[LIVE] Teams Pay-Per-Minute Shows Now at SkyPrivate

On May 5, Skype will be officially retired and replaced with Microsoft Teams Free.

So, you might be asking yourself right now:

What services can I offer on SkyPrivate after Skype transitions to Teams?”

Let’s give you some clear answers.

In this blog post, you’ll find:

  • All the services you can offer right now at SkyPrivate 
  • The new solutions that are soon to come

Let’s get started.

What’s NEW: Teams Pay-Per-Minute Shows! 🚀

Great news: now you can offer Teams PPM shows, too, at SkyPrivate.

That’s right, Teams has been integrated with the pay-per-minute plugin.

How do you set your plugin so you can start doing — and charging for — pay-per-minute calls on Teams?

Here’s how:

How to Activate Your Teams PPM Services – 3 Steps

  1. Add your Teams invite link to your SkyPrivate account > Services (if you haven’t already) > See HOW and your Teams User ID > See HOW
  2. Log in to the pay-per-minute plugin

How to Log into the Plugin 1st Time Using Teams >


Once you’ve activated your Teams PPM services, all your shows will happen there – members will be able to contact you directly on Teams. Skype will no longer be available for PPM calls. 

Other Services You Can Already Offer at SkyPrivate

Besides Teams pay-per-minute and prepaid shows, at SkyPrivate you can already offer:

  • Discord pay-per-minute and prepaid shows

So, stay tuned. More good things are yet to come at SkyPrivate after May 5…

$ Create your SMART pricing strategy $

You already know how important is to attract new members or to reward members that are with you for a long time. And this is where we want to help you even more!

 

First: we do not say to change your price per minute. Because if you lower it, you will earn less money (and we do not want that) or if you set it higher you may get less customers (again , less money for you).

Here’s the strategy we thought of:

Let’s say that your regular price/min is $5. Promote to your customers that you can offer x minutes FREE chat AFTER each paid call longer than Y minutes ( you know better your members and this is where you can set the number of free minutes)

The steps would be (example):

  1.     You inform the member that if the call will be longer than 10 minutes you will offer him another 5 minutes for free
  2.     You make it clear to him that technically those 5 minutes are charged at $0.1/minute rate
  3.     He starts the call with you and spends 10 minutes.
  4.     You go to your skyprivate account here https://accounts.skyprivate.com/user/prices/ and find his skype ID in the list and set the price per minute for THIS caller to be $0.1
  5.     You ask him to call again. Let him know again that this time he only pays $0.1/min and this offer is limited by the system (hey, blame the limitations on us, so that he does not try to exploit this and bother you in the future about this pricing)
  6.     After 5 minutes you got another $0.5 but more important you got another 5 minutes added for yourself , a reward for that member and the knowledge that he will surely come back to you.
  7.   Do not forget to return to https://accounts.skyprivate.com/user/prices/ and set back the price/min for this member to $5

 

What do you think of this? Do you have anything else in mind, other ideas regarding the smart pricing strategy that you would like to share with your fellow models?

Skype 8 compatibility ensured

skype8 compatibility

A while ago, around August, Microsoft signaled that they would drop support for Skype 7, a feature rich version of Skype that users came to enjoy more than the latest.

At the time we advised you not to upgrade, as the company (Microsoft) and the software (Skype) came to push you to do.

We were already in the process of improving our plugin to become compatible with Skype 8, and now we can tell you that it’s safe to upgrade!

Yes, we’ve made it happen, and yes, we made a tutorial on how it works.

You can now easily import media from Instagram by just connecting it with SkyPrivate. Let’s go straight to the point and read bellow how it can be done in just 7 steps (based on the number of screenshots taken by me).

So first, go to you​​r SkyPrivate account at ​https://accounts.skyprivate.com/​​​​ and in Public Profile (which can be found in the left Menu), click on the “Import Media” tab (as shown in the picture bellow)

Screenshot 2015-08-12 20.33.48

The second step is to click on “Import from Instagram”
​​​

Instagram will ask you kindly to log in (if you’re not already logged)
​
Screenshot 2015-08-12 20.34.12

After logging​​​ in, a pop-up will ask you to authorize SkyPrivate to connect with your Instagram. Click “Authorize”

Screenshot 2015-08-12 20.35.15

After authorizing, click on “Import from Instagram” so the media from your Instagram account can show in your SkyPrivate account (it will be private in your SkyPrivate account, only you can see it).

​
Then, select the media which you want to publish on your SkyPrivate Public Profile (1), and click on the “Start Import” button (2).

Click on “View your profile” button so you can check how it looks ‘from the outside world’ :)​

I’ve added this tutorial in the FAQs so it can be easy to find in case you need to check it again, also you can find there answers to other questions as well.

​​​​Feel free to share this on your social channels so other models can know about it and how easy it is to sync Instagram with SkyPrivate. If you have troubles with this, in anyway, reach us through e-mail​, Skype ID: skyprivatesupport or Twitter ​@SkyPrivate.

