Sh*t to Do in Your 20’s so Your Life is Awesome

I VIVIDLY remember going to college, graduating, and being thrown into the real world, real quick. I got my first “grown up” job (clearly that life was NOT for me) and went about figuring my shit out. I’ve had a rebellious streak since, well, day one of my existence, and always been hell-bent on creating my coolest, most awesome, fun life possible. and THANK GOD FOR THAT.

Because without this tenacity and out-of-the-box way of doing life (I’ve ALWAYS been one to take risks, be ballsy and go after what I want) ingrained in me that came from god knows where, I would be one miserable motherfucker, probably still letting my soul die slowly every day at my desk job.

ICK.

But even with my personality and way of doing life being what it is, I STILL had a rude awakening after graduating. Point blank, I felt like I had been sold this LIE. I had spent years working my ass off to get this degree, was working on another degree, and was working at a desk job doing mundane work that I DID learn a lot in, but was still super boring. All I could think was, “Holy FUCK. I can’t believe THIS is this life I signed up for…for the next 40 or so years. FUCK this shit. There has to be more for me out there.”

Canadian Studies and Math B were NOT going to help me figure out how to make money on my own, let alone figure out how to invest it, do my taxes, or start a corporation.

I was determined to figure all of this out and would be damned if I had to spend the rest of my life sitting at a desk working for someone else. So, I did…thanks to endless brain-picking of successful entrepreneurs I knew as well as one of my BFFs, Google.

Here’s all the shit I figured out and started in my 20’s to set myself up for a lifetime of fun, financial security and freedom over my own schedule…and LIFE..

Start a retirement account. NOW. I opened my first Roth IRA at 22 because I knew I should. Did I know what the fuck I was doing? HELL NO. I stumbled around in the dark and slowly figured my shit out along the way. For a long time, all I did was deposit money and not invest. Then I started learning about investing. Then I started investing. The point is…just START. Even if you’re just putting $20 a week in. Even if you’re just putting $40 a month in. JUST. START. Be consistent with it. Commit to learning about investing. I am the LAST person I thought would be interested in investing (I used to think it was super fucking crusty and boring, but it’s actually REALLY FUN to see your dollars multiply)! I read books. I subscribe to Kiplinger’s. I read blog articles. I listen to podcasts. There’s literally no way around educating yourself about money. Either you do it or you stick your head in the sand and emerge 10 years later to be broke as fuck. Your call.

Start stacking cash. Just like above. This is something I DIDN’T do for a while – I moved around a lot in an expensive city. I had a lot of expenses. I was putting my cash back into my businesses (which IS investing in myself for the long haul, but it’s still important to have extra cash). This shit ALL adds up. I make it REALLY easy for myself: I use the Digit and Acorns apps to automatically pull money out of my accounts each week. I also have my payroll take out a certain amount each time I’m paid and it goes to a separate bank account. I also have autodrafts on another account that goes to ANOTHER bank account that I don’t touch. This makes it an efficient AF and a literal NO-BRAINER, and let me tell you, it is SO motherfucking satisfying to see those numbers grow…and grow…and grow. People are weird about money, as I once was, but there is nothing noble about being broke. Don’t you WANT to live in your dream house? Drive your dream car? Look your best? Feed yourself the best of the best food? Have a cash reserve for when you have surprise random bills that come up, like the rock that went through my windshield last week? You can’t do that if you’re broke. And how good does it feel to have cash in your account? You feel like shit when you don’t. And once again, it doesn’t matter HOW much you save. Just START. Trust me…it WILL add up.

If you want to do something, just start. When I restarted my life to move cross-country from NY to LA in 2014 to do adult film, I had an agent and a place to stay in LA. That was IT. I started filming. My scenes were NOT good. When I first got on YouTube and was trying to find myself and figure out what kind of content to produce, my vids were NOT good. When I first got into my music project, the shit we would put out was NOT good. My point here is, if you REALLY want to start something, whether you dream of being an “influencer,” coach, actor, whatever…just own the fact that you’re going to fucking suck for a while. It’s going to be a lot of work with little reward for a while. Sometimes years. You either want it or you don’t. Stick with it and eventually you WILL get your momentum. You WILL get good. You WILL make it all happen. But you HAVE to have an attitude of “I’ll do whatever the fuck it takes to get to where I want to go,” and NEVER quit. There’s no shortcut. But would you rather create your dream life, or stick to what your friends and family think is a safe, “practical” (EW) job with a steady schedule and salary…even though you want to gouge your own eyes out every day? Both paths are challenging. Pick one.

