Cam models, get creative with these smart ways to monetize your Snapchat and increase revenue from fans.
Do you use Snapchat? If not, here’s why you should get on it…
WHY SNAPCHAT?
Snapchat is a social media networking app, available for desktop and mobile.
Free to download and packed full of fun features.
Flexible options including text messaging, photo and video “snap” messaging, video calling and phone calling.
Snapchat is discrete. Messages between users are private and delivered in real time.
Privacy features: You can see if the other person screenshots or saves. This helps you to monitor their behaviour.
Chat history auto-deletes after 24 hours. This removes all chat which has not been saved.
You can make your Snapchat undiscoverable to those on your personal contact list.
HOW TO SNAPCHAT
Create a username which supports your cam/creator name (not your real name). It takes around 5 minutes, via Snapchat.com or Snapchat on the App store.
Have a play around with making photo and video snaps, and exploring the fun filters so you know what to do once you get your first Snapchatters on board. Click here to learn how to create snaps.
Sell your Snapchat for a reasonable subscription cost. Promote this on your cam site (if permitted), along with your content pages and social media.
Once you have some followers, make photo or video snaps. They view these on their snap feeds to stay connected with you.
Post daily, if you can. You can show off your look, personality and update fans what you’re up to in chat clips.
Give them hot teases to keep them interested, and bring them to you for interaction – which you then monetize.
Provide calls to action. Custom content deals, instructions to visit you on cam, information on your availability to “play” on Snapchat. Let fans know what their options are and how to request/book.
Post the links they’ll use to pay, or visit you online.
SUB PACKAGE
One of the amazing things about Snapchat is you can offer a variety of subscription options.
You can let fans subscribe for one week, one month, one year or a lifetime. It’s up to you how you price this. Keeping pricing on the lower side will encourage more fans to purchase and help you monetize your Snapchat.
Make it clear what you include with the subscription. You have messenger chatting and sext (sex texting), photo/video Snap swaps, GFE packages (Girl Friend Experience), video calls, phone calls and custom content.
Alternatively, you can offer your Snapchat subscription-free.
You would monetize it by promoting offers for any of the above benefits, to your captive audience.
Suggested subscription pricing:
One week £5 (or equivalent in tokens)
One month £15
One year £65
Lifetime £100
VIDEO CALLS
Monetize your Snapchat with one to one video calls. These are private and done over Wifi or 4G data.
Offer a time package such as 15 minutes or 30 minutes, with a one-off payment.
Let your Snapchatters know what they can do with you on a video call.
Ideas include masturbation, toy play, blowjob, femdom, roleplay, fetish, and shower or bath shows.
How about enjoy deep and meaningful conversations with your favourite supportive regulars?
Once show is agreed, have them tip prior to starting. This way you are assured of the money and they don’t benefit from your time for free.
A weekly GFE package should include calls, photos and sext as benefits. Fans pay up front a lump sum for the week. In exchange, give them the volume and frequency of the benefits agreed in the package.
Snapchat video calls are usually cam to cam, which means you both can see each other.
If your Snapchatter disables their video so you can only hear but not see them, this is because they wish to guard their privacy.
This should not bother you, however discuss preferences first, so there are no misunderstandings.
For video calls to be successful, everyone needs to be comfortable.
Suggested video call pricing:
15 minutes £20 (or equivalent in tokens)
30 minutes £50
60 minutes £75
One week GFE including messaging with a daily call £400-£500
PHONE CALLS
Monetize your Snapchat with audio (phone) calls. These work really well. Offer packages for time.
Shout out your phone call offers on your snap feed. Do this as a photo snap with text over the top (don’t forget to include how to pay).
Alternatively, do a video snap talking to your followers, hyping it up with a call to action!
With Snapchat phone calls you can indulge in phone sex, dirty talk, fantasies, roleplays, femdom instructions and anything else!
As with video calls, there is so much scope for creativity. I have personally used this feature a lot through my years of camming. It is a favourite!
Suggested phone call pricing:
10 mins call £15
20 mins call £25
30 mins call £40
60 mins call £65
SEXT PACKAGES
Monetize your Snapchat with sext packages, these are so fun! You can sext via the messenger-style text chat feature or by sending video snaps, pic snaps or voice notes.
Offer sext on a daily, weekly or monthly rate. Also offer short time period sext sessions such as 15, 30 or 60 minutes.
Make it clear how much time they get, along with frequency and method of messaging.
Snapchat sexting is perfect for masturbation, fantasy, roleplay, femdom and GFE chat.
Suggested Snapchat sexting pricing:
Daily sext £45
Weekly sext £250
Monthly sext £600
15 mins sext £15
30 mins sext £35
60 mins sext £50
PUBLISH OFFERS
Create a banner or flyer using a photo editing app. I personally love using Canva for this purpose.
Choose your best photo to add your offers in text over the top. Include your subscription deal, video call, phone sex and sext options.
Post on your social media and add your pay methods.
Instruct fans how and where to tip for the package they would like.
Let them know to provide their Snapchat username with their payment.
Add custom tip amounts for your Snapchat packages to your cam site (usually you can do this in a tipping menu or bio).
Once fans monetize your Snapchat, be responsive and interact with them right away.
Make sure you honour what they purchase and deliver amazing service – if you want them to monetize regularly.
STAY IN CONTROL
Here are my guidelines to monetize Snapchat on a continual and controlled basis:
Respond to fans in a positive manner, but don’t be a pushover!
Be aware of the individuals who regularly reward your time. Show these guys you appreciate them with extra attentiveness.
Be aware of those who do not respect your time, once on your Snapchat. You can always remove them.
Remind monetized fans to tip again for future engagements. Do this by posting your pricing at least twice per week.
Run flash sales, for example pairing up options at a reduced rate (or offer a freebie). Consider deals like custom video + free 20 min phone call package; 15 min video call + 30 mins sexting; free 15 min sexting with every subscription renewal. Deals often trigger action from fans.
If any fan creeps regularly into your DMs without monetizing your time, you can delete them.
Now you are armed with all the basics you’ll need to monetize your Snapchat, go ahead and make that dough!
