Looking for Advice, Studio Info, and Collaboration Opportunities as a New Male Model

[OnlyDrawer]

Hi everyone,


I’m interested in getting started with streaming and would really appreciate some advice from experienced models. I’ve heard that starting out as a solo male model can be a bit challenging — especially when it comes to building an audience, understanding platform rules, and handling the technical setup. Any beginner tips or guidance would mean a lot to me.


In the future, I’d also like to explore doing mixed (male-female) or group shows, so I’m curious about what kind of equipment, space, or permissions are usually needed for that.


Right now, I’m living with my family, so streaming from home isn’t really possible. Because of that, I’m interested in working with a studio or joining a team. I’d love to know how I can find a studio near me or what the best way is to reach out to one.


On a side note, I’m also into drawing and design — I can help with profile pictures, banners, or other visual designs for models or studios who might need them. It would be great to collaborate and contribute in that way while I gain more experience in this field.

I've been skimming through the posts here for a bit. I hope I'm not posting in the wrong place. I'm still trying to learn the site.

Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to share advice or info — I really appreciate the support.

Some important info is missing
first , your location if you're for example Colombian you may find a studio but if you''re , for example, dutch , then now way.
and even if you find a studio , what will make them want you ?

second , your motivation , some voyeurism is good but it should not be your main motivation, making income should be your main motivation.

and you already think about mixed shows ... if your girlfriend/wife wants to join then go ahead but if you think about collaborating with other (female) models
just know they are not interested in you.

So if you want to stream you really need your own place and don't think about mixed shows

I live in Türkiye, but I'll be going to Russia for my master's degree in the summer. I've been using Stripchat for 5 years. I think I've mastered the system. The only problem is the initial part. I don't think I'll have any problems communicating with customers.So, if I rent a house or office for myself, can I set up a studio directly? Is there any cost other than furniture and camera equipment? Do I need to establish a company? (

There used to be almost no broadcasters in my country, but its popularity has been increasing for the past 2 years (far less than in other countries, but at peak times there are around 40 active broadcasters at the same time).

If I manage to establish a studio, should I send an offer only to them (because there are 81 cities in the country I live in and it's even possible that there is no one in my city haha) or are there places like Fiverr or LinkedIn where I can find people who want to do this job?

I'm sorry it's so long and there are so many questions. If you can find the time to answer them, I'd be happy. Thank you.

So the housing problem is solved ...
But you should know Adult webcamming is illegal in Russia !
So all studio's are in fact illegal businesses.
If you reach out to a studio (if they want you, what i doubt) you make yourself very vulnerable as a foreigner in Russia
and they take 50% or more of your money.
If you cam from your home you can do that as a private person (don't tell anyone) and you have the advantage you
can make your payouts to your Turkish bank account (.. and pay Turkish income taxes ...)

I currently have a company in United kingdom for e-commerce I can allocate a budget of around $10,000 for this job.
(My goal is to get to know the market rather than making money in the beginning. I may be wrong, but at the end of the day, I believe it is an enjoyable job. At the end of the day, you have a low risk of losing . I've been using strip chat for 5 years and I want to move on to the other side of the business. )
What should I pay attention to when renting a property to set up a studio? Is it logical to rent a place in the city center or further away?
How many rooms should there be and how big should the rooms be?
From what I've talked to models in Russia, studios charge between 30-60%, depending on the model's experience and broadcast hours.
I think from what I understand from your writings, it makes more sense to establish a studio rather than opening a publication as a single man.
I guess what I should ask briefly is what are the requirements for setting up a studio and how much budget is required? Second As you said, what strategy should I follow to find a model? I cannot post a job on LinkedIn for an illegal job Do I need to contact models that already make carpets individually, or is there a website, system, or intermediary institutions for this?

Sorry for the long and boring questions, I appreciate your support.

I think the consensus here would be that you should just continue being a cam model and not try to run a business FOR other cam models since you clearly lack the business knowledge and experience required to do so. As highlighted below

what are the requirements for setting up a studio and how much budget is required?

what strategy should I follow to find a model?

Do I need to contact models that already make carpets individually

I also don't think you need people to make carpets
