This is What I Would Tell Any Woman Looking to Get Into Adult Work

 

 

First off, let me preface this by assuming that by reading this, you are at least 18 years old. If you’re not, stop what you’re doing and exit out of this post. And if you are at least 18, keep on reading.

I’ve been in the adult entertainment business since 2012, where I started off as a webcam model and started doing full-on scenes in 2014. Looking back, I was really flying by the seat of my pants and figuring things out along the way, one day and one step at a time. My entire career has been this way, and I’ve not only had a fuckload of real-life, firsthand experience in the ‘biz, but I’ve also been fortunate enough to receive some incredibly kickass advice from industry veterans who believe in paying it forward just as much as I do.

Because when you get into the business (when I say “business” here, I’m primarily speaking to women who want to be an adult film star, and/or want to be an Onlyfans/fan site model producing adult content)…nobody tells you anything. Like, you will learn along the way. If you ask enough of the right people, you’ll gather a ton of valuable wisdom, tools and tips to take with you throughout your career. But it still shocks the hell out of me when I chat with random ladies online and hear stuff like, “I just want to make quick money online and not have anybody find out,” or “Onlyfans is easy money, all I have to do is get naked and people will pay big”…etc. (Neither of these are generally true, P.S.).

Here’s my best advice for women who are seriously considering getting into the adult entertainment industry. I’m neither advocating for it, nor am I telling you not to do it. Take this info and do with it what you will. Because the way I see it? Knowledge is power and it’s always best to be as informed as possible, especially before making such a big life-changing decision. 

  • Everyone you know will find out. Literally everyone. You know why? Because most people watch porn, regardless of how prudish they may seem in real life. Trust me, most people are fucking freaks in one way or another behind closed doors. It’s human nature! In 2020, Pornhub reported the site got 130 million hits PER DAY. Your family. Your friends. Your elementary school teacher. Your old soccer coach. Your coworkers from that fast food place you worked at in high school. In the Information Age, aka the world we’re living in right now where everyone and their great grandmothers are using the internet, it’s never a matter of if these people will find out, but when. Plan accordingly. 

 

  • Your entire life will be affected forever. Now, this isn’t a bad thing or a good thing. It just is. It’s 2022. Lots of people have sex tapes. Lots of people have Onlyfans. I personally think people are more open minded now when it comes to sex than ever before. Like, helloooo…it’s the reason why we all exist. You gotta pause and think about what you want your life to look like in 5, 10, 15 years from now. If you plan on doing porn and then being a school teacher, it’s not going to happen. If, however, you plan on doing adult work, stacking your cash, investing it, opening businesses, having rental properties, etc…basically taking full control over your future, that’s a completely different story.

 

  • There is stigma. The funny thing about this is, people in the adult industry are, for the most part, pretty fucking great. They’re open minded, non judgmental, secure with themselves, and are just overall cool humans. The stigma and weird judgy-ness doesn’t come from this crowd. It comes from other people (“civilians,” as performers call people who aren’t in the industry). People who have weird ass, convoluted views on sex and sexuality. People who grow up in environments that say sex is bad and carry that baggage with them through adulthood. People who are insecure over empowered women making a living off of the body they were born with while they slave away at a shitty desk job they hate. The list goes on. That said, while stigma does exist, it really depends who you’re involved with. Personally, I don’t fuck with anyone who’s weird and judgy like this. And if I happen to encounter it in my life, I don’t take it personally, because I know that other people’s opinions on this matter are not only usually false (so many people think porn sets are coke-fueled orgies when they’re wildly mundane and professional), but also come from their own limiting beliefs they’re projecting outwards that have literally nothing to do with me.

 

  • You have to treat it like a business. Assuming you’re going into this to be a model and earn a living vs. exploring your exhibitionist side as a fun hobby, it’s crucial that you treat it as a business. That means that not only are you a model, but you’re also a business owner. That means you have to learn the ins and outs of what it means to own and operate your own business. Everything from creating a corporation to keeping your financials organized to filing your taxes to marketing…it’s on you. I strongly suggest you put in the work early on and learn the ins and outs of each aspect of your business before hiring people to help you (aside from an accountant, and even then, you still need to pay attention to what they’re doing) so you’re not blindly trusting other people with your livelihood. This is also a good idea so that you can eventually train people in the systems you like best, because when you get busy with stuff like creating content and engaging with fans on fan sites, it’s nearly impossible to do everything yourself…and is also a recipe for burnout. For example, I have a virtual assistant who helps me keep track of my clothing auction site to make sure items are always being relisted, new items are being uploaded, letting me know when an order has been placed that I need to ship out, etc.

 

  • It’s work. Just like literally any other job, no matter how much you love it, there will absolutely be some days where you just don’t feel like getting up and filming. You have to be disciplined enough to be able to keep promises to yourself and show up for yourself (and your fans) every single day, and do what needs to be done…whether that’s custom content, filming new content, engaging with fans, etc. I still create and follow my own schedule years later, and always will. Holding yourself accountable will always be crucial.

