More Tips for Growth on ManyVids – Store Item Descriptions 101

My first blog post with tips for growth on ManyVids is one of my most popular blog posts. The thing is… that piece just scratched the surface of what will help you grow on the site. I felt like we really needed a follow up post to start building on that foundation, and give you a few more things to think about as you go about conquering the world that is ManyVids.

Let’s do it, shall we?

Why Have Descriptions?

I am a writer by trade, having been in academia for 10+ years and working as a researcher in my desk gig. I have written hundreds of thousands of words over that time, with one of my longest pieces being a 30,000 word thesis.

But when it comes to writing descriptions for my videos and store items, I struggle to get a couple of sentences down. And it is a field you cannot leave empty, so like many of us, when I started, it would be like getting blood from a stone.

Here is one of my earliest clip descriptions:

Miss Sequence has summoned you again… and is going to put your sweet, tight mouth to some good use. It could be your ultimate fantasy… or your worst nightmare.
The Cocksucker by Rem Sequence

Hooly dooly, as we say in Australia. 2018 Rem Sequence thought this was great. However, 2022 Rem Sequence knows a bit different after 4 years reading and writing descriptions on clips and store items.

What is the purpose of a description? It has to do a few things: 1) Give the buyer incentive to buy, 2) Give an accurate description and 3) Give fuel to the clipsite’s search engine and Google itself.

All of these things are related so, let’s break it down.

Describe, Entice, Fuel That Search Engine

Giving an accurate description of the product helps the buyer know if the clip is for them. For example someone who likes dominant women in knee high socks but not barefoot would like to know what you are wearing on your feet and legs in the clip before buying it. At the same time, the description has to entice the buyer to purchase the item. Simply stating what happens in the clip is not going to be as appealing as adding in some spicy bits. I like to add questions into my descriptions as it feels more like I am talking to directly to the buyer. Personalisation is everything!

More about personalisation another time, because that topic is worthy of a whole book!

Your accurate and enticing description then gives the site’s search engine fuel, directing buyers to YOU. A search for “knee high socks” may pick up all your clips where you are wearing knee high socks – if it is in the description!

(I don’t know why I am obsessed with footwear right now, but here we are. Stay with me!)

Furthermore, do not doubt the power and reach of the words you put on the internet. Not only the words themselves, but the AMOUNT of words. This is related to Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and something many people much more experienced than me can provide you more information about, including Amberly Rothfield and

Ok. So my early clip description failed on all 3 fronts. It gives a little info about what the clip is going to be about, but enough to pay for it? Probably not. I mean, where is it set? What is Rem Sequence wearing? Who is this Rem Sequence person? The script is non-existent. It is a little enticing, so it has that nice spice, but the fact it doesn’t really tell me about the clip outweighs any flirty cheekiness there is hiding there. And finally… it is only 29 words long. Not even 50 words. What kind of fuel is this giving the search engines being used to find us?

Fuck. All.

Improving Your Descriptions

Alright, let’s fast forward to 2022 and look at one of my most recent descriptions. I am not saying this is absolutely my best work, but it can help me show you how I changed my clip descriptions.

It is your first day at your dream job; you have worked for years to get considered for a place at this company and you are finally here! The CEO, the formidable Rem Sequence, comes in to welcome you to the company and explain to you what your duties will be. After signing a million documents, you are now told that your dream job, in one of the top businesses in the world, is actually a scam. You now owe Rem Sequence a ridiculous amount of money for the privilege of working for her, in her sordid den of sadistic sex. As Rem Sequence explains, you will be sucking cock and getting your ass fucked for at least 15 hours a day working off your debt. And if you don’t work hard enough for your boss, you will become her personal toy. And she has very specific tastes. Congratulations, you are now a member of the Rem Sequence team.
Welcome To Your Dream Job by Rem Sequence

Alright, so probably the first thing you can see that has changed is the word count. This one is almost 150 words which is the sweet spot you are aiming for, but at least 100 words is a must.

Reading through the description, you can now get a feel for what is going to happen in the clip. You now know that it is a boss/employee fantasy with a debt contract and verbal humiliation (the line “as Rem Sequence explains” is where the reader will know that).

This is for a very specific type of fetish, and for fetish clips, you need to be using the language that your customers use to describe what they are looking for. Custom clip requests are the best thing for this, and I encourage my custom clip buyers to put as much info in their requests as they can. Send me an essay or a short story, I don’t care, because I will be able to look through them and pick out the words and themes that my customers use so I can include them in the descriptions. In the example I have given, “personal toy”, “dream job” and “privilege” are all words used in this custom request, and give a very particular feel to the clip.

