Dealing with rudeness in our fetish!

Friday, June 24th, 2011

Financial Domination along with a few other hard to understand fetishes seems to bring out the rudeness in some people. I would like to give you a wonderful example of this in one of the fetish groups on Facebook:

copy and paste:

This was the original post I placed this morning in the group.

Good morning fellow Ladies and submissive gentlemen. A thought for the day for you. Be true to yourself, don’t let others steal the smile from your face. The universe has enough for all of us. We have no reason to picker, fight or be rude to each other. Power doesn’t come from “showing off”, it is seated deep within yourself. Nobody c…an take that away from you. A submissive male has deep and strong inner core as well. It takes true courage to submit honestly and without pretenses to the one person he adores. Rudeness, speaking ill to others, only shows you in a sad and unpleasant light. Nobody should need to seek attention at all cost, even at the cost of their honor.

And this is  what a so called submissives response to it!

 

Mark Pigbrown Bella Shut your fuckin trap you fat cunt
about an hour ago ·
Truthfully there was only one response to give besides ignoring this heckler:

 

Bella Donna Point and case made – thank you Mark! It is guys like you who really make he glad I only deal with men!
End copy and paste!
 
The truth is that there was nothing in the original posting which should have set this guy off. Unless he hated hearing what rude and obnoxious behavior makes him and others like this look like. He has nothing but rude comments period to say on the group and simply joined in order to try to set the Ladies off and put them on defense.
 
Personally I think that is the worst reaction you can display when you deal with guys like this who obviously have no life outside of the internet. Calling people out of their names, making derogatively comments to their body size, age or gender etc only shows me (and should you) that they have the intelligence of a Kindergarten child.
 
When I deal with submissive men I expect them to have grown past this stage. I personally do not allow myself to be bullied, upset by comments about my appearance or age. When all that ever comes out of someones mouth or finger tips is hate speech and rudeness I must assume that they truly are miserable.
 
Those types of guys are all around us sadly. We deal with them on the internet, we deal with them in our regular vanilla life, and we deal with them at work places. Those types of guys seem to think that they have a right to try to make others feel miserable or to try to make them think less of them-selves. Females by nature do get hurt emotionally easier than men do. At least that is the theory.
 
Yet once you step into the fetish fields you need to learn to grow a much tougher skin. You need to realize that you will be goaded, you will be attacked and you will be made fun off on an almost constant base. Once you start putting things into perspective however it is a lot harder to make someone upset.
 
Let’s see I was called a fat cunt right? Well in comparison to a Lady of a size 4 I am most definitely fat. But to me that is not necessarily an insult. Why? Because there are millions of men out there who appreciate and worship a “fat” woman. It also means that at least I am successful enough in all my endeavors to be able to buy the food I enjoy and able to feed my big fat belly. LOL.
 
To being a cunt – Lord now there is a newsflash! Le gasp – it is guys like that who have turned me into a cunt at times. I will be the first one to admit to that. So no insult taken.
 
When you Ladies deal with guys who only come on to annoy you and hurt your feelings you really need to consider the source. Does this person even really matter? Do you know him? Will you ever break bread with him? Does he pay your bills?
 
I would say the answer to any of those questions will be a solid NO. So he is just a name on a  site, who more and likely will never be able to make anything out of himself or have a healthy relationship with any woman worth her salt.
 
There are two ways you can respond. Thank him for the supposed insult because really he didn’t make you look bad only himself. Or you can ignore him from there on out. You see those types of guys NEED attention! They can’t gain any in real life, can’t buy any because truthfully they most of the time really don’t have money, and they can’t guilt trip a woman into it.
In all my years of being in BDSM and Fetish and gee since 1992 that is a nice spot of years I would say,  I have been called just about every name in the book.
 