 

  • It can get expensive. While there is good money to be made, it takes time to get there when you’re in the building process. You’ll need money for stuff like the fees to create a corporation, have cash flow so you can pay yourself – and your taxes – properly, wardrobe, testing (if you’re working with other talent), lighting, travel (if you’re collaborating with other talent who don’t live in your area), etc.

 

  • Create as many streams of income for yourself as possible. Whether you want to be an adult entertainer for your entire life, or have a plan to get in and get out in 3 years…whatever…it’s really fucking smart to take advantage of any and all money-making opportunities that align with you that you can create for yourself (literally just like any other business) so that you’re not just relying on one stream of income. This could include stuff like creating clip stores on sites like Manyvids ,  I Want Clips, and/or Modelhub. It could include offering your fans the option to purchase custom content from you on the above sites, or by sending you a tip on Onlyfans. It could include selling your special lingerie you wear in your scenes on a site like My Sexy Auctions. It could mean offering your fans to chat with you via phone or video call on Sext Panther.  It could mean creating a merch store. The sky is truly the limit here, but my point in all of this is that you absofuckinglutely need to have more than just one source of income coming in if you want to be able to make money off of your name while you sleep.

 

  • Mindset is everything. As an adult entertainer, you’re not only a business woman, but you’re also an artist. The lifestyle can be weird, especially if it’s not something you’re used to. It can also be incredibly lonely if you’re not living in a place like LA which is a super artist-friendly city. Stay in touch with your friends. Make new connections with other ladies in the industry and make a space for yourself in the community. Don’t compare yourself to other women in the industry. Ignore trolls and block them, letting their comments slide right off of you. Don’t let the weird opinions of other people on your life and your work get to you, because remember, they’re based off of their own world views and life experiences and have little to do with you. Live your life in real life, not just online. Practice self care.

 

  • Stack your fucking cash. Most women I know in the industry who are still around today have gone through this phase. I sure did! You’re suddenly making more money than you’ve ever seen in your life. It can be really fucking tempting to go spend it all in one fell swoop. While I am fully on board with treating yourself (Lord KNOWS I am extra as they come)…it’s all about balance, baby! I’ve been aggressively saving and investing the past few years and let me tell you, nothing is more satisfying, empowering, and SEX to me than logging on to my bank account and investment accounts and seeing those numbers grow and grow and grow. There are few greater feelings to me than being able to pay hefty bills without getting anxiety over not having enough money left until the next pay day. BIG BANK ACCOUNTS ARE FUCKING HOT. So is learning how to properly manage your money. Put in the work. Read financial books (I HIGHLY recommend anything by Robert Kiyosaki). Read magazines like Kiplingers. Listen to financial podcasts. I took a life-changing money course that completely changed my beliefs and views on money, taught by a super cool chick who just gets my vibe. This seems super boring at first, but remember…I’m a fake titty blonde chick who loves Sephora, Starbucks, spray tans, false lashes and pink. If I can fucking handle it, so can you. The worst thing you can do is blindly give your money to someone else to manage. That’s the lazy way out. Boss ass bitches do the work and stack their cash.

 

I LOVE sharing my own insight and resources for other ladies in the business to use. Was this helpful for you? What more do you want to learn from me? Comment this post with your questions, suggestions, etc.

ASK AL: ONLYFANS AND HOW IT’S CHANGED THE ADULT INDUSTRY

 

 

 

You asked, I answered! 

 

HAS ONLYFANS CHANGED THE ADULT ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY?

Dear Alix, 

Onlyfans is EVERYWHERE. Has the adult entertainment industry changed because of it? Is it changed FOREVER?

Yes.

Onlyfans has been around for a handful of years now, but it’s popped OFF especially in the past year. And yes, it has changed the entire industry, but in a GOOD WAY.

For performers, Onlyfans has been a MASSIVE game changer. It’s shown adult performers that THEY are the ones with the power, NOT the production companies. As in, it’s shown adult performers that THEY can go and produce their own scenes for their fan club members, as well as earn a living, just from providing that incredibly special and intimate experience for their fans.

When I first got into the business, the number of women I knew who were focused mostly on producing their own content (I was one of them, still am) vs. the ones who were just going full force filming for companies was a small percentage compared to a massive one. The way things were then was that your agent would book you for a scene with a studio. You were paid a flat rate for that one scene for the day and that was that. Just like going to the office and working your desk job for the day.

Onlyfans has opened up a LOT of performers’ eyes to the fact that they can produce their OWN scenes (and collaborate with other performers of choice to do so) for their fans. In addition, they can make residual income from those scenes for literally EVER. It’s short-sighted vs. long-term. For me, personally, I’m a big picture person. So I would much rather spend my time producing my own scenes that I can share with my fans however and whenever I want, FOREVER.

For example, I can share a scene on Onlyfans, then post it on a site like Manyvids a year down the road, then post a preview of it onto Pornhub…vs. if I go work for a company, I’m paid a flat rate for that scene and I have zero residuals or ownership of that scene. So a company can pay me $1,500 for a scene and then make $20,000+ off of it (this is common, BTW).