The improvements that could be made to this particular description? I haven’t said what I am wearing in the clip which could sway a buyer or add more fuel to our search engine. “Pencil skirt” and “corporate wear” are valid tags and categories on sites so they are well worth including!

It may seem daunting and hard, and in the beginning it is! But once you start practicing writing descriptions with these guidelines, it will become easier and easier. So get out there and describe, entice and fuel that search engine!

PS. Huge thanks to Amberly Rothfield in helping me develop my skills with these basics which will assist you across ALL platforms, not just ManyVids. Please go and follow and support them as they do amazing work for models across the globe.

The Five Must Have Boundaries for Content Creators – Part 2

In the first blog post I wrote on boundaries, I talked about WHY it is so important to have them in these five areas. But what use is a why if you don’t have a HOW? In this follow up blog post, I will talk about how I maintain boundaries in order to stay happy and healthy.

With your TIME

The first thing you need to do when maintaining boundaries is to set them. Time is probably one of the easiest areas to do this in, as it is an objective measurement. For example:

When will you work?
When won’t you work?
When are you available for your customers (how much time)?
When are you not available?
How much interaction are you willing to give to potential customers (how much time)?

Once you have decided on these, don’t be shy about it; make it known. You can do this through your 1:1 interactions with people, embed it into your social media postings or posting on your sites. I am not available after 10pm every night or before 8am in the morning my time and I am pretty vocal about this. At this stage, this works for me. If it changes, I will make it known again. Consider it the opening hours of your business. The thing is, if people know when you are open for business and what to expect from you, then there is no pushback. Why? Because your clients/customers then accept that that is how you operate. You don’t have to be snarky about it, just matter of fact “I don’t respond after 10pm, I will get back to this in the morning.” Treat it like any other business would.

With who YOU are

We all have lives that are separate from our content creator personas, and although there may be some crossover, it is important to keep some distance between the two (for the sake of your mental health). This is difficult though, as we develop relationships with our fans, customers and clients, it is normal that we may start to share more about our lives than we may have at the beginning. Also, the way this industry is now, people expect a certain amount of personal sharing and connection with their favourite content creators. I maintain this boundary by treating Rem Sequence as a job, both in practice but also in my headspace. My fans and clients do not know my real name; I ask that my friends and people who know me in real life call me by my real name. I am not a big sharer anyway, so I find it easy not to share personal details in public. I think this is useful to think about in multiple ways; the content of your photos (keeping personal things out of them), when you talk about places you visit, things you enjoy. Although these can build relationships with your fanbase, they can also erode the boundary between YOU and your work. How much are you willing to share? What things are you going to keep just for you? When I am pressed about certain details, I have a few strategies that I use. Sometimes, I will make something up; other times I will just distract the person. Remember, you are in charge of what and how much you share of YOU. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

With your CASH

As with time, how we maintain boundaries when it comes to our money is a bit easier as it is something objective. Your payment methods, your rates and your pricing are all things you can decide upon and rattle off very easily when asked. How to maintain that boundary? My best piece of advice is to stick to your guns, even if someone gets pushy. Lots of content creators get worried about losing business or what others will think about them if they budge around their cash. If someone really wants to have a piece of you, they will work with you and not waste your time by arguing with you over a payment method or a matter of dollars. Let these people walk. Don’t even bother arguing, just politely excuse yourself from the conversation. You are costing yourself MORE money by justifying why you run your business in a certain way to people that are not invested in what you are doing.

With your PERSONA

When it comes to boundaries around my persona, I have found that the number one reason that I may budge on them is because of a lack of confidence in myself. If I feel like maybe I should explore area xyz because someone has asked me repeatedly about it YET it is something I am not comfortable with, then the reason probably is because of a loss of faith in what I am creating. The way I manage this is by surrounding myself with supportive and encouraging people who are knowledgeable in the business and can pull me up by the bootstraps when I need it. Instead of questioning and exploring my boundaries with customers, clients and random peers, I will go back to this group of supporters and check in with them. Nine times out of ten they tell me that my initial reasoning was sound and not to worry about what anybody else says. I think when it comes to our personas, having confidence in ourselves and commitment to the path we are taking is absolutely key. And the way to maintain this is through the people we surround ourselves with.

