Phone Sex Jobs - Help!

When I first started looking for phone sex jobs from home, I was utterly confused at how the industry worked and what I should actually look for within a company. Not only was I scared of what the callers would actually say but I certainly did not want to be ripped off and not paid for the hard work that I had put in - this in fact was my biggest fear. After I did my intensive and sometimes very boring research, I found that LiveLines appealed to me in a big way. Firstly, when I called the office, they actually picked up the phone and secondly, their friendly nature and experience of taking calls put me at ease straight away. Obviously, you can say that now I am very biased! However at the time I was not and I just desperately needed to earn money, just to pay for the basics of life.

I always love to point out to new operators what they should definitely look for when it comes to applying for a phone sex operator job within the UK. There are some crucial basics that every PSO operator should know before they start taking calls for a phone sex company and I have listed them below. Make sure that your work is safe, there is nothing more upsetting and deflating than working exceptionally hard and not receiving payment for all of the calls you took.

Make sure the Company is reputable:
I'm not saying that every NEW company is dubious but to work for an established company can give you that level of security that a new company cannot. You can always check out the longevity of a company by looking them up on the Companies House website. A company with a long trading history shows that the directors in charge ensure that their duties are always carried out and this normally equates to their clients and operators being paid correctly and on time.

Do your research
There are quite a few phone sex companies within the UK, each have their own unique working way when it comes to their Operators. Dissatisfied Operators normally voice their opinions and if a company has too many of these "opinions." It could mean that there is trouble brewing in the background. However with that said, every single company has an Operator or Operators that are unhappy with the job and they can translate this into a problem with the company. So although reviews are great, I would approach with caution and an open mind.

Does the Company have clear terms?
We always ensure that there are clear terms laid out for every Operator that applies with us. With regards to terms, we mean what is expected of you as an Operator, the pay details and the working hours. Also, it is good to note the companies regulations when it comes to taking calls. Without clear, written terms and lots of information about your phone sex operator job, how will you know what you are letting yourself in for? It is also good business practice to always give your operators clear terms because then everyone knows where they stand and pay rates cannot be confused. It is always really important to know the rates of pay, these should be available to you before you apply for the job.

Is the Company busy?
Normally you can get a good feel of this by doing your research. Operators will gladly tell you if a line is busy or not. If the line is not busy then your earning potential will be greatly affected. I am glad to report that here at LiveLines, we are exceptionally busy and we continue to show growth which is somewhere that we definitely want to be. The people that work in the office are always excited when we hit a new record in terms of calls and minutes and this is often celebrated as it is very hard work to continually grow your business.

Can you speak to members of the team?
There is nothing worse than calling a company and you cannot speak to anyone. It is scary enough to apply for a sex chat job, but when you cannot speak to a real human that anxiety can intensify. Our offices are open 9am-5pm Monday to Friday and we do have a 24 hour Supervisors line that Operators can use. It is so important for us to keep in contact with our Operators so that they can voice any concerns to us or ask any important questions.

Does the company offer you training?
Every job requires some sort of training even if it is very brief. Our training is automated and done over the telephone. It covers everything that an operator needs to know from the regulations to how you log on and off the service. I would be very surprised if a company did not offer an operator training before they log on for the first time.

Does the company hold a licence?
All Premium Rate providers needs to hold a licence or be registered with the Phone Paid Services authority in order to operator premium rate services within the UK. If an company does not hold a licence it is a massive red flag and I would not take any calls for this type of company. Although the licence is not a guarantee for you the operator, it does show that the company you work for is compliant and in line with the regulations.

When working from home and not coming to a place of work, it can always be a gamble at choosing the right company to work for. We are very passionate with our business and we have been here for over 20 years providing a good service to both our callers and operators.

