Keeping Productive

Just because you’re not on a call doesn’t mean you need to sit idly by waiting.  Make the most of downtime with these suggestion that will help you improve and make more money!

• Use down-time to reassess your profile.  On TalkToMe.com you can always update your profile information.  Updated profiles remain fresh and attract new callers.  Take some time to look over your profile and see what might be looking a little stale.  Update your Summary and Descriptions.  Upload some new photos.  Make a gallery.
• Review your rates.  If your not taking as many calls as you like maybe your rates are too high.  Check out the rates of other talkers in similar categories.  If you are out pricing yourself, now would be a good time to make a change.
• Browse TalkToMe.com listings for idea.  Imitation is the best form of flattery.  Take a look at your competition.  See what they are doing, and what is working for them.  Learn from them and adjust your profile and strategies to benefit from their experience.
• Contact your old callers.  Have a couple of really good callers, take a moment and write them a thank you message.  Let them them know that you’ve enjoyed talking with them and that you miss them.  Maybe include a free photo to help remind them about you.
• Market yourself.  Get your name out.  Setup a Facebook account, tweet that you are on-line waiting for calls, put links to your profiles on message boards and blogs.  Promote Promote Promote!
• Brush up on your design skills.  Learn a little HTML or Photography.  There’s a wealth of information on the web.
• Create a new profile.  TalkToMe.com doesn’t limit you to just 1 profile.  If you are only using 1 profile, now is the time to look at creating another.  Look to attract a different type of caller with a new profile.
• Work on your script.  Every talker eventually builds a script of things to talk about.  Having these handy by you during a call is a great tool.  Use your down time to think of new ideas to talk about or clean up your existing script.
• Practice!  Practice working on your speaking tone, your vocal mannerisms, and your approach.   Refine your call skills without risking losing a caller.
• Do some research.  Looking to become a dominatrix, spend your down time scouring the web for sites in that fetish.  Read erotic literature, find blogs on specific topics.  The more information you have to support your profile the better experience your callers will enjoy, and the more business you’ll receive.

Those are just a few ideas to help you manage your down time.  Remember it takes work and effort to become successful.  Sitting on the couch watching TV between calls isn’t going to bring in the money.