With your ENERGY

In my first post on boundaries, I talked a bit about how to maintain these around your energy. It is definitely easy to get sucked into working 24/7 as a content creator and it is just not healthy. In my opinion, the best thing you can do in this regard is to treat it as if it were a vanilla job where you are accountable to someone for the level of energy you put in. Develop a work schedule and stick to it. Incorporate break times/days into this schedule and make sure you future proof yourself for if you are in the unfortunate position to have to take time off. The number one thing is to work out how much you can do in the time you have, and know that some other creators may work more than you and some less, but that doesn’t make you any better or worse than anyone else. And if people make you feel bad about that… well, that says a lot more about them than it does you. Working with people can be incredibly draining, and you must develop boundaries around this and maintain them in order to remain consistent and survive in this industry. Once again, having a strong support network who can encourage and support you in your decisions around this is vital.

I hope this piece helped to address questions you may have had about how to maintain boundaries. However, in writing this, I realised one of the key things to success is developing supportive and encouraging relationships with other content creators and people in our industry. In my next piece, I will talk about finding your tribe and some guidelines I have found useful when building and maintaining my support network.

The Five Must-Have Boundaries for Content Creators – Part 1

Boundaries are important, in every part of your life. When I talk about boundaries, I am referring to rules you make around your interactions with other people. In the content creation industry, I believe they are mandatory and have definitely given me more clarity on where I draw the line on a number of things. In a previous post, I said I could probably do a whole blog post on my experience with boundaries. The response from the readers was “yes please!” So here are my five must-have boundaries for content creators.

With your TIME

Time is precious; it is something that once it is gone, you can never get it back. This is my number boundary area for this very reason. I have an extremely low tolerance for time wasters and for people who do not respect the boundaries I place around my time. I think it is important to look at your time in a number of ways, and make some decisions about what you will and won’t accept. For example:

When will you work?
When won’t you work?
When are you available for your customers (how much time)?
When are you not available?
How much interaction are you willing to give to potential customers (how much time)?

With my time, I have designated times when I am making content, online chatting with customers and fans, working on admin and answering messages. I am very busy in other areas of my life so I simply do not have time to waste. And if I want to get things done, then these boundaries must be rock solid. If people genuinely want your time, they will respect how precious it is and treat you accordingly.

With who YOU are

Here is a bombshell. I am not actually Rem Sequence. Crazy, I know, but hear me out. I actually have a life which has a little crossover with my model persona, but a lot of my life has little to no relation to my work. This is also a very important one to me, because I recently had an experience where my identity felt a little detached. For several weeks I felt extremely isolated because Rem Sequence is a part of me, not my entire identity. But when everyone you interact with knows you as this persona, all the other facets of you seem to drift away. The fact you need to remember is that you are not your model persona. Establishing boundaries around this so that you can keep some distance between the role you play for your fans and who you are when you are off the clock. Although this is important for safety (and why we adopt stage names for ourselves, protecting our real life identities from those who may want to exploit us), I think this is really important for our mental health. We are sharing extremely intimate parts of our lives, and exposing vulnerabilities at the same time. This can feel very unsafe unless we have ways to manage it.

With your CASH

Trust me. You know your business better than anyone and you know what works best for you when it comes to the almighty dollar. From how much you charge for content, to how much it costs per minute for you to provide a service, to the payment methods and timeliness of your clients paying, you are the expert. It doesn’t matter if Joe Bloggs got a 15 minute custom from someone else at a third of your rate (or twice your rate). It is completely irrelevant if Jane Smalls uses a tip or tribute function or if they think you shouldn’t use some other payment platform because the one you prefer isn’t safe. And one I think we have all heard a million times before: “I can’t pay through your method: do you accept any others?” If people really want to buy your content or services, experience tells me they will do backflips to do so and will not expect you to put the same effort into the negotiation.

With your PERSONA

As we develop in the adult content creation business, we finetune our persona and what we create based upon what we enjoy doing, what we are good at and what is successful for our unique situation. Some of us just make clips, some are stars of the photoset and merch whilst others smash it with live shows. For me, I know I have grown and stretched into other areas that I found I enjoyed. However, there will always be someone saying “why don’t you do xyz?” Or “I would love to see you do abc!” Feedback from our clients and fans is gold, but micromanagement from outside is a complete buzzkill. If there are services you are not comfortable providing, or types of content you don’t enjoy making, you are under no obligation to do so. Sometimes we may feel we have to respond to every request with enthusiasm and a can-do attitude, especially when starting out. But honestly, you do not have to. That is the beautiful thing about this industry; we have such a diverse and multiskilled community that there will be someone who would love to do what you don’t want to do. And the coolest thing about that? It leaves you open to do the things YOU enjoy and that make your work meaningful.