Get comfortable being alone. I’ve been an introverted extrovert since…forever. As in, I fucking LOVE people, but I also LOVE being by myself. I love reading, writing, and just being quiet and cozy. Some people HATE this. As an adult, you’ll have bouts of time where you’re alone with your thoughts. You’re not in school anymore, so you’re not constantly surrounded by your peers. You can’t AVOID it. Plus, you should be your own best friend. So just wade through the uncomfortable-ness, one day at a time. I also found that the more time I spent by myself, working ON myself (doing shit like reading, listening to podcasts, just LEARNING) I grew to trust my own intuition over anything or anyone else. As in, I stopped asking people for their opinions on shit. I started making my own decisions…confidently. And there is NO better feeling in the world than knowing that you 100% have your own back at all times. Of course, you NEED help from other people. We’re not meant to do life fully ALONE. Everyone has different life experiences and areas of expertise. What I’m getting at here is to just get comfortable being alone with your own thoughts, and entertaining yourself. And, if you’re an artist and/or entrepreneur, this is double crucial. Quadruple crucial, even. Because this is also the place from where your best work and ideas will be born.

Outsourcing shit you don’t wanna do. We only have X amount of time in each day. Sure, you technically CAN spend hours at the grocery store, cooking meals, cleaning your house…but do you really WANT to be doing that? Don’t you want to spend your time not working on more fun stuff? (unless this stuff IS fun for you). Even when I was making peanuts, I would still get my groceries delivered and split a house cleaning with my roommates so I could spend my free time ENJOYING myself. Now, of course, I’m a boss lady and genuinely LOVE to work, so I spend my time working and earning money and outsource as much shit as possible to other people. Life is meant to be enjoyed, so don’t spend your time doing stuff that’s mundane and annoying. Working smarter vs. harder and creating jobs for other people…yes, please.

Don’t buy shit you can’t afford. I remember when I was 18 and got my first credit card, which I promptly maxed out at Abercrombie and Fitch, spending it like a gift card. Then I forgot about it and it took me years to get my credit score un-fucked. Debt isn’t BAD. It’s neutral. And credit cards are a good thing to use. I also never learned ANYTHING about using credit cards, or financial management growing up. But racking up a fuckload of debt on your credit card just to buy material shit that’s cool in the moment and getting overwhelmed and freaking out over the balance…NOT THE VIBE. I pay my credit card off every week now, and set monthly spend limits for myself to keep myself on track. AKA….just be responsible. If you’re treating yourself to something fabulous to reward yourself for crushing it at work, and you spend from a place of knowing you will pay it off…that’s one thing. If you’re out having shopping sprees because you’re using shopping to fill a void that could be remedied with a creative outlet or fun hobby (BEEN THERE), that’s another. Nothing is hotter than feeling good around how you handle your money…and a big bank account to boot.

Get serious about your self care. In your 20s, you can get by with little sleep, eating crap, and it doesn’t show on the outside…yet. But eventually, it does. Think of your body like a Ferrari. You get ONE Ferrari to take care of to get you through life. If you don’t drive the Ferrari, it’ll rust. If you put shitty fuel in your Ferrari, it won’t run NEARLY as well as if you use Premium. You get it. And if you don’t, what I mean here is take care of your body. Get your 8 hours of sleep. Start a fitness regime NOW. Start eating well and fueling your body with real, nourishing food NOW. Done right, you’ll feel like you’re aging in reverse when you’re in your 30’s and beyond. I seriously look and feel better at 31 than I EVER did in my 20s. It gets WAY more challenging the older you get, with more responsibilities piling on right and left, to get a grip on this shit. Getting to a point where self care becomes a crucial, non-negotiable, no-brainer part of your existence makes it REALLY fucking easy for you to stick with it for life.

