used on spammers, DO NOT ban a member just because you don't like them...
8) HAVE FUN! if you aren't having fun people can pick up on it, no matter how much you smile and say you're having a good day. if this isn't fun, it might not be the place for you.. sorry to be blunt but as the old saying goes "you'll catch more flies with honey than with vinegar"!
the first few weeks will be exciting and filled with ups and downs. you'll be excited for your first pvt, depressed on the first day you don't get one, and at some point wonder why that guy took you pvt for 35 seconds and was a complete dick! as you're name becomes more familiar more people will drop through you're room. don't let the bad times get to you.
this truly is an awesome site and i've met quite a few cool people on here, both members and models, which i call friends!
UPDATE: IF YOU HAVEN'T BEEN ON HERE LONG, FLIRT UPDATED THEIR INTERFACE A FEW MONTHS BACK SO THERE'S A FEW MORE DETAILS I WANTED TO ADD FOR YA'LL:
since they updated the site a few months ago they added a few features that i wanted to make everyone aware of:
first, members now can have bios too!! if you see a little pac-man looking object next to a members name in your room that means they have a bio made, just right click the name and you can select the option to see it! there are still a few bugs in the system though and i have a bio, but it doesn't show that i do, but if you click on my name you can read it. kinda screwy still so it might be worth checking for fun.
second, you can also now write notes about each member that only you can access. this would be a good place to put notes about that guy who keeps promising to take you pvt and won't or to list what the member wanted in your last pvt so it'll be easier to make their dreams come true next time!
third, gifts are a fun way that members can say thank you or celebrate a special occasion with you! you can (and should) respond to the message they send along with the gift, or even send a gift back. members can only send one per model, per day. i'm not sure if models have a restriction or not. one thing i love about my favorite is her creativity when sending a gift 
fourth, if the members side of the chat or video freezes they have a button under the chat screen that can refresh the video and or chat on their side. so i would ask or type that before you assume it's your computer.
fifth, if a member wants to change their screen name they need to scroll under the chat window to where it says 'change your screen name'. if they've registered a different name they can select it and it will change to that name, or they can just click the down arrow and type right over where it says 'choose a nickname' and make up something new!!
sixth, if you want to give a member a free 15-day trial of VIP then they need the code: SYBIAN
*make sure to scroll through the rest of this thread as other members and models have added some great advice as well!*
GOOD LUCK to all of the new models.. i will try to drop in and say hi to everyone who responds to my posts just to be nice, so hopefully i'll see you all soon!