Let me give you a little funny. I have been called a fucking whore over and over again for what I do by morons who really have a very limited imagination if that is the worst thing they can call a woman. Every time someone calls me that I disolve in a fit of giggles, because years and years ago I had a tattoo put on my pussy mount that reads exactly that; “WHORE”. I enjoy a very healthy sexual appetite and a more than satisfying sex life. I don’t have sex with any of my submissives ever by my personal choice. When I was much much younger I worked in a Brothel and I supported my than small children with the income I provided with my body. So by calling me a whore you are hardly insulting me. I think it is funnier than hell, who should be more humiliated? The trick who has to pay for it or chooses to pay for the sexual favors of a woman or the woman who gets paid for something others give away without much thought. So when someone calls me a whore now, I laugh at them. If they push me further I simply state: Well ok, doesn’t matter so does it, because you could never afford me to begin with!
 
Another lovely word that those types of guys love to throw at women are “old hag!” Normally at women who are barely in their late 30′s. Ok let me look at it again like that. If a woman in her late 30′s is an old hag to you, than I suppose you have to be mentally stunted at the age of around 8. Because that is usually when anything over 20 seems ancient to them.
 
A dictionary give us the following definition of the word hag:
 
1. An old woman considered ugly or frightful.
Needlessly to say this is what they are trying to call us when they do it. Yet the forget the other 2 definitions which I personally find absolutely delightful and completely own.
 
2. a. A witch; a sorceress.
Bingo boys! I am actually a Witch in my spiritual path – thank you so much for noticing. And the older I get the more powerful I grow. You are just simply to kind.
 
b. Obsolete A female demon.
 
You see what I mean. Just look at the less than silly intelligent comments those types of guys make and really look at them from a positive point of view. (There always is one) AFter you do that, you won’t be able to help yourself but want to thank them for the wonderful compliments they just gave you and feel pretty good about yourself.
 
Have a lovely day darlings and always remember…. knowledge is power! It is really hard to insult a smart woman!

For the boys: Your actions will always speak louder than your words.

Monday, May 2nd, 2011

If I had a dime for every time a gentleman came on my messenger proclaiming loudly he is a slave – a pay piggy etc. I could retire right now and live in great comfort. If I had a quarter for each time I have been cussed at, harassed, or a guy after making such a claim when he didn’t get what HE WANTED for as long as HE WANTED IT, I could buy myself and island and put a castle on it.

The fact is that a slave - a true slave – would be abhorred by the attitudes, actions and words that come out of some of those guys’ mouth. The reality is that actual slaves show their slavery by actions not by words. The show it in courtesy and that includes the courtesy to take NO for an answer when the Lady gives it. A slave would never presume that anyone owes them anything, but shows his/her gratitude for what is given them. A slave would never dare harass or continuously bother a Domina once she has told him to either step up or go away. He would understand instantly that now it is time for him to move forward and respect her decision or to depart for good and respect her decision.

When a person doesn’t follow this and forces him/her-self on another person it becomes harassment. Let me give you the definition of what harassment is on a legal stand point
harassment (either harris-meant or huh-rass-meant) n. the act of systematic and/or continued unwanted and annoying actions of one party or a group, including threats and demands. The purposes may vary, including racial prejudice, personal malice, an attempt to force someone to quit a job or grant sexual favors, apply illegal pressure to collect a bill, or merely gain sadistic pleasure from making someone fearful or anxious. Such activities may be the basis for a lawsuit if due to discrimination based on race or sex, a violation on the statutory limitations on collection agencies, involve revenge by an ex-spouse, or be shown to be a form of blackmail (“I’ll stop bothering you, if you’ll go to bed with me”). The victim may file a petition for a “stay away” (restraining) order, intended to prevent contact by the offensive party. A systematic pattern of harassment by an employee against another worker may subject the employer to a lawsuit for failure to protect the worker
Directly quoted http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/harassment

Regardless if threats are involved or not, the first line says so straight forward : act of systematic and/or continued unwanted and annoying actions of one party or a group. At this point it becomes harassment.

A slave would never allow himself do anything of that nature. This would be alien to him and he wouldn’t even understand why anyone would do such a thing. Yet I find it ironic that those who proclaim the loudest they are slaves tend to do this the most. MMM makes you think doesn’t it.

A slave would never tell a Lady to “fuck off”, call her “Babe”, or try to bargain with her. None of those are slave behaviors in the least.

