How to handle anxiety about starting phone sex

There’s something about phone sex that strikes fear into the hearts of even veteran webcam models. While phone sex can seem scary, it is still an extremely popular adult entertainment service, and it has far fewer equipment requirements to start when compared to camming. You can do phone sex from anywhere, while wearing anything – or nothing at all! There are 3 common fears that come up when performers talk about why they haven’t tried phone sex.

“I’ll say the wrong thing.”

Even the most experienced phone sex operator gets their words mixed up sometimes! Half of the time your customer won’t even notice, and the other half of the time you’ll have a little chuckle together. Plus, most phone sex callers will tell you if you’re starting to talk about a subject that they’re not aroused by or interested in, so don’t worry that you will accidentally stray into boner-killer territory too often. If you are worried that doing fetishes on the phone could have you taking calls in a direction that the caller doesn’t want, encourage them to speak up, and move slowly into new topics so that they have time to speak up and warn you away from their turn-offs. Ask questions as you go to check in with your caller as you move through the fantasy together.

“They’ll hang up on me.”

I won’t lie to you: you are going to get abrupt hangups. It doesn’t mean you’re doing a bad job, though! The two most common reasons customers suddenly hang up are the same reasons that customers suddenly leave a cam show: they came, or they were interrupted. Customers are very aware that they are paying per-minute, and some of them focus on that over good manners when it comes to thanking you politely and saying goodbye after they orgasm. Additionally, people get interrupted! A spouse comes home, the kids shout from the other room, or a work phone call comes in. Being hung up on does not mean that your customer was not satisfied or enjoying your call.

“I don’t have a good phone voice.”

I don’t think that anyone actually enjoys the sound of their own voice, but do you know who likes the sound of your voice? Other people! After editing hours of video and audio featuring my voice, I have come to the conclusion that it is terribly annoying, but I get compliments from callers on my voice all the time. Let your callers decide whether or not you have a good phone voice!

Starting a new service – whether it’s phone sex, clips, or a fan club – is always stressful and challenging. Don’t let your fears hold you back! With a little time and a lot of dirty talk you’ll be a phone sex pro!
