In light of pride month this June, we’re covering a frequently asked question for you this week! ‘I’m lesbian, can I still be a camgirl?’ is one of the most common queries online and the answer is simple – of course you can! The only criteria that applies to camming is your drive and dedication to the job.
Being a Successful Webcam Model
We’ve said before and we’ll say it again, anyone can be a camgirl, it doesn’t matter what you look like, what you’re into or how you identify, as long as you’re passionate about your job! It’s all about what you bring to the table, what you can offer your clients and your authenticity in doing so. It’s no secret that there is high competition within the adult industry, you must be a keen self-starter, with a fantastic work ethic and a drive to succeed.
In this role, you are essentially your own boss. Your agency should always be there to support you; however, you must be able to stick to your own schedule in order to gain a steady income, but also maintain a healthy work life balance.
Who to Cater To?
The majority of users on cam girl websites are men. The type of cam time a client may want can really vary. To keep yourself safe and to avoid any miscommunication, ensure that you state exactly what you offer and what you don’t in your profile. This way, all parties are clear on what they can expect going forwards. You will usually be catering to men and maybe you’re worried about that if you are lesbian or asexual? Well, you certainly don’t need to be!
Camming and being a camgirl involves a lot of acting. There are many hats you will have to wear – quite literally! When camming, it doesn’t matter who you are attracted to in your everyday life. So long as you enjoy what you’re doing online, you can always pretend to find the user attractive, if appropriate. They don’t need to know anything about your sexual orientation (if you don’t want them to know).
Every person has a niche and a type, so you could be catering for all sorts, providing you are comfortable. It’s more important that you can effectively engage with your audience. For example, you are a good listener, can hold a conversion and are fun on camera. This is what will resonate and stick with your audience, giving them a reason to return to your profile and build up your regular clientele.
Inclusive Content
When it comes to content, it’s all about being innovative and inclusive, because everyone is different and into different things. If you’re looking to include girl on girl content, you can always look to cam with another webcam model in person or online. Be sure to shout about any extra or new shows/content on social media, this way your clientele will know exactly what you’re offering and when. You could even run a pride themed competition where a client could win some private pictures of you and a friend. Or perhaps some colourful content, wearing a different colour of the pride flag each day of the week in your posts?