A slave understands the value of the Ladies time and respects it. Not pushes her until she will walk away from him/her completely.

A slave understands that a Lady might have some personal space needs as well, he may offer himself as amusement, but will respect her declination of such if she is not in the mood.

A slave understands that the most important thing is his respect and honor. When he promises something he will never break that promise. He will not blame his bad behavior on the Lady. EVER

A slave understands that he may request something, but never demand it. He may never threaten her, make her feel uncomfortable in any way or otherwise upset her. That would hurt a slave more than any physical pain in the world, since his entire being desires to only make her happy.

A slave understands that rewards are to be earned and not something he has a right to. It is at the digression of the Lady whom he serves to see when he has earned this.

See what I mean? Anyone can learn to talk pretty, to use buzz words, to speak admiringly and worshipful. When the actions are in direct opposition of what he is doing however he only shows himself in a very bad light. No Lady will want him for her slave.

Schooling for the clueless – First contact – R.E.S.P.E.C.T.

Saturday, November 27th, 2010

I have written endless Articles on how to and how not to approach a Domina if you want to make first contact. I have gone over this time and time again, in various wording just to make certain that even the slowest of learner out there in cyber space has an opportunity to clue in on what some of the biggest mistakes are you can possibly make.

 

Yet it seems that when it comes to actual learning the “curve” appears too steep for so many of you poor intellectually challenged darlings. I don’t even want to hear the excuses anymore either, that you boys shouldn’t have to “pay anything up front in order to spend some time just talking to her”. You see it is the attitude of too many of you, who have almost forced those us ladies to put a stopper in this bottle.

 

So since it is almost Christmas and I am feeling extremely generous in wasting my breath once again (evil smirk) I will break it down even more for you, and hope that you (boys, guys, men, wankers, sluts choose what fits) will finally sit up, read and take some notes.

 

Best yet, turn it into a little mantra and reside it daily to yourself. Remember, that even so I am only one Lady in millions of them, most of us look at this pretty much the same way.

 

In order for it to be a quicker learning experience I have chosen to teach it this time like you do in middle school or music school….word association by letter. The word for this particular lesson is R.E.S.P.E.C.T.

 

Ironically that is all that those rules really amount to, but for some of you that little fact is just not clicking in. So here we go.

 

R. stands for: Recognize that she doesn’t owe you the time to talk to you, and that she might just be too busy with her life to waste it on you for free. You need to remember that we give you things for free constantly, and so if a Lady demands or expects a small introduction gift (that is all it is by the way) so she can see you truly do appreciate her, then you can simply see it as repaying her for all the freebies she has already given you. See not that hard is it? This way you are only paying off your debt to her, because if you have enjoyed it, read it, came from it, stroked off to it….you are already indebted to her and you are only holding Her money for her. Stop fighting about that. If you don’t want to feel that way, if you don’t feel the desire to make her smile – don’t contact her! Her private time (messenger) is her time to spend with whom she pleases period, you were not invited. So you better make damn sure you are welcome there and not a nuisance.

 

E. stands for: Entertain her, not annoy her. You boys have the hardest time with understanding the difference for some reason. Look, even if we are willing to give you a few moments for free because we are feeling either bored, generous, in the mood for a nice chat, doesn’t mean you should try to take the mile if we give you an inch. If you first come to me for a conversation and I have decided that just perhaps I feel like chatting for a bit, don’t overload me with fetish talk. I have to be in the mood for that, and when I first start talking to someone the last thing I feel like doing is discuss your cock size, your desire to lick my feet clean or whatever other little issues you might be having. As soon as a boy starts this sort of “turn on” talk with me, I already know what you are looking for. It isn’t serving me, but to get a nut. Not interested, but thanks for playing. Entertaining me results in my smiling and laughing, having a great time and wanting to continue the conversation. Annoying me means end of chat, because you just crossed the line. I don’t enjoy being annoyed and so if I even head that way, you get one warning and then you are gone. You can create as many yahoo messenger names as you like, I can block each one of them in turn. In the end, you still aren’t going to top me from the bottom, annoy me or try to force your weasely ways on me. End of statement.