You’re the only one who’s in charge of you.

You’re the only one who’s responsible for the kind of life you create…and the kind of person you become.

Set yourself up for a lifetime of maximum awesomeness early on makes it all one big non-negotiable no-brainer…for life.

And trust me, if I can do all of this…so can you.

No excuses.

Dirty Details: How I Make Cash Stacking EASY

I have a confession to make.

I used to be TERRIBLE when it came to handling my money. Like, really fucking terrible.

I mean, yeah, I am the type of person to be super duper hard on myself and hold myself to high standards, so I may be being dramatic here, but compared to my current standards of living, my financials were a fucking DISASTER.

For YEARS.

I never learned about it growing up. As a whole, we were comfortable. I lived a great life full of private lessons, tutors, new clothes, new furniture for my bedroom…but at the same time, there was also always a super hectic, scared, stressful, anxiety-filled energy around finances in my household.

That’s all my parents would ever argue about. The environment in which I grew up was that money was a scarcity (untrue), you had to work hard for it (partially true), and that other people who had a lot of it were very different from me (untrue).

I don’t blame anybody for this whatsoever. PLENTY of people have this attitude. If it’s all you know to be true, then that’s your reality until you decide to change it.

Some lucky humans are born into this existence, and the rest of us who want to get there have to put in a lot of fucking time and effort to basically rewire our brains. It is what it is.

Needless to say, this entire experience made me absolutely terrified of money because I saw what it did to my family. So I avoided learning about it at all costs.

I at least always understood that you had to work hard for it, and got my first job at 14 coaching figure skating, but I never understood how to properly manage it. I was the girl who at 18 got her first credit card and used it like a gift card at Abercrombie and Fitch, proceeding to max it out and pretend it never happened for a few YEARS after, until I realized one day how dumb it was that I was not only letting all this unnecessary interest build up, but I was also singlehandedly fucking up my credit score.

I can go on and on about all the dumb shit I did when it came to my finances on the hot mess express train that was for the most part my entire 20’s. Like way overspending on a car that I didn’t know how to negotiate for.

Like agreeing to terms on contracts that I didn’t properly read the fine print.

Like not using a credit card with points for YEARS and therefore missing out on thousands of FREE airfare miles. Stuff like that.

The GOOD news is, I’m WAY beyond that period of my life (thank GOD). I woke up one day, decided enough was enough, hired a couple incredible financial coaches who were living the lifestyle that I wanted to live, took some online courses, listened to money management podcasts, and basically made it my mission to be one rich bitch.

When I left my 9-5 job in 2013, I did it with the intention that I would one day be able to give myself the luxurious life that I had never had. That I would be able to live a REALLY great life, be able to take care of the people closest to me, be able to have the power to DECIDE what I wanted to do as well as have the FREEDOM to live my life exactly as I wanted to, be able to create and help people in all the ways I knew possible, be able to give back to causes that I’m passionate about…the list goes on forever.

I basically realized that the path I was on was not going to take me to where I wanted to go, so I had to switch gears and get on a new one.

What I find both funny and fascinating about finances is that it’s similar to porn: it’s a part of everybody’s life yet many people are hesitant to openly discuss it.

I’m thrilled to say that I am now, finally, on my perfect path, and while I’m a work in progress (aren’t we all?!) all the little baby steps I’m taking now are adding up to give me the secure, fun, and fabulously abundant life I desire.

Here are the dirty details as to what’s made stacking paper foolproof and EASY AF for me.

LEARN HOW TO SAY NO.

I live in LA. There is ALWAYS a TON of stuff to do in LA. Every single day and every single night, indefinitely. I get invited to do a lot of this stuff. Hell, I get invited to do stuff OUT of the city, too.

99% of which I turn down.

Why?

Aside from the fact that I’m introverted by nature, time is my most valuable resource. I will never, ever, EVER get my time back.

Being extremely picky with my time gives me MORE time to think of MORE ways to make money, and act on them.

I follow the “it’s either a hell yes or it’s a no” rule when it comes to activities. As in, if someone asks me to do something and my initial gut instinct isn’t over the moon excited enough to say “HELL YES!“ then I politely decline.