With your ENERGY

And now we come to my personal fatal flaw, and one that I am now making a conscious effort to work on. I have unrealistic expectations of exactly how much I can get out of myself and recently it backfired in a most spectacular way, resulting in a lengthy hospital stay. For those with ambitious, A-type personalities, this is going to be a struggle. I believe you need to be treating your content creation as if it is a vanilla job. You clock on and you clock off. You have break times and you have scheduled days off. If you are unwell, you be kind to yourself and you do not work. Working out how much you can do in the time you have is paramount. Some people are able to put more energy in, and some people less. I am here to tell you that that is totally ok, and that doesn’t make you better than or less than anyone else. The secret to success in this business is consistency. And if you do not develop boundaries around your energy, which, let’s be honest, is the fuel to this fire, then you are going to get a hell of a shock when you wake up one day to find the jerry can empty. Or like me, stuck in a hospital bed discussing the possibility of life saving surgery.

Don’t get me wrong; it is totally fine for your boundaries to change over time. After all, as people, we grow, develop and change our preferences and what we are comfortable with all the time. What suited me in 2017 may not suit me going into 2020. The thing is to be aware of it, to have these conversations with yourself and value you as the amazing and capable person you are. Because what is the saying? “You are worth it.” This post has really focussed on what areas I think you need to develop boundaries around. In a follow up post, I will talk about HOW I do this and offer some suggestions for how you could build them into your business.

The Ten Porn Commandments… for Independent Content Creators

Here are some things I have learnt while navigating the world of independent adult content creation. Subject to change…

1. Thou shalt always get cash first.

Do not deliver services without full payment first. Always get paid, then do the work. This industry is notorious for people who will try to get something for nothing. If someone will not pay upfront, keep on walking. I have heard every excuse in the book from potential clients and they are just that… baseless excuses.

2. Thou shalt be true to oneself.

It is tempting to look at what others are doing and try to emulate it or worse, get down on yourself because you are not like them. Personality is a huge part of this industry, and being the unique and amazing human you are will attract genuine fans your way. Sure, we can mould ourselves to fit whatever the mainstream fad is at the time, but for longevity, it is about building a brand which is consistent and true to yourself.

3. Thou shalt adopt a schedule and abide by it.

Consistent content creation is real work and real work takes planning. How much content are you planning on releasing and when? Build a schedule around this. Have dedicated time to work and dedicated time to rest. It will reduce your stress, take the pressure off of you and make sure you remain consistent.

4. Thou shalt always get high one’s own supply.

As opposed to Biggie’s commandments, you need to be able to get high on your work. You need to love what you produce. Grow to love your body and all its flaws. Accept your personality and quirks. If I create something and it doesn’t excite me, I can guarantee it will not excite my clients.

5. Thou shalt establish boundaries.

Boundaries are important, in every part of your life. Become an expert at establishing them and maintaining them. If it is your scheduled day off, don’t work and don’t let disrespectful people come in on your downtime. If you only accept a certain payment method, don’t change just because of a badgering client. If there are services you are not comfortable providing, don’t let anyone bullying you into providing them. I could do a whole blog on my experience with boundaries, and maybe I will…

6. Thou shalt make time for breaks.

This is a part of establishing a schedule. This industry is hard work and quarantining time to rest will serve you in the long run. It is mentally and emotionally not healthy to work 24/7, 365 days of the year. Be kind to yourself and schedule in breaks.

7. Thou shalt find one’s tribe.

Finding people who support you and what you do is vital. It is hard to find people in our “real lives” who understand the work we do. It is an incredibly isolating industry at times and it doesn’t need to be. Gather people around you to be your cheer squad and encouragement, especially when things get rough. Reach out to people who are likeminded and develop connections. By lifting others up, you will also be supported and develop your business.

8. Thou shalt not start drama and when one senses it, thou shalt avoid it.

It is very tempting to get involved in petty drama, including worrying about someone stealing clients, or making inappropriate clients or not being 100% honest. It is in your best interests not to concern yourself with this. Getting involved with someone else’s drama or starting it yourself is a good way to get branded as a troublemaker and unprofessional. Support your colleagues but avoid those who engage in drama. It will not serve you in the long run and is a huge waste of time in the here and now. Worry about you and your business, not the actual or perceived bad behaviour of others.

