Yes I do. That's why I was saying that after a couple of weeks it can probably do a lot better.

I think it can do about as good as Streamate. But not some of the wild and crazy numbers that were being tossed about earlier. I did take some time and watched some of the other girls. I tried to stick to the skinny teen looking ones as they seemed to be the money makers on MFC

But most of them were pretty much just like going to an aggressive strip club. And then when the girl would start doing something you'd have one guy tip her like 400 tokens and then a thousand guys just kinda watching. lol

Keep in mind that 400 tokens is $20 Heck a thousand tokens is only $50 So making the "voyeur tips" is a hard row to hoe. CM made most of her money on there in "Group" Which was pretty much just like any other cam site.

Difference is that the model has no power over what she charges. So you really don't know what the heck you made until it's all over.

But yes, I think with time CM could bring her money on MFC up to par with what she makes on Streamate. But she would have to get used to being a lot more aggressive and beg for tips. And that is gonna be a major hurdle because that is the complete opposite of who she is and the image that we have built of her character over the last 3 years.

The other problem is...when you know you can make X amount of money on one site for an hour of your time, and you can only make Y amount of money on another site: How much money are you willing to lose while you build up a following on the new site with the theory that maybe it will one day make the same money?

It's kinda hard to get her to spend that kind of time. We have a pretty busy schedule as is. And even on Streamate she is lucky to be able to find the time to do an hour or two a day.

Don't get me wrong though...I think MFC is a real good cam site. And I can definitely see where a girl who is a "shark" at the strip club can do REAL good on there. BUT, having said that...those same girls can make a lot more at the strip club (especially when you throw in escorting). So I'm guessing they do MFC just because they are burnt out on going to the club, or their boyfriends are jealous and want them to do cams so they will be at home (I know quite a few girls who do webcam because of that reason)

I'm gonna try to convince CM to go on MFC at least a few times a week and see how it goes. If nothing else we may get a guy or two who has never seen her before and get a join out of it while making a few bucks at the same time. So it's a win/win for everybody.


EDIT: The tokens are 10 cents each. MFC splits 50/50 with the model So the model gets 5 cents per token. Just wanted to clarify that. So a guy tipping 400 tokens really tipped $40, but the girl gets $20
