Advice to New TS models getting into the Industry

[Wendy Summers]

I'm going to list a few things I discovered along my journey... feel free to add your own.

1) Pick a stage name with starting with the letter "A"; "W" puts you at the bottom of every fucking list and page.

2) There is no such thing as too much lube.

3) There IS such a thing as too little lube.

4) Never beg for anything... well, that's not entirely true... beg for cock or cum, but only on film.

5) The bigger the cock, the better you need to clean yourself out.

6) There IS such a thing as too little lube.

7) Drama should remain on screen; not on social media.

8) Never insult your fan base; unless they are small dicked losers who get off on that sort of thing.

9) There IS such a thing as too little lube.

10) Making advice lists makes you look like a pretentious bitch; just don't do it.

my biggest piece of advice . want to make big big bucks working in the sex industry ... don't do porn stick to escorting full time instead :)


on a serious note -

just have a game plan and an exit strategem :)

liberty, you just gave ridiculously vague and nebulous "advice" - try that again but about 1000 times more detailed

you make excellent point Wendy....I would probably add a few things

1. take every job - the amount you get paid is not nearly as important in the beginning as getting your name out there and establishing your brand

2. do not spend the money you make on porn shoots - try to save as much of it as you can in order to create a financial security blanket for yourself.

3. the more porn you do - the more fans want to pay you to see them privately - don't ever forget that equation.

4. be nice to the male performers - the guys have long relationships with the directors - when directors need girls to shoot - who do you think they ask?

5. figure out how to earn income from as many different revenue streams as possible - hard work will pay off in the long run

I did this thread humorously but since we're getting serious I'm game.

I'll challenge your point 1 slightly...

If your goal is longevity and maximizing your long-term income, I'd argue taking every shoot is detrimental. Take enough work for folks to be able to find you but not so much you are over-exposed. My work for my solo website has far more value since if you want to see me, you've got to go there. It's a slower path demanding patience but it pays off over the longer haul.

On 2 through 5 I AGREE 100%!


Adding new points:


Christian is almost always right! I've never seen him give unwise advice to anyone. He also knows his shit on set - I learned a lot shooting with him.
Market & Promote Yourself - no one will do it for you

Is there such a thing as too little lube?

If you're trying to bottom for three hardcore scenes over a 6 hour period... yes. :geek:

[jamesedwards]

I want to get into the industry

[TSMichelleAustin]

And if ur too fat good luck getting over exposed! LOL

My real advice is....

Know who you are before coming into this industry! I feel too many girls come in this right after transitioning or during their transition and in long run it hurts their emotional growth! Also be yourself dont pretend to be like other girls!!!