If I don’t feel initially excited and feel like I “have to” do something for the sake of doing it because I feel like I’m supposed to, then that’s a massive red flag that it’s not a good fit.

You are being of absolute zero service to yourself or others if you say yes to things you don’t really want to do, which usually means you show up being semi-there because your brain is somewhere else and you’re agitated you “had” to show up.

Nobody wants to be around a person like that! Save your “YESes” for only REALLY dope shit that you WANT to do, and treat your time like the gold it is.

Trust me, you’re doing everybody a favor by only engaging in what lights you up.

2. AWARENESS.

Once upon a time, I would check my bank accounts every so often only to make sure I had enough to cover expenses and then not bother again until I paid my bills. Rinse and repeat.

This is obviously a terrible (and dangerous) habit.

The ingredient I was missing here was awareness. As in, being extremely aware of exactly where my money was going.

I do a proper comb-through on all my accounts around once a week just to make sure I don’t have any weird charges I don’t remember or autopays on stuff like subscription services I no longer care about.

I usually always find SOMETHING. Like, I was recently double charged by my eyelash extension place on accident and would never have known this without checking! I was also recently TRIPLE charged by a business service I use for $300!

You bet I called them immediately and got my $600 back. Last week I discovered I still had a few Amazon “Subscribe and Saves” being shipped out to my place in LA (I’m currently in my home state of NY for lockdown) which I quickly cancelled and was refunded.

The list goes on.

Know EXACTLY where your money is going. Not only does it…well, save you money, but the feeling of empowerment that comes with this responsibility is pretty damn great.

3. APPS.

I have two money saving apps that I’m completely obsessed with. The way I do life is “make everything as easy for myself as possible.” Like, what’s the point of being stressed and worrying over something that can be easily automated so you don’t have to think about it? (I automate all my bills as well).

But anyways, these two apps have been a godsend for me for stacking paper. Here they are:

Digit:

This is the app that’s helping me set aside cash money for two future homes, future cosmetic procedures (because lord knows eventually my silicone tits need to be replaced. Or removed. I’m 100% going to want a face lift when I’m old and wrinkled. Maybe I’ll even decide to get bolt-ons. Might as well prepare now!) as well as a couple accounts for emergencies and fun money for a random celebration splurge when I hit a business goal. Like a designer backpack or a cool trip.

Whatever I feel like. Digit connects to your bank account and analyzes your income and spending patterns, so it teaches itself how much is safe to save.

It automatically takes out money every few days, and it adds up. QUICK!

Click here if you wanna start stacking for your dream house in Aspen, your perfect man cave or vacation to scuba dive in Bali. Whatever floats your boat.

Acorns:

This app is really cool because it has graphs that let you see how much money you’ll have each year based on how much you’re putting away now. It’s insane how much of a drastic difference putting away even $200 a month can make for your future old-person self.

Like, an extra $50,000 difference.

IDK about you but my future self is gonna be REALLY fucking happy with an extra $50,000. Not only that, but it also allows you to invest your funds into a portfolio of choice.

Mine is currently on the riskier side because I’m still young, with more stocks than anything, but this is completely customizable.

You can also create your own emergency savings account with this app, and what I REALLY love about it are the “roundups,” which means you can take random change from charges on your accounts and stash it into savings.

Click here if you’re ready to join the party and STACK YOUR MF CASH.

4. FIGURE OUT HOW TO CASH OUT ON STUFF YOU ALREADY LOVE.

I have a saying that I repeat to myself all day, every day: “Everything I do is monetized.”

This means that I ALWAYS prioritize making money, whether it’s for RIGHT NOW or for the long haul.

This is my default mode at ALL times.

And guess what? I have ZERO shame in sharing this.

Having a fuck ton of money means I get to have the freedom to live life exactly as I want to. It means I can create things for other people that will be tremendously helpful to them.

It means I can contribute to the world at a high level of service. The more I make, the more the world benefits. I think people underestimate themselves and their abilities to do this.

By, like, a LOT.

And BTW, just because you may work a traditional 9-5 which is your only source of income doesn’t mean you’re limited to just that one stream of income. By any means.