9. Thou shalt persist like one’s life depends on it.

Those who succeed and have longevity in this industry are those that are committed and keep moving forward. We all have bad days, weeks, months. We all have mediocre clients or hate-spewing trolls. We all have times we think “why the hell am I still doing this?” The key is to know that these times pass. The only way for things to get better is to hang in there. I am not saying you have to do this till the day you die; but think long and hard before deciding to quit. Take a break before making any major decisions.

10. Thou shalt know one’s business.

People think anyone can make some sexy content and make a buck or three. Wrong. There is way more to it than that. You probably know this by now, but I cannot stress it enough. Always keep open. Always try to learn more. Listen and seek advice from others. Really get knowledgeable on how platforms work, marketing, branding and production of content. It will make a huge difference not only to how you feel about the business, but your success depends upon it.

Visit www.remsequence.com for more info and to subscribe to my mailing list where you will get updates, specials and FREEBIES. I am also all over social media so come and find me to see me building my tribe, staying out of drama and knowing my business.

5 Reasons Why You Should Pay For Porn

Hey there, starebear…. Pay for my videos, I will last longer.

Back in the day, accessing porn took time and effort. You had to know where to get it and you had to pay for it (or get it as a hand me down from someone who had done the work to get hold of it). I remember the nude magazines at my local newsagent, with models hidden behind black plastic covers. The softcore porn in a private corner at the video store. Borrowing copies of XXX videos from my friends who had got them via weird mail order companies.

Now, all you need to do is open up your internet browser, plug a term into your search engine and bingo. You have access to pretty much anything your heart desires. The fact is that the internet was built for porn and is an outstanding medium to access it quickly and easily.

I believe that we need to maintain the values of the old days and continue to pay for porn. This may sound like a novel concept in a time when we crave immediacy, but maintaining the old values whilst embracing the new platforms we have at our disposal is really important. Here are five reasons why…

1. Porn is a product, like any other

Those photos, that gif, that clip that you viewed on the internet, is so accessible that we forget that this is someones work that they have put time, effort and resources into making for your entertainment. We are used to paying to listen to music, watch movies or tv shows, read books, so why are we not doing the same for our sexy content? Some say this is because there is so much freely available, we don’t put any value on it. The reality is that the stuff that is freely available is stolen from the very creators who put it together in the first place. Therefore, I argue that all it takes is a shift in mindset, from stealing content for your entertainment, to paying something for it. The ethical porn movement is a very real thing, and something I subscribe to wholeheartedly.

2.Porn is ridiculously cheap to buy

I am online most of the day working on promoting my own content and those of others. Porn is ridiculously, stupidly cheap to purchase. I know because I see the products people are selling everyday. Full length clips for $5, Premium Snapchat subscriptions (or “pocket porn”) for less than you are paying for Netflix per month, photosets containing hundreds of photos for the price of seeing a movie, live sessions with models for only a few dollars per minute. There is literally no excuse not to pay someone for something.

3. Paying for porn means you get what you want

What does your heart desire? Do you like MILFs? Taboo role play? Anal? Outdoor play? Couples? Group sex? Believe me, you can get your exact fantasy by paying performers for it. In my opinion, this is one of the best things about being able to access porn on the internet. You no longer have to stick with the rigid sexual fantasies of a chosen few, but you have a world of things to choose from. Explore, fantasize and design your own sexual adventures.

4. Porn is a legitimate job, and the only one available for some

Making porn takes time, money and resources. It looks like fun and games but there is a whole lot of stuff going on behind the scenes that you have no idea about. For some, creating porn is one of the few ways they have to make an income due to family/care commitments, health issues, disability, criminal records and lack of suitable employment where they live. Help keep someone fed and housed by paying for that little clip you enjoyed.

5. Help the porn industry grow

Paying for porn does something really important which may sound counter-intuitive, but makes economic sense. The more porn you pay for, the more porn there is available. It means performers can dedicate more time to content creation, making more amazing vids, photos and gifs for you to enjoy. It means the industry becomes diversified; if people are interested in a particular type of content and are willing to pay for it, it will become more available. It means we can keep people in the industry for a longer period of time which translates to more sexy content for the fans.

These five points are only the beginning… there are way more arguments for why it is important to pay for your porn, that I will explore in another post. But for now, I hoped I have convinced you enough that you are now willing to send a little tribute my way…