 

S. stands for: Say something intelligent when you first start talking and through out the conversation. There is nothing lamer then some boy coming on a messenger and start off with: “Hi” and followed by “I want …” I get so tired of not only the utter lack of respect that such a greeting brings to my doorstep (do I look like your buddy from kindergarten?), but by the lack of intelligence to know that you never greet a respected person that way. Introduce yourself in the first couple of sentences, use my name or respect greeting (Ma’am) and at least pretend to care how my day is and if I am busy. Not that difficult. Let me even once more type it out for you, this way you simply have to copy and paste it filling in your information: Greetings Ma’am (or enter her name), my name is ……., I am a …….year old, submissive / slave/ fetishist/ man (whatever fits) from …….(enter location.) I have heard about you / found you/ read your writing at (enter location) and I was wondering if you are too busy at the moment to speak to me for a few moments. …. Now in my case this should be done inside of the $40 introduction gift pay to view or with an amazon e-certificate attached. Why because I work online and I don’t have time to waste it constantly and at least this way I know you are a. old enough to talk to, b, have the funds to tribute and the way, and c. are into financial domination.

 

P. stands for: POLITE! There is a huge difference between blowing sunshine up my ass and being polite. I am one of those Ladies who get really irritated and bored when someone gives me textbook answers or tries to tell me how beautiful I am. If you only want to “worship” my beauty go buy some clips and jerk off to them. There is you an assignment. If you want to serve me, you better see a lot more then my outside. Don’t drop the manners in the middle of a chat. Don’t make me wait for answers. Don’t sit there and try to feed me a line of B.S. a mile long. Don’t bother trying to tell me how to dominate you, or what I am going to do for you. None of this is going to get you further then to my iggy bin. Politeness is as simple as listening to a question asked, answering it expediently, answering it quickly and using the manners your Mom should have taught you. Use full sentences, cut the internet speak when addressing me. The first time I see u r instead of you are. You are already 2 points down. And yes when you hit – 20 points you are gone period.

 

E. stands for: Educate yourself first about her! Before you start running to a particular Lady, start reading up a little about her first. NO not just look at her pretty pictures, her big boobs or delectable legs. READ her words. Educate yourself about her likes and dislikes. See if you actually have anything in common besides both being adults and kinky. You have no clue how much of a difference that really makes in the end. Because when it is all said and done, you are not going to talk to her 24/7 constantly about kink. You are not always going to be humiliated, drained, trained, schooled etc. You actually need to be able to entertain her in areas which are mundanely vanilla! You should have some of the same vanilla interests, hobbies, maybe something you can actually learn from each other etc. I want to form a relationship that is meaningful, that is why I don’t want to tribute you until I am sure you can provide what I need. Yes I have actually heard that from boys before and I wanted to reach through the screen and slap them. Nothing wrong with the desire to form a relationship (D/s) I prefer that myself, but to see if I can provide what he needs? Hello, isn’t that a big backwards. How about if we match, if we have anything in common. What about if you are able to serve me in the ways I desire? As a submissive ironically your needs are automatically met if you serve the right Lady and you meet her needs. Because that is what the spirit of submission is…the need to please her above all else! So educate yourself first, so you don’t have to ask her dozens of stupid questions which she has already answered a million times.

 

 

C. stands for: Creative! Be creative, stand out, and use your mind a little. We hear the same old song and dance a million times a year. I for one have little interest in cookie cutter subs. If you want to be one of my boys, you need to show me you are unique. What besides money do you bring to my table? What talents do you have that I can make use of and amuse myself with? What do you have that I can turn into an assignment because you are adept at it? Trust me jerking off is not a talent, any retard can do that.