How to install and use the SkyPrivate Mac Plugin

Once we launched our SkyPrivate Mac plugin, we noticed that our FAQ section didn’t had a tutorial yet on how to use the plugin, so I’ve just made it today. 🙂
First, go to your SkyPrivate account in https://accounts.skyprivate.com/ and click on “Download Skype Plugin”.

Click in the Apple Mac logo and the download will start immediately.

Screen Shot 2015-08-11 at 13.35.28

Drag the SkyPrivate App Icon in the Applications folder.

Screen Shot 2015-08-11 at 13.35.56

Open the Applications folder and proceed with the installation (double click on it).

^9A6DFD163D7CF7E4C34CF5DCFACC7582F52CBEE272F02084FD^pimgpsh_fullsize_distr

Click on “Open” to accept the installation setup.

Screen Shot 2015-08-11 at 13.36.22

After the installation is complete, select to “Allow this application to use Skype” and then click on the OK button.

Screen Shot 2015-08-11 at 13.36.37

You should see the Plugin running in the menu bar. Make sure that you’re also logged into it with your username as shown in the example. Also make sure that your Skype ID is the same as the SkyPrivate Username in order for the plugin to work.

^646EA4B4A97FE3EF0DC55502993452CE6F526C569C69BF52D5^pimgpsh_fullsize_distr

When a member tries to call you, the plugin will show if he is or not a SkyPrivate member and if he is or not able to pay.

Example of a caller who is registered on SkyPrivate and who has money in his account:

Screen Shot 2015-08-11 at 13.46.22

If you’re not identity verified yet, the member will need to approve the payment separately. This is what the pop-up message will show

Screen Shot 2015-08-11 at 13.46.49

After the payment was approved, you will start to charge him every minute as shown bellow:

Screen Shot 2015-08-11 at 13.48.53

And after one minute (we had the price of $1/min)

Screen Shot 2015-08-11 at 13.49.54

That’s how it works. In case you need help with something related, you can look in other questions in the FAQs or e-mail us at support [at] skyprivate [dot] com. You can always add us on Skype at: skyprivatesupport to have a close contact.

Updates in SkyPrivate: earn 2x more $ | Booking System Available | Skype v6.22 not working

How are you? Hope everything is fine there, as I have some things to share with you. So start smiling! 🙂

Three things to share in five minutes…

1. Referral Percentage Doubled, earn 2x more $
2. Booking System Available,
3. Do not update to the latest Skype version, yet!
First. Let’s say that Christmas came early this year, and from this moment on, for every member or model brought in SkyPrivate you get double.


No more 0.05%, you now get 0.10% for each qualified member or model you bring in SkyPrivate. In other words, for every 10 models / members referred you get 1%. Which brings you closer to 80%, easy.
How cool is that?! 🙂
….Breathe now! Cause there is more.

We know you always wanted to get rid of the members that prepay when you’re not online cause they also complain a lot, when really it’s their fault for not contacting you in the first time. Now, this is history as the booking system is here to help.

You just set your schedule and members can prepay and book shows in advance, easy.

Check the link here to better understand how to set it up: Setup – Prepaid Shows
….Reality check. You still here? Great!

The last thing, but not so happy maybe, is that the latest version of Skype v6.22, doesn’t yet work with our SkyPrivate Plugin, so until we handle this, if you wish to get paid-per-minute, please do not update Skype. In case you did it already, here’s a link to the FAQ where you can download the previous version, the one which we all loved more. Support – SkyPrivate
[Update February 21st 2015: now you can install the latest Skype version for Desktop v. 7.1  and it will work with Skyprivate plugin. Download from Skype.com or from your account]

Thanks for taking time to read this. These updates were also posted on Twitter, where we also offer support through Direct Messaging. If you want to stay close and updated, please follow us from here:

By the way, how do you like SkyPrivate so far? What do you think about these updates and how should we improve in the future?

Have fun and enjoy making money! ♥

Yours truly,

Nikki Summers

Skype is making some changes, but we’re on top of this

Update 25 november 2013:

The latest news from Skype (here):

“Previously we shared that we would retire the Desktop API later this year. However, I’m happy to share that we will be extending support for two of the most widely used features – call recording and compatibility with hardware devices – until we determine alternative options or retire the current solution.”

This means that our Skyprivate plugin will work after December 2013, but we need to wait for those changes and to see how they influence our plugin, then we will update you with the necessary information.

—

Some of you raised some concerns about the changes Skype announced they will make in December 2013 and the consequences on SkyPrivate’s plugin.

skype api changes

For those of you who don’t know, Skype decided to retire the Desktop API in December 2013, claiming it doesn’t support mobile application development and, therefore, it no longer aligns with their improvement efforts.

Why use our pay-per-minute plugin

From time to time, we receive e-mails from members who are saying models didn’t do their work, even if they paid for the show. And then, we begin our detectives work in analyzing the situation: did that show happen and who is not telling the truth?