No matter what your background is, there are billion and one ways to make money as well as save it. You just have to get creative with it, be willing to think wayyy outside the box, and ASK for what you want.

I cannot even begin to tell you all the random wonderful things that have happened in my life simply from me reaching out and asking.

For example, it’s no secret I’ve had a fuck ton of cosmetic work done to myself and will continue to get a fuck ton of cosmetic work done to myself for the rest of my life.

And let me tell you, syringes of facial filler at $600 a pop all over one’s face year after year gets expensive.

So one day I decided to slide into my local medspa’s DMs just to see what would happen, and now we have a beautiful long-lasting relationship in which I go in and get my filler and botox and all my fabulous skincare treatments at no cost.

In return, I pimp them out all over my social media. So now I am no longer spending thousands of dollars a year on cosmetic work.

Are there parts of your life that you’re spending money on that you could exchange your services for instead? The key here is to GET CREATIVE.

I’ve also recently been going IN on affiliate marketing. Like, there’s this one cannabis delivery service in LA that I use ALL the time for my edibles, so of course it makes sense for me to share my affiliate link on my social media anytime it makes sense.

I give people credit to use a dope service, and I GET credit to use with said dope service. Everybody wins!

And, PS, just because you may not have a million followers doesn’t mean this won’t work for you. Don’t make excuses for yourself!

People are social creatures and always want a piece of the pie. As in, a piece of whatever their friends are currently raving about. I only share products/services with my followers that I personally know, use and AM OBSESSED WITH myself.

So it’s gotta be the real deal. You can share affiliate links on Facebook to your 200 friends and still be able to earn money and/or credit towards your favorite products/services that you would be spending money on anyways.

Do you have any holy grail cash stacking tips? Fill me in.

Now let’s all enjoy the fuck out of life with a fuck ton of money together, k? And fuck anybody who tries to tell you this mentality is anything but fabulous. Seriously.

Resource Guide: How to Cash the F Out in Adult Entertainment

For those of you who don’t know this, I joined the adult industry in 2012. I’ll share my full story another time, but in a nutshell, I had a series of events in my life occur that eventually led me to quitting my “real, grown up job” to be a full time webcam model.

Fast forward another 2 years and I had moved to Los Angeles to be a porn star.

What can I say. When I decide I want something, I go get it.

Again, story for another time.

I will be eternally grateful for my stint as a cam girl BEFORE getting into porn for a multitude of reasons, the most important being that I learned the art and science of the hustle that would later save my pretty little future ass time after time again as scene cancellations, flaky talent, surprise surgeries and, you know, random life shit that causes you to lose or spend money unexpectedly comes up.

As an adult entertainer, you’re equal parts artist and entrepreneur. And just like any other situation in which you’re working for yourself, it’s absolutely crucial to have MULTIPLE STREAMS OF INCOME.

What does this mean, exactly? It means that you want to have as outlets set up for yourself as possible so that you can make sure you’re always getting paid. It means that it’s a death sentence to put all your eggs into one basket.

Frankly I think it’s impossible if you’re working for yourself in this day and age anyways, but I’ll say it just in case.

If you work for yourself you NEED to set yourself up for success, not to mention protect yourself in case one or even several of those income streams goes through a slow period. Which WILL happen. Because life.

Plus, if you already chose work for yourself, therefore deciding that you and you alone are going to be responsible for your earnings, doesn’t it make the most sense to make the most money possible if you’re going through all this trouble?

Even if you’re not a porn star. Even if you’re not a full time adult entertainer. Even if you’ve never done any sort of work in this field whatsoever, but you’ve been thinking about dabbling in making anonymous porn with your wife for some extra monthly cash flow.

The bottom line is to do as much as you can to set yourself up for maximum success. Ain’t nobody got time to half ass anything!

So, without further ado, here are my absolute favorite spots in cyberspace for adult fun that bring in that oh so sweet cash money every month.

And yes, this is a long post. But anything worth having takes effort and work. How bad do you REALLY want it? 😉

ONLYFANS

At this point, everyone and their mother (and probably grandmother) has heard of Onlyfans. The big thing I see on social media as of lately is people tweeting saying stuff like, “Well if _____ job doesn’t work, there’s always Onlyfans!”