 

T. stands for: Tribute … yes we hate that word because it is so mundane and so cold. But what does Tribute actually stand for? Webster Dictionary defines the word Tribute as follows:

 

Definition of TRIBUTE

1

a : a payment by one ruler or nation to another in acknowledgment of submission or as the price of protection; also : the tax levied for such a payment b (1) : an excessive tax, rental, or tariff imposed by a government, sovereign, lord, or landlord (2) : an exorbitant charge levied by a person or group having the power of coercion c : the liability to pay tribute

2

a : something given or contributed voluntarily as due or deserved; especially : a gift or service showing respect, gratitude, or affection <a floral tribute> b : something (as material evidence or a formal attestation) that indicates the worth, virtue, or effectiveness of the one in question <the design is a tribute to his ingenuity>

 

So for those of you who need to feel like losers this shouldn’t be a problem as seen in 1 (1) or 1 (2). For those of you who are truly submissive minded and in awe to the Lady in question and appreciate her for her wonderful self 2 *a & b* should be in affect.

 

So what is so wrong with the word Tribute? It simply means that you appreciate the Lady in question and wish to give her something worthy of her wonderful self!

There you have it.

 

R.E.S.P.E.C.T. – learn it, use it, live it and please for gracious sakes start acting on it!

 

 

Setting up your own Website – practical guide for Ladies and boys

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010

Good morning all,

today we are going to deal with some practical things instead of the fun of draining and training. Yes that is all part of it to me.

No matter how wonderful you may be or your Lady may be, if nobody knows she is there it won't do a lick of good. So in order for new seekers to find her, she needs her own online presence.

Joining financial domination forums is a wonderful idea, but it still keeps you limited to only profile pages. Which means you are not going to be able to be your own boss on most of them. Due to federal regulations the Owners of those forum has to limit you to certain things. For example you can not post any photos of yourself topless or nude without having to comply with 2257 Laws. Which means the Owners of the Forums would be required by law to ask you to fill out and submit a Model Release from and a copy of your ID in order to be allowed to host those photos. Nobody wants to have to put up with that sort of hassle.

If you do want to join a financial domination forum, I advise you to research them a little first. You want to make certain they are reputable and are in good standing. Ask around, see what is being said about them. How long do they stay around or are they here today and gone tomorrow.

Are they free to join, or do you have to pay a minimum membership fee to be active. Each has its own benefit.

I own and operate http://www.financialdominationworld.com which is not going to have a huge Membership count for the fact that I charge a small monthly fee which gives you blogging rights, forum use, chat room and your profile etc with no limitations on advertising your own stores, websites etc. There are no seperate levels of membership there, they are all equal. But still since most folks don't want to pay, the numbers will remain small.

There a couple free-to-join forums I personally belong to which may be of benefit to you as well, but since I can not post the links without the site owners permission I won't add them here.

So you have a profile on a forum and that is great, because now you get seen by the boys on the community sites, but it won't help you to be seen by those who don't belong there.

You need to set up your own website to reach a larger audience of potential seekers. Boys creating a "worship site" for your Lady with her permission of course, is a great way of helping her as well. Afterall you want her to have as many good boys serving her as possible right?

The first thing you need to do is find a good and reliable Domain Registrant that doesn't rip you off and a reliable Host which allows adult content. A lot of them don't!

After trying out a lot of them I have found only one that suits my needs perfectly. I register my Domains with them, host my sites with them and they have NEVER crashed on me. No outages or down time. Their price is more then reasonable and you can host as many domains on one hosting package as you have purchased space.

I have used Godaddy.com for the last 6 years now, for both my adult and non-adult ventures and as I said I have never had a problem with them. The wonderful thing is that you can also get a free wordpress blog attached to your domain with them. Since you are hosting via Godaddy you don't have the adult hinderances on wordpress. A wonderful solution.

They are currently running a special again so I am adding the link here for you to take advantage of it. 20% off Hosting at GoDaddy.com – World's largest Web host!

If you are going to sign up with them, please use that link and give me the credit for it as a thank you.

Now you have the perfect hosting company and domain registrant in them. Time to think of a Domain name!

Since you want your name to rise in the Google ranking you need to be smart. Think of keywords which may be looked up. Try to incorperate at least one keyword in the domain name. That will take a little work on your part, but trust me it is worth it.

Try to keep your Domain name simple and relatively short. Make it count!

Another tip, if you purchase the Hosting via Godaddy and purchase the Domain with them as well, you get the Domain registration for the first year for $1.99 instead of the regular fee. So it is definately worth it. Make sure you do it all at the same time.

