Branding is essential in every market. It’s purpose is to make the people which encounter the brand, more likely to remember it and then later become brand ambassadors. Branding applies to both companies and individuals and in the cam market it becomes imperative for each model to build and maintain a strong brand.

Today we will discuss about the process of creating a custom live Skype ID with the purpose of maintaining a model’s brand. At the same time, it will make it easier for members to find you and get in touch faster.

The key to creating a custom skype ID is to also have a custom email address with the same terms that you want for the skype ID. For example, if you want to create a skype ID for cute_blonde_goddess you should create an email address with the same terms and format. You can create a new email address on any mail client (Google, Yahoo etc) or you can set up a new one when creating the custom skype ID.
