On Blue Ocean Camming And Skinny Teen Camgirls
I'm sure my friend had the best of intentions, and I don't doubt that there is a sizeable segment of the camming customer base that prefers its camgirls to be young, fresh-faced nubile eighteen-year-olds. But I couldn't bring myself to agree with it being the keystone of my brand.
The main reason why I couldn't see "18-year-old petite webcam model" being my calling card is that good marketing is about being yourself and doing what other people aren't doing, not pandering to trends. Pandering to trends ensures some quick success, sure - - but it forever condemns you to have to follow those trends around for the remainder of your career. I'm 21 years old, I'm well-traveled, well-read, and I really can't put myself in the headspace of an inexperienced 18-year-old.
The other reason is "petite skinny teen webcam girls" isn't a niche that's hard to get into. You have to be petite, you have to be skinny, you have to be a teen (or look like one) and you have to own a webcam. That's called a low barrier to entry.
And low barriers to entry mean more competition and more of a "bottom-of-the-barrel" mentality.
I'm no expert in branding, but it's common sense to me that a cornerstone of good branding is to "build high walls and deep moats" - - to create a camgirl brand that, by its quality and uniqueness, sets itself apart from all others. This is what I meant by "Blue Ocean Camming" - - based on the wonderful book "Blue Ocean Strategy", which talks about how good branding is about carving out your new niche, instead of cannibalizing others.
This doesn't mean I won't do content that flirts with the fantasies associated with young teen camgirls. It just means that if you ever see a video of me with some ludicrous title like "skinny teen camgirl tries to fit Daddy's thick cock inside her", it's just me playing around and having fun - - it'll never be at the core of what I do as a camgirl, which is a lot more nuanced, layered, and intellectually rewarding than just filming myself role-playing a tiny teen schoolgirl gagging on her teacher's cock (which might be fun, who knows, maybe I should try it sometime...)
