Consciously choosing employment as an online erotic artist involves an investment in ourselves through education and inner self work.  The notion that sex work is easy money is greatly misconceived.

 We educate ourselves in a variety of topics such as business and how to market our brand, producing content and most importantly we learn about our own bodies.  What brings us pleasure, what we enjoy and what turns us off.  Learning how to release the shame we feel for holding a strong sexual presence and instead monetizing it as the asset it is.

 Taking the time to know what we are comfortable with and how to assert our boundaries.  Learning how to interact with clients, who to focus on and who to limit our responses to is key to protecting our energy.  Learning where to place our energy to allow for the best return.

Creating a virtual persona helps to separate our personal lives from the erotic role we play in content we create.  Building, developing and defining our brand to create consistency helps to attract clientele who are aligned with the content we create. 

When we first define our own moral and ethical boundaries we open the space to create and produce authentic content.  We are artists, content creators, models, photographers, producers, marketing and sales all in one.  Creating authentic content allows for our peace of mind, to be proud of the inspired work we do while maintaining the creative control of our brand.

 By using social media and sharing our free content we draw in potential clients.  Creating sales funnels by then linking to our exclusive content and services available only to our clients.  Regularly sharing, releasing and promoting new content helps build our following while connecting to different audiences over various platforms.

To create a sustainable income it is important to treat our content and services for what they are, part of our businesses.  Being self employed allows us to make choices based on what feels best and works for each of us.

Is sex work our first choice of work?  Perhaps not, but for many of us it is a valid choice and the best option available.  Allowing us to become financially independent with the space to pursue our first choices.

When we accept ourselves we allow the space to produce authentic content, drawing in our following based on our unique individuality. 

We are inspired and inspire.

We are worthy and give worth. 

We are loved and give love.

We are valued and give value.

We are artists.
