How to Start a Phone Sex Business and Make Money

There are quite a few misconceptions about phone sex business and phone sex business operators. For instance, many people believe that phone sex operator business isn’t fulfilling and well-paying. Also, quite a few web entrepreneurs perceive that women who embark on a career in the phone sex business are cash strapped. Well, I’m here to clear-up such myths and misconceptions.

Before getting started on how to start phone sex business, let me tell you that this business isn’t for everyone. It’s only for women who are empowered. It’s only for those who are open-minded. Of course, it entails several money-making endeavors. But without a positive attitude, there isn’t a career for naysayers in this industry.

Busting the Myths about Phone Sex Operator Business

Myth #1: Phone sex operators are promiscuous in real life

Reality: There’s little merit in this myth. It’s all about exploring sexuality without exploiting and compromising your integrity. You aren’t having sex with strangers. You are just having phone sex.

Myth #2: Phone sex operator business is a scam

Reality: I had the misfortune of collaborating with a couple of evasive companies. Truth be told, the adult entertainment industry is rife with fraudsters. If a phone sex business asks you for money upfront, it’s likely to be a scam. Otherwise, it’s okay to collaborate with legit phone sex businesses. Use your discretion.

Money

How much money can a phone sex operator make?

Your earnings depend to a large extent on the number of productive calls you get. The standard rate in the US stands at $1 USD per minute.

Let me share my earnings. When I first started as a phone sex operator, I was earning $60 a day. It’s been a little over 23 months. My average earnings per day are $300 USD. Of course, on a bad day, my earnings are just $60 per day. Weekly earnings are usually anywhere between $1500 and $2000 USD.  It’s no secret that phone sex business is not only well-paying but also fulfilling.

A few months ago, I started my own phone sex business. Is it worth it? Yes!

Here’s how to start a phone sex operator business.

Recruiting Operators

I recruited phone sex operators from the following two sites:

  • Adult Staffing
  • Sexy Jobs

Of course, there are classified sites like Craigslist.org. It’s a well-known fact that Craigslist is not industry specific. It’s generic. The aforementioned portals are industry specific.

Post your requirement on Adult Staffing and Sexy Jobs. You will get good leads.

And yes, there’s another way. You can recruit models from Omegle.com. Everything is free on Omegle.com. Here’s pure logic – If they can offer services for free, they can provide phone sex services for quick bucks. Makes sense!

Tips

Phone Name

Phone sex operators are suggested to not use their real name. To address privacy concerns, it’s important to have a fake phone name. No matter what, personal details shouldn’t be disclosed.

Skills

Phone sex operators should be able to keep their respective clients occupied and engaged. Excellent communication skills and marketing skills are required.

The conversation should flow naturally. Scripted dialogues should be avoided. Personality should be lively. Voice should be mellifluous.

Boundaries

Set boundaries. Of course, there’s no harm in exploring different kinks and fetishes. But awful behavior shouldn’t be encouraged.

For instance, there are many pedophiles. They want to have phone sex with children. They may request operators to call / address them as Daddy. Child pornography and daughter-daddy roleplay should be avoided.

Software

Managing multiple clients and phone sex operators is easier said than done. More importantly, managing calls on queues is tedious. If there’s an error, real-time billing and credit card authorization may go for a big-time toss.

It’s important to have a phone sex software that can forward live calls to multiple telephone lines and automate credit card authorization along with real time billing.

Scalability is another unmissable attribute. Your phone sex operator business should be able to handle at least 100 calls simultaneously and do much more as the demand ramps up. For this, a feature-rich turnkey software is mandatory.

Other advantages of having a phone sex turnkey script are:

  • Multiple payment methods: credit and debit cards
  • Ability to customize greetings and prompts
  • Real-time monitoring of calls
  • Decide business hours of operation
  • Fix per minute charges and other billing plans
  • Let the visitors know the availability status of phone sex operators
  • Detailed analytics and reports on daily, weekly and monthly earnings, number of productive calls, etc.

Schedule

Let your audiences know the business hours of your phone sex operator business. Keep introducing a new range of services such as providing short video clips (faces masked), nude images (faces masked to ensure privacy), etc. Do proper research and choose the turnkey phone sex script to build your phone sex operator business online.

You can sell pre-recorded audio clips as well. That’s another monetization channel.

Promote your business on adult content friendly platforms like Twitter and Tumblr. Use Reddit and adult forums.
