Welcome to the discussion on Chaturbate private show pricing! This thread is a valuable resource for webcam models looking to set or adjust their private show rates on platforms like Chaturbate and mfc. Here's a summary of insights shared by experienced models:
- Many models start with a rate of 60 tokens per minute, considering it a standard based on comparisons with other platforms. Adjustments to pricing have been experimented with, but the consensus is that lowering rates does not necessarily increase the number of private shows, and can significantly reduce earnings.
- Some models have tried rates as low as 6 tokens per minute but found that this did not lead to more shows, leading them to revert to higher pricing.
- There's a shared viewpoint that cam shows are a luxury, not a necessity, and that lowering prices to appeal to those who find the standard rates "too expensive" is not effective. Quality clients who value the models' time and content are willing to pay standard or higher rates.
- Concerns about how minimum show lengths are set and whether clients are charged for the minimum even if they disconnect early were discussed. It was noted that on some platforms, clients must have enough tokens for the minimum time but are not charged for the full duration if they disconnect early.
- Different strategies for private show pricing on various platforms, including Chaturbate and mfc, were shared. Rates range widely, from 18 to 80 tokens per minute, with models emphasizing the importance of not undervaluing their work despite competitive pressures.
- Models expressed a preference for working smarter, not harder, by setting fair rates that reflect the quality of their shows and the effort involved, rather than reducing prices in an attempt to compete for more shows.
- Experiences with client attitudes towards pricing were shared, with many models noting that clients complaining about prices are often those least likely to pay for private shows at any rate.
This thread is a testament to the diverse strategies and experiences of webcam models in pricing their private shows. It underscores the importance of valuing one's work and finding a balance that attracts quality clients while maintaining a sustainable and rewarding business model.