AGAIN, this is a discussion to be left for a different post, but I will say this: just because people can and do make BANK on Onlyfans (some of whom are selling nudes and/or are adult entertainers) does not whatsoever mean it’s an easy venture.

Onlyfans is an absolute FUCK TON of work.

Ultimately you’re building and nurturing a fan base and community.

For those doing really well on there and making a living off of it, and I can personally attest to this, it’s a full time job.

But ANYWAYS. I’m OBSESSED with Onlyfans. Like, OBSESSED. It’s kinda like when I was a cam model. The site I was on at the time, My Free Cams, was an open platform.

So basically you had to create everything from scratch. Your profile, your tip menu, your member clubs, your videos…everything. That’s how Onlyfans is.

There are essentially infinite ways to make money on Onlyfans for adult entertainers. You can…

Offer monthly memberships for a fixed price as well as monthly membership bundles for fans who want to pay for longer up front
Sell exclusive photo sets and videos
Do live stream shows and set up a tip menu for your fans
Sell custom videos

….these are just a few ideas. But do you see what I’m getting at here?

The sky’s the limit! I also happen to love the fact that it lets me connect with my fans on a more personal level.

They can really get to know me. We have fun, we joke, we banter, we chat about life. We celebrate birthdays.

It’s a really cool way to take the whole fan experience to a brand new level.

If you’re ready to give Onlyfans a whirl, see what all the hype is about and cash the f out, click here.

PORNHUB

I remember when I first got into the industry in 2014 and a lot of the sets I went on would talk shit about Pornhub all day.

“They’re stealing from us!” “Porn will never be the same because of them!” and I get it. Before streaming sites, porn was a different animal.

People did become easy millionaires. Sets were catered with chefs. Girls were flown out to exotic locations all over the world for shoots and paid double, triple the going rates now.

VERY different times. And when Pornhub was brand new, it WAS the wild wild west for pirated scenes.

But it’s all changed. Just like any other business model, industries evolve. And it’s up to those in said industries to evolve, too, if they don’t want to get left behind.

Last I checked, Pornhub was getting something like 100 MILLION hits a day. They’re the 13th most visited website in the world.

Yep. Let that sink in for a minute. Imagine, as a brand new talent, you have the opportunity to be exposed to THAT MASSIVE AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC as often as you wanted to. What do you think that might do for you?

So, when I decided I was going to go ALL in on porn all those years ago, I immediately contacted Pornhub. I wasn’t even on the site yet! I asked them to list me as an adult star, made myself a profile and posted a few scenes.

A couple of them were full scenes, and a couple of them were edited down specifically for the site. Like a movie trailer of sorts, but a whole lot spicier.

The idea was to give the humans juuuust enough sexy time and leave them wanting more.

I made sure to watermark every video with my Instagram handle back then so people could find me, and as time went on I gradually started adding watermarks that directed people to other places they could find me, like my texting app and clip stores.

I never stopped doing this. And, to add to the icing on top of this oh so delectable cake, I started doing my research.

On Pornhub. Not “research” cough cough I mean watching porn pretending to do work (lmao).. I mean actually going on Pornhub to see what people were watching.

Checking in consistently to see what videos were top ranked and how, if at all, they were correlated.

The first huge trend I started to see what people could NOT get enough of was…you guessed it….STEPDAD PORN.

So I started making Stepdad porn. I posted one video, MADE IT COMPLETELY FREE, and it BLEW UP. Like 10M views blew up. I think it’s at like 20M now. But the point is, I made ONE video ONE time and made like $10,000 in the first wave. Off of one video.

IN A LITTLE OVER A MONTH.

That’s NINE TIMES MORE THAN I WAS MAKING FOR ONE BOY/GIRL SCENE MY AGENCY BOOKED ME FOR DURING THAT TIME. I DID IT IN LESS THAN AN HOUR WITH A FRIEND.

AND I’M STILL MAKING MONEY OFF OF IT TO THIS DAY.

I didn’t start working for myself to make every day a struggle for money. I started working for myself so I could make a fuck ton of money on my own accord in the easiest way possible while having fun.