If you want to build a Membership Site you need to have a CGI bin available, if not you can use the economy hosting. I use the next one up from there and it works like a charm.

I only pay $6.99 a month for my hosting package, which is dirt cheap.

Now think design! NO matter if you design your own Websites like I do or hire someone, you need to know what you want to do with it and how you want it to look.

I keep mine really simple, no big flash and whistles since it only slows the upload time down. Remember that boys are impatient to get at your content, so the more you slow the loading time down the less they are even going to stick around to see it.

Add QUALITY Photos, stay as far away from grappy webcam screen shots as possible. If you can produce a good screen shot that is clean and crips by all means use it. But if it is grainy and barely visible don't!

Let me give you some examples of my different websites:

My variety fetish membership site is a quick loading index page, but the entrance gets a little slower because of the many preview clips I have on there.

http://www.GoddessBellaDonna.com

My financial fuckery site which I share with a couple of Ladies is an extremely quick loading and simple site:

http://www.paymepiggy.com

My financial domination for seekers site is quick loading but very detailed and wordy.

http://www.moneypigswanted.com

As you can see each has its very own layout style. 

I personally use Dreamweaver MX for design which is easy to learn and Adobe Photoshop for my Images.

Your Index page should look neat and not gluttered up, make it attractive without being over the top. I know great looking professional sites are wonderful, but I am not a big studio. I am just me, a one woman ruled empire! So I keep my designs simple and rather concentrate on the content.

Use keywords but don't spam them.

Give each Page a title, that shows up in the search engines as well.

You are building and adult site, so you need to make sure you have adult content warning and you need to make it clear that by entering they agree to your TOS.

If you plan on having ANY Photos or clips with even partial nudity on them, be it yours or your subs, you need to add a 2257 compliants statement on the index page. Make sure that you keep all your records in order!

Protect your content and add a copyright notice to the index page as well as to each of your images (watermark them) and your clips.

Take a notebook and figure out what all you want to add as content. The more you plan ahead and organize things, the easier it will be for you to update and maintain.

Create your own style as closely fitting your personality as possible. Think of your website as your home on the internet. It should represent who you are!

Make the colorschemes easy on the eye and the texts easy to read.

For a financial domination website I would suggest you add at minimum:

  • About you (tell them a little about yourself and your experience level)
  • Your Blog link (remember you can sign up for a free blog with your hosting package)
  • Your Rules
  • Any links to clips4sale, NF, Talksugar or whatever you may have
  • Any open Positions
  • A small Gallery
  • Tribute opportunities
  • Contact Information

Those should be the minimum you have represented.

Keep navigation as simple as possible and think "retard" when you set it up. Trust me you have to tell some people that they have to "click here" to be taken to the next page!

Keep the layout uniform. Meaning don't suddenly start switching colors etc in the in between.

I redesign my websites slightly every other 3 months or so, because it actually keep the spiders happy. Meaning the Search Engine Spiders.

Banners! Create a Banner or more.

For adding your website to different 100 top lists etc you want a banner. The regular (standard) banner size is 468 px X 60 px.

Again make it your own.

Update your blog regularily, at least 3 Times a week and hook it  into your Twitter account and any other adult content approved social networking you have.

Keep your expectations realistic! A new website takes about 6 to 8 Weeks to be picked up by major search engines and depending on how good of a job you have done, that is where they will be placed in the pages. A  listing in page 20 is seldom going to be seen.

YES you need to actually add your URL to different search engines. I am not going to lie to you, building and marketing your website is very time consuming at first. YOu really need to put some work in, but it is worth it in the end.

You can not be lazy for this. Spend your 30 hours to get started and don't complain about it.

Add content to your website regularily, change it around a little and be creative without being gitschy.

Make strong statements and keep the Rules clear. It doesn't matter if the boys agree with them or not, some will and some won't.

But those who won't are not the ones you want anyways.

For example! My Pro-Domination Website is http://www.prodommeinlasvegas.com

I will lose clients because I am making very clear what I won't do! But those are the clients I would have lost anyways! This way I already sorted them before they ever get started talking to me.