This is why it’s annoying for performers to hear from fans that they’ve “retired” just because they’re no longer going to set and instead are producing their own scenes. From a business perspective, it’s smarter to produce your own scenes. BUT…it’s also fun to collaborate with companies for cool passion projects! And some performers just fucking LOVE being on set.

It’s ALL OK. 

In addition, Onlyfans is the shit because it allows performers to give their fans intimate access to their worlds…whether that’s in the form of professionally-produced, high-end scenes, or just pulling out the camera during an intimate moment at home in the bedroom and hitting the record button. It gives fans DIRECT access to their favorite performers. Like, I LOVE more than anything the fact that I can DM directly with my fans and cater to each one’s specific desires. It’s like a combination of a virtual strip club and a Starbucks (lol). Fans can order stuff like custom videos, voice notes, photo sets, etc. all custom-tailored to their personal desires and fantasies.  

The sky is literally the limit. 

Having that extra income from Onlyfans every month, simply put, gives performers OPTIONS. If you don’t feel like going to film for a studio, you don’t have to. Some performers are strictly producing their own scenes for Onlyfans now and not going to studios anymore because they make way more money from working less (which isn’t a BAD thing. It’s working SMARTER).

PLUS, producing your own content, as a performer, gives you complete control over who you collaborate with, the kind of scene you film, and literally every single detail in between. Which, in my opinion, just makes for a BETTER, more organic and HOT AF scene. It’s that vs. just going to set to work for a company where you’re told who you’re working with, given a script and a scenario to act out, and are paid a flat for the day, zero residuals.

Onlyfans also gives performers freedom to work from wherever the hell they want. In theory, I can literally go anywhere in the world whenever I feel like and still be able to film and take hot pics and vids. 🙂

All in all, Onlyfans just gives performers more options and also allows them to further monetize and expand their businesses. And, even if Onlyfans were to suddenly disappear tomorrow, there are other fan club sites out there, like Fancentro, so this business model is never going to completely go away. That said, yes, I do believe that the adult entertainment industry is forever changed because of it.

 

IS ONLYFANS AN EASY WAY TO MAKE MONEY?

Dear Alix, 

Is it easy for someone to hop on Onlyfans and make a ton of money? It seems like anyone can do it.

This is a wildly common belief but is also absofuckinglutely not true. Let me explain. 

IF you are, say, an Instagram model, adult actress, or hell, any sort of person who has a presence on social media and a fuckload of followers ALREADY, then yes, you can do very well on Onlyfans because you’ve already got the audience for it AND you already know that producing content for Onlyfans is a must if you want to do well with it.

For someone who falls into these categories, it’s going to be easier for you than, say, someone who’s starting with a blank slate with no presence or followers because you’re starting from scratch, so you have to build all of that, too.

But even if you DO fall into any of the above-mentioned categories, it’s still a lot of fucking work. In my world what that looks like is DMing with my fans twice daily, taking new photos and vids, filming new scenes, organizing them, sending them out, etc. PLUS filming custom content on an as-needed basis…and it’s doing that every single day. Literally. I don’t think I’ve NOT posted on Onlyfans in like two years. That’s just me. I’m super structured and this is how I run mine. Some people I know are way more chill with it, but I believe in consistency AND delivering for my fans daily. It’s a personal preference.

If, on the other hand, you’re JUST starting off with a blank slate, it’s also going to be a lot of work for you because you’re not only doing stuff like interacting with fans on Onlyfans, taking new pics, vids, filming new scenes..you’re also doing stuff like growing your fan base on social media and promoting your content (which you STILL need to do even if you have a fuckload of followers from my first example) but when you’re first starting off, for a lot of people, it’s challenging because you’re fresh to the scene so you’re trying to find your vibe and figure out what kind of scenes to film, what kind of stuff your fans are into, what YOU’RE into, that kinda thing.

(^^^^I know this was an entirely run on sentence but I don’t care because this is my site, my rules. heh heh.)

All in all, regardless, Onlyfans is a lot of fucking work, but it’s also a LOT of fun! Just like any other business, it’s easy when you love the work you’re doing because it doesn’t feel like work. I can easily go 12 hours of filming back to back to back to back photo sets because I’m having a blast playing dress up knowing that my fans will love what they see.

If you’re thinking about starting an Onlyfans for yourself…or perhaps you’re just curious, and want to learn more about how it all works, I also wrote a FREE e-book that shares how I make 5 figures a month on Onlyfans (which anyone can do if you follow my guidelines).

You can download the ebook HERE. 

If you’d like your questions answered, you can email my team (and it’s totally anonymous, P.S.) at teamfantasyfactory@gmail.com, and I’ll be answering away right here as well as in my “Ask AL” series on Instagram Live.

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

Blank Instagram Post

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…

  1. Offer monthly memberships for a fixed price as well as monthly membership bundles for fans who want to pay for longer up front
  2. Sell exclusive photo sets and videos
  3. Do live stream shows and set up a tip menu for your fans
  4. 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. 

If you’re ready to get your freak on (and let’s be real here, you’re already on your phone all day anyways. You might as well make money while you’re scrolling Instagram) click here. 

 

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!

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?