Work hard, but also work smart. Ya feel?

And, as time went on, Pornhub added more and more features. Now models have the option to create cool stuff like their own fan clubs, sell video clips, and offer custom videos.

I’ll leave it at this: whether you’re a seasoned adult industry professional or brand new to the scene, use Pornhub to your advantage. Make Pornhub your best friend. Pornhub is Queen. And they’re here to stay.

If you wanna hop in bed with me and the overlord of porn, and make some serious cash, click here.

SEXT PANTHER

There’s something about Sext Panther that just strikes me right in the nostalgia chords. Like, PHONE SEX! It reminds me of when I was a kid and would see ads in the back of Playboy magazines, “Call 1-800-HORNY4U and let’s get WILD!” with a super hot blonde chick with huge tits in a bikini.

In the world of adult entertainment, it’s just, like, ICONIC.

And it’s soooo fucking fun.

The way Sext Panther works is you get to set up your own price points for everything. You can charge for your phone number (disclaimer: this is a number you get to choose yourself. Everything is super discreet. You will never see your fans’ real numbers, nor will they see yours).

Once your fans have access to your phone line, it’s off to the races!

You set your price points for each text message you send, along with picture and video messages. You also set your price points for phone calls (as in, how much you want to charge per minute for phone calls).

I’m a firm believer in premium everything when it comes to my brand and business, and there’s no reason why you shouldn’t be, too.

Charge the maximum you are comfortable with because you are a fucking prize. You’re a luxury.

Of course, that means you have to BE a fucking luxury. Walk the walk. Give these fans an experience of a LIFETIME and then some, or else you’ll be left with nothing but some measly fast cash and no fans in sight.

Always think long term! (And do your best to BE the best).

The phone calls are my absolute FAVORITE part. Sometimes you’ll be texting with a fan and they’ll want to crank up the heat and carry on the conversation the phone.

Sometimes you’ll just get calls from out of the blue from random numbers (I used to just pick these up always, but as my life got WAY busier, I now I keep it more structured and have the fans schedule their chats. Plus, it gives them something to look forward to).

Sometimes they’ll be watching one of my scenes and decide they want to level their entire experience the fuck UP and call me while they’re watching me get my freak on. And sometimes, people just wanna talk.

I’ve had times where I’ve been on the phone for 2 hours, just chatting about life.

I will also say here, on a more serious note, that if you do this, sometimes it gets heavy. Sometimes fans will call and they’re going through some crazy shit and they just need someone to talk to. This is a massive responsibility.

I’m usually comfortable taking these calls and can navigate them gently, with love and compassion. And if shit ever does get REALLY serious, I am able to refer them to a service for professional help. This is few and far between, but just know that this is something that can potentially occur.

And if you’re not comfortable interacting with these types of people, you also have every right to express your discomfort and refer them to someone else.

And, on a lighter note, sometimes you’ll wake up to a bunch of photos of a micropenis from 20 different angles, asking you to rate it. Sometimes you’ll get a surprise call from a random fan who won’t tell you anything until you’re on the phone, and then he’ll share his huge fetish for gymnastics matches and want you to roleplay with him right then and there.

So you not only gotta be down for a whole lot of randomness on the daily, but you also gotta be able to think on your feet and have a HUGE creative brain.

It’s not for everyone but if this sounds like something you’d THRIVE on, DO IT.

You can also have fans tip you to make custom videos and even Skype shows, too.

All I can say is that it’s a great fucking time.

SNAPCHAT

Wanna know a secret about me? Sometimes I’m really, really averse to change. Like, sometimes I have to be dragged through the waters by my toenails by my manager, Matt, kicking and screaming, in order to get my ass on the latest trendy app. What can I say? I like what I like and I like things as they are.

HOWEVER, I also fully understand that being my own boss means that a lot of times I have to do shit I don’t always initially wanna do, because it’s not fucking about me. It’s about my fans and giving them the best experience and the most FUN I possibly can.

So a few years ago, when Snapchat was really poppin off, Matt badgered me NONSTOP for weeks to get on there. I finally did it, begrudgingly, and frankly just to get him to stop harassing me about this stupid app.