If you have more then one website like me interlink them as much as possible. Categories your blogs. If you can't figure out what belongs where so won't anyone else.

IN your design work set up folders and put the right content where it belongs. Think ahead, be organized, be clean and crisp in your design work.

Once it is set up and public ask several different people from differnent locations to look at your site for you. This way you can find out if you have any broken links, if it shows up ok. Ask for feedback! Don't get mad if they don't like what they see. They may give you good input or they may just not like it because it doesn't suit them. Shift through the feedback carefully and fix what is broken. Don't change things if it is just a personal preference.

If you hire someone to create your website for you, work with them closely and PLEASE have an idea of what you want. Don't keep changing your mind mindstream. I have build sites for other Ladies before and they kept changing their mind, or didn't know what they wanted. I ended up telling them to forget about it, because I really don't have the time to waste.

YES I charge for website designing and Banner creations. I won't do it for free and I will only do basic designs as you see on mine. But they are never the less effective.

I suggest not to depend on a sub to create your personal site for you if he doesn't have the experience or is not trust worthy. A "tribute site" can be done by him and for you on his dime and time. YOURS needs to be done right and quickly. Not whenever he gets around to it.

HAVE the content ready when you start out. You can add more as time goes by and you should, but never leave pages that are hooked in blank.

That looks unfinished and will not reflect well on you. If a page is not done yet, just don't link it or have the click here for it until you are ready.

Ok that was a basic information set up. You want more help or mentoring you can email me at: GoddessBellaDonna@cox.net. But please remember my time is not free for this. I will charge you a reasonable fee for working with you.

For now, best of luck

As always

My 3 contact Rule for new seekers

Monday, May 24th, 2010

094715
Let's talk a bit about contact for new seekers. When you get into this fetish either as a lifestyle or as an occassional fetish you need to set some ground rules you stick with as a Domme. Goes all back to standards really.

How much are you willing to give a new seeker before you start demanding some sort of show of appreciation? I understand fully that the first tribute question and time before you require it is a difficult one for most people.

A tricky "sub" can go years without ever making a tribute to anyone and still get off for free. We call them "Wankers", because that is all they are out for. To talk about their fantasy, without actually ever doing anything. They are the freebie hounds of the spectrum, and belief it is their right as a guy to get everything they want for free. "Hell the "Bitches" think they should get paid for nothing, right?" The problem with that sort of thinking is that we are not getting paid for nothing. Those of us who are truly into financial domination, put a lot of time and effort into all we do. Even taking the time to weed through the merit of applicants who are 80% false takes up a lot of our time and energy. Building our websites, updating our blogs to allow the boys to find us and know us a little, takes time.

Once we actually take you on and start training you, there is a lot of "behind the scenes" thought process and planning that goes on. You only see the results, you seldom get to see the process. A good Domme, is going to try to make it as exciting for her submissive as it is for her. She is not going to just take your tribute and run, but will spend time with you, for you and set specific goals for you as well. We don't get paid an hourly wage so to speak or you could never afford serving us. Quiet often a regular boy or gurl shows his apprecation via a weekly tribute which is agreed upon, but receives a lot of personal time. LOL if it was all about the money, we would be poor business women indeed, since the equivilation of it normally doesn't even come out to minimum wage after you take all the time spent into account.

In order for me to not spend too much time on "hopeless applicants" or "non-matches" I have a personal 3 contact Rule for new seekers. This is set for the benefit of only giving what I am willing to give for free to them, without any hard feelings after. Remember that the only person who can waste your time is yourself. So by sticking to my personal Rule, I never feel as if I wasted my time. A win-win for me.

Now remember those are the people who claim they wish to serve me long term and want an actual D/s relationship with me. Not just a one off. Trust me sugars, you can tell within the first 15 min. of a conversation what the boys /gurls true motivation is. So here in detail is my 3 contact Rule.

Contact #1: Make yourself known to me and an introduction period.