Adult Chat Line Operator Jobs - Burnout

As with any job, there comes a time when you think ... I just cannot go on! Unless you work with your favourite animal or you are doing your dream job (like reviewing 5 star hotels in the Caribbean), there may be times when doing your "job" can get very tiring. With Adult Chat Line operator jobs you really have to pace yourself, if you don't then you will burn out within a few weeks! When you burn out, your call quality declines quite dramatically. Your callers can tell that you are tired of saying the same thing over and over again and that your connection with them is not as authentic as it should be. This can happen when you take call after call and you do not give yourself a break. You do need to take a break, so that you can replenish your "phone actress" abilities and increase your call minutes.

When you first started my Adult Chat Line Operator job, after settling into my personal shift pattern, I really did push myself beyond my limits and I soon found myself sounding very bored on the calls. It wasn't until a very experienced supervisor told me that I had to slow myself down and the reason why, I then actually took notice and decided to change things slightly. I wanted to do as many hours as possible because I desperately needed the money, but I also wanted my calls to be good so that I made as much money as possible. I decided to hatch another plan, I would keep the same hours but I wouldn't stay on for as long and I would do shorter "stints" of log on hours so that my stamina would be kept in check.

So, if you are an existing operator or you've just started your Adult Chat Line Operator Job, please take into consideration the following so that you do not experience Burn Out whilst logged on. It really is in your benefit to keep yourself paced so that your calls will be long in duration because it is all about generating minutes on the phone, this is the way to make money!

Burnout is very common with new adult chat line operators, they want to do their best and get in as many hours as possible but it can also be detrimental to their call times. So always take your time and set yourself realistic log on times and patterns that suit you, around your life. It is always easy to get carried away in the first few weeks of logging on and this is great but it is exceptionally hard to keep this up and that is why we always advise to pace yourself so that you do not experience burn out and quit altogether.

Adult Chat Line Jobs are a fantastic way to earn extra money from home. Using your voice to make money can be very lucrative and the good news is that we have lots of calls to ensure that you generate as many talk minutes as you can. Most of the office staff (minus the men!) have been where you are now, taking phone sex calls from home. We know the pitfalls, we know the tricks and we know how to make as much money as possible, Its great to be able to log on line, when you want to, knowing that you can make money when you want to. If you do want to sign up with us today and start your PSO adventure, you can be safe in the knowledge that we have the knowledge to make your journey as successful as possible.

LiveLines - New Help Desk Feature!

Firstly, I hope that you had a fantastic New Year and that 2017 brings you everything that you wish for! I love January because it is like a fresh start, it is time to push aside any negative thoughts and really get down to business. With this in mind, we know that excellent communication with all of our Operators is imperative if we want to continue to build our successful services. Without our dedicated Operators, our services would not run as smoothly as they do now, so we really do thank you for your very hard work!

We have set up a new Help Desk feature which will enable Operators to contact us even when the office is closed. The Help Desk is manned from 6am-11pm seven days a week and you can contact us about anything from wages, shifts, holidays and even feedback! We want to be more proactive and be in contact with our Operators more frequently because we believe that communication can really help, especially when you are working on your own from home.

To contact the Help Desk, please email: support@livelinesuk.com 

Opening the Support Help Desk is just one of the ways that we are improving communication. Soon you will be able to text into our support team and they will be able to answer any queries that you may have. The Help Desk feature is especially helpful for our international Operators who may find it hard to contact us during normal office hours, due to the different time zones. So, please do start emailing us your queries and we will respond ASAP. Please remember to include your PIN and PASS number with your email. 

What's Next? ........

We have so many exciting projects and services lined up for 2017 which will really benefit all of our Operators. We have a great team of technical geniuses that really do push the boundaries with their technical know how and they have some amazing ideas that will compliment every service that we offer. The new SMS service is in it's last testing phase and will be released within the next week, this service definitely has a different twist to it, which in my eyes makes it an industry first. 

Of course we are still heavily recruiting new Operators for work from home jobs because our traffic levels are incredibly high. Although we did not miss many calls over the Christmas period, we still want to reduce the amount that we did miss because every missed call, is an unhappy caller. We always monitor our Operator levels very carefully because we never want to inundate the services with Operators, so we do have spates of heavy recruitment but generally speaking there is normally a healthy flow of new Operators joining the service. 

Keep posted, for more exciting updates!