And of course, once I was on, I immediately fell in love with and became obsessed with it.

This tends to happen a lot. Lmao.

I won’t sit here and explain how Snapchat works to you, because I know you know how to use Google, but I will tell you that it’s REALLY rad. I find that Snapchat brings in a lot of my younger, college-age fans, who are an absolute boatload of fun.

I run my premium Snapchat account using Fancentro, which makes things super easy and organized on my end. You set your prices to charge fans per month (I’m a big fan of the bundle deals)! Anddd that’s really it!

Like everything else, the rest is up to you to promote. You can run this any way you like. I like to mix things up and keep everyone guessing as to what I’ll be posting next. Sometimes I’ll upload a full on hardcore sex scene and sometimes I’ll post a video of me with a cat filter dancing around my room butt ass naked.

Whatever tickles my fancy at the moment. And I love to surprise my fans and randomly send my subscribers text messages here and there.

Snapchat’s one of the lowest maintenance ways to bring in the cash money, but of course, like anything else, you get what you put in.

Happy Snapping!

MODETIZE

I saved this one for last because it’s, well, different than the others. Different in the sense that it kinda just brings everything all together. Like a pretty pink ribbon on a perfectly packaged present (now say that ten times fast)!

Modetize is a website created by one of my good industry friends who worked his ass for for YEARS as an independent adult film creator and network owner, starting from scratch and working his way up, learning everything there is to know about the business of porn as well as learning about the most common problems we face as artists.

So basically, this guy REALLY knows what’s good. Which is very easy to see with this incredible platform he built.

Modetize is different in the sense that it’s more of a TOOL to make your life as an adult entertainer 10000x easier. Let me explain.

In the adult community, there are a TON of stores on the interwebs where you can sell video clips (everything from homemade to professional, specific fetishes, ASMR…you name it, it’s a “THING” that’s been done and that’s got a community who’s fond of it. I mean, anything. Like videos involving bouncing on balloons until they pop. But I’ll save that for a different post).

Along with these clip-selling sites, there’s also a bunch of fan club sites.

When something in the adult community does well, like any other industry, people hop on that shit real quick and create lookalike platforms. Boring AF if you ask me, but hey, I don’t make the rules here. I just play the game.

So needless to say, Onlyfans and Fancentro popped off and now there’s a bunch of other lookalike fan club sites with a similar vibe.

SO what Modetize does is allow models to upload their scenes to all of these platforms. AT THE SAME TIME.

So, for example, let’s say I make a really hot sex tape and I want to share it across all my accounts on all of the clip stores. Normally this would take hours. I can personally attest to this, because I don’t even want to think of all the probably hundreds of hours I’ve spent sitting in front of the glow of my laptop, uploading each individual clip to each individual store with their own specific previews, GIFS, titles and tags.

So instead of spending half a day uploading a couple of your latest video clips, you log on to Modetize, sync up all your clip stores (all you gotta do is log in), upload the video and info, select the stores you want to upload your scene to, press “Upload,” and BOOM.

It uploads your video to ALL THE STORES AT ONCE AND YOU NEVER HAVE TO THINK ABOUT IT AGAIN.

And if you’ve got fan clubs, like Onlyfans and Fancentro, you can also use Modetize to upload everything from your full length scenes to short video clips.

Now, I will say that this means that yes, you have to go to each individual website, register for an account and set up your store. This takes time. But once you’ve done that ONE TIME ANNOYING THING, you can use Modetize to upload your scenes to all of them. AT ONCE.

This one is a HUGE GAME CHANGER, guys. Modetize was designed by a performer, for performers. They just GET IT. I’ve already uploaded like 40 scenes using this site and I’m never going to stop using this incredible tool.

It frees up my time so I can focus on what really matters: creating hot AF art for my fans.

So there you have it, friends. The top tools and resources, hand selected by me, for you, that you need to start cashing out in the business of porn. The world is your oyster.

And as far as I’m concerned, we should ALL be able to get our freak on, have a blast, AND buy ourselves a nice new car. Or pair of tits. Or a house. Or a dream vacation. Actually, all of the above.

We only get one life, so why not give ourselves the gift of financial freedom so we can properly enjoy it?