Since I am not a Domme to go out hunting submissives and send them emails to get to know me, you as the submissive have to come to me. I am to be woed, not do the woeing. The power balance should start right there. To me Ladies who send endless spam mails and sales pitches to submissives are not Dommes but are Fetish Cam girls for hire. Nothing wrong with that, but a different category all together.

So if you wish my attention you have to come crawling to me, introduce yourself to me and see if I am available to chat with you. Your first impression with me, will set the tone with me. I understand that manners seem to be something a lot of boys have not been required to have with the overload of online Dommes these days, but when you approach me they are a must have.

I will respond to "Hi", but you are already in the minus. That is I will respond if I feel like it. Needless to say, you are already labled by me as an unintelligent moron, who can not even put a good first sentence together.  Think of it as going to an interview, would you just walk in plop your ass down on a chair and say "HI"? If you do, you will never get that job, unless  you can change it quickly.

So a good solid first introduction is very important with me. I have covered this subject in one of my Issues of The Financial Domination Magazine. Click here to buy the March Issue covering this subject! 

Depending on how well you do, I will take a certain amount of time (usually no more then 20 min.) to ask you questions and get to know you a little. Remember that your responses and how quickly you make them, how well formulated they are etc. make a big difference.

If I feel as if you have potential, I will send you to my personal financial domination website: http://www.moneypigswanted.com if you haven't been there already to get to know more about me.  I will also invite you to a secondary contact with me, if after reading you still feel you wish to serve me.

Needless to say, only about 30% will return. When you keep things casual and are not giving them wank off material, but challenge their intelligent thinking side, it is not something freebie seekers will be interested in. Only those with actual interest come back.

Contact #2: Going a little bit deeper into knowing the person behind the name.

That usually goes for both ends. Now I want to know more about your private life, your past history with financial domination and your dreams, goals and desires. I will ask you questions about what you have read on my website and how you understood it. Now if you never went and actually read it like I told you to, it will become very apperant to me at this point. Which tells me you are only looking for the private chats, but are not really interested in getting to know anything about me. You will also be told to ask me questions. Your lack of questions for me or the questions you do ask me will further determine what your fate with me will be. This contact can last anywhere from 5 min. to 20 min. depending on how well you do, or how much time I have available at that moment.

Should you pass, I will invite you back.. If not I am going to honestly tell you that I don't feel as if we are going to get along well and send you on your way.

Contact #3: Decision making time.

If you have made it this far, you should know by now if you want to serve me or not. Obviousely I am interested, or you would already been gone. Now however comes the time to put your wallet where your mouth is, and verify your ability to tribute to me. This is the time when almost 8 out of 10 fail and / or start getting rude. Since I am not going to sit here and talk to you forever for free (don't be stupid), you will get about 5 min. to talk a little and then you will be told which show of apprecition I desire. At this point I seldom put a price tag on it, but let you decide the amount for yourself. I also inform you that if I see it in my inbox or cash equivilant online venue, we continue talking. If not you are gone. Pretty simple and straight forward. I won't accept cash in the mail promises, and if you insist on this then well you will wait until I have received it. Same goes with Amazon Wishlist purchases, since boys have a dirty habit of canceling them after.

So as you see it is all up front with me. I receive the tribute we start talking sincerly and see where you may fit in. I will give you a couple of pre-requisit assignments to fill and a deadline for them. You fill them, you will go on and start a deeper conversation and getting to know your place period. If I feel you are doing very well you will be offered UC in due time.

One thing is that only time will tell how sincere you are. I have had many boys who did really good for the first 1 to 2 weeks and suddenly started to peter out, because they were thinking that it is only fetish all the time, or just couldn't meet up with my requirements. It is a fact that anything that is new is exciting, but actually getting trained and serving the Goddess takes effort and can become a bit tedious. I mean there will be times you just don't feel like writing that text I gave you, or doing that assignment, or getting yourself on my messenger for your daily greeting to me. All that is understood, but if you want to be my slave, then you will do it regardless if you feel like it that day or not.

Being one of mine is an honor, because I do hold so many standards and hold you to them. Only sincere boys / gurls and truly submissive financial slaves will be able to stay the course.
