how to become a phone sexoperator

Download Article

Working as a phone sex operator, or phone actress can be the ideal profession for those who enjoy making their own hours, working from home, and working creatively in the field of erotica. To become a phone sex operator, you must learn about the many different sexual interests, or fetishes you may be required to talk about with clients over the phone, then apply or audition for the phone sex company you want to work for.

Steps

1
Familiarize yourself with erotica and sexual interests / fetishes. Phone sex operators often speak to a variety of clients who have specific sexual interests, which will require you to be familiar with a wide range of topics; including bondage, discipline, and sadomasochism (BDSM).^[1]
- Read books, stories, and online materials that fall into the erotica genre.
- Perform a Web search using keywords such as "sexual fetishes," "common phone sex topics," or "BDSM" to learn more about various phone sex topics.^[2]
2

Determine whether you have any "taboos" that you will not feel comfortable discussing with clients. In the phone sex industry, taboos are defined as topics that you may be emotionally or mentally unable to discuss with clients for personal reasons. Most phone sex companies prefer to hire phone sex operators who lack taboos; some companies, however, are understanding and will allow you to have one or more taboos.^[3]
3

Make sure you have a room or space in your home that will allow you to conduct phone sex calls uninterrupted. For the sake of clients and professionalism, most phone sex companies will require that you work in a quiet space free of any background noise.
4

Search for open phone sex operator positions. Since most phone sex operator positions are remote and can be done from home, most phone sex positions will be posted online.^[4]
5

Verify the requirements needed to work as a phone sex operator. For example, some phone sex companies will require that you have a landline so your connection is fully clear when speaking with clients, while others request that you also have an Internet connection so you can search for and chat with clients online.^[5]
6
Verify that the phone sex company will allow you to use aliases to protect your privacy. Most professional phone sex companies will not expect you to use your real name when speaking with clients for privacy and safety reasons, and may request that you develop one or more aliases.^[6]
- Choose aliases that match up well with each of your phone sex personas to help you get into character. For example, if you will be required to talk to some clients using a foreign accent, choose foreign names that go with those particular accents.
7
Complete a series of online job applications and leave voicemail recordings, if applicable. ^[7] Many phone sex companies will not expect you to have professional phone sex experience, but you must have knowledge of sexual interests / fetishes and must have a nice voice.
- Practice reading a script that contains erotic content using your phone sex voice prior to leaving a voicemail recording for the phone sex company. Practicing while speaking in a sexy voice will help you feel more comfortable and confident at the time you call to apply.
8

Wait to hear back from phone sex companies and follow up as needed. After you have been hired, you may be able to start speaking with phone sex clients immediately.

Question

How do I start my own phone sex operation?

Jennifer

Community Answer

It's not a good idea to start your own company straight out the gate. Start smaller and work for a site first so that you can learn on someone else's money and client list.
Question

How do I sign up to become a phone sex operator?

You can sign up for Niteflirt or Talktome.com those are the most well known and have the best reputations.
Question

I have been trying to find a legitimate job in this field but I have had no success. How do I find one that is not fake?

Total Lip Service taught me how to work on a site called NiteFlirt. It is a site for phone sex pros but TLS has a training course that I took which taught me all the ins and outs about fetishes and making the call last longer. NiteFlirt lets you set your own rate, so I charge 1.99 a minute now.
Question

What sort of wages should I expect?

Jennifer

Community Answer

It starts out low, because you have to pay more to market yourself, e.g., .25/minute. But keep in mind, just because you're available doesn't mean that you are talking, so if you're trying to figure out what you make in an hour, you could really only be working for a fraction of a penny per minute.
Question

Are there any positions for just online messaging?

Yes, there are plenty of websites where you can sign up just to do online messaging.
Question

Do I have to pay a fee to be a phone sex operator?

I work for two sites, one called Niteflirt, another called Talktome. I paid no fee to either but I did have to supply a credit card to prove that I was 18.
Question

How much can I get paid for this job?

Jennifer

Community Answer

It depends on what you put into it: time, availability, taboos, how many regulars you have, etc.
Question

How do I know if my voice is sexy enough?

The people hiring you will probably tell you that they like your voice, or that it's sexy.
Question

Should they be asking for my social security and driver's license numbers?

They usually shouldn't ask for your social security number, but driver's license number is normal. Always Google the company name before providing personal infomation to make sure others have not flagged it as fake.
Question

Do you have any suggestions for sites where I could apply?

TalkToMe.com and NiteFlirt.com are two that only take a reasonable percentage.

Ask the phone sex company about the business name they'll use when issuing your paychecks and filing taxes. Since phone sex is viewed by some as a controversial field of business, most phone sex companies will develop aliases for their company name so you can keep the details behind your professional life private.
Look for phone sex positions that offer flexibility with hours, or for those with shifts that run at nighttime and on weekends. The majority of phone sex calls will occur late at night and on weekends.

Make sure that any phone sex company you work for will protect your privacy and anonymity. Having your real name and location revealed to clients can be potentially dangerous, so it will be important to find and work with a company that values your privacy and safety.
