What to Say to a Cam Model

Here's the secret nobody tells you: most guys in a cam room say the same three things. "Hi." "Hey baby." Or something we won't repeat. If you just manage to be friendly and a little bit interesting, you're already ahead of 90% of the room.

Mature performers especially notice the guys who actually talk. Here's how to be one of them.

The golden rules

1. Use her name. It's on the screen. Use it.
2. Be specific. Comment on something real: her outfit, her music, the painting behind her.
3. Ask open questions. Not yes/no. Give her something to talk about.
4. Listen and react. Respond to what she actually says.
5. Tip a little when you arrive. Even a few tokens says "I'm here for you."

Openers that actually work

• "Hi [name]! Love the music tonight, is that Fleetwood Mac?"
• "Hey [name], your smile just made my evening. How's your night going?"
• "Hi! First time in your room. What's the best thing that happened to you today?"
• "That's a beautiful room. Did you decorate it yourself?"
• "Hey [name], I've had a long day and you look like great company. What are we talking about?"
• "Good evening! Are you a coffee or wine kind of woman?"

Questions that get her talking

• "Where would you go if you could fly anywhere tomorrow?"
• "What's your guilty pleasure TV show?"
• "What do you love most about camming?"
• "What's the best compliment you've ever gotten in here?"
• "Are you a morning person or a night owl?"
• "What's on your playlist right now?"
• "What made you smile today?"
• "Best meal you've ever had?"

Flirty, but classy

You can flirt. She expects it, and most mature performers love it. Just keep it charming:

• "I came here for five minutes. That was an hour ago. Your fault."
• "You have the kind of laugh that makes a guy want to be funnier."
• "Confidence looks really good on you."
• "I'd love to hear more about that... in private?"

What not to say

• Demands. "Show me X." She's not a vending machine. Use the tip menu or ask nicely.
• Crude openers. They get ignored, or you get muted.
• Personal questions. Her real name, where she lives, her social media. Never.
• Haggling. Prices are set. If it's out of budget, that's fine, just say so politely.
• Comments about her age. Unless they're compliments. "You look amazing" yes, "you're old" no.
• Promises of big tips. If you say it, send it.

How to keep the conversation going

Share a bit about yourself. Your day, your job, a funny story. Conversation is a two-way street. When she asks you something, answer properly. And if the public room is too busy to really talk, that's your cue: take her private. Ten minutes one-on-one is worth an hour of competing with 200 other people.
