How does Warm-Up work:
1.Creating of an intrigue and a waiting:

• On the first stage it's important to gain the attention of your fans with teasers and hints towards the future content. It can be done by briefly mentioning that something "exclusive" or "unique" is in the works, but without telling everything. For example you can use engaging headlines, visual hints or partial images.

2.Subscribers interactions:

• Engaging your fans through polls, voting or games can help them feel like they are a part of the process. Interactive elements help them get the feeling of being important, which creates a stronger bond towards the content and increases their interest towards the future offers.

3.Uncovering details gradually:

• Gradualism — one of the most important principles of a warm-up. Instead of telling everything from the get-go, we can separate information into a few parts. First — general info, later — more specific parts about the future launch, and closer towards the end of a warm-up — specifics. For example at the start you can announce that a new exclusive video is coming out soon, then you can share some details, like what format the video will be in and what exactly your fans can expect to see in it.

4.Creating an emotional bond:
It's important to use storytelling — tell stories that help emotionally engage your fans into the process. It can be personal model stories or a completely made-up scenarios that strengthen the bond between the model and her audience.

Why do you need a warm-up?
Warm-Up does a few important jobs:

• Gradual uncovering of the information and interactivity help sustain the fans' interest during the entire campaign.
• Warm-Up emotionally and psychologically prepares fans for the purchase at launch.
• The more audience spends waiting for content, the higher the probability that they'll want to purchase the content as soon as it becomes available.

What can you sell using warm-ups:

• Exclusive videos or photos.
• Sexting sessions and paid communication.
• Premium subscriptions.
• Extra services (custom videos, personalized offers).

End result of a warm-up:
Engagement levels and emotional bond increase, fans form interest and curiosity, which leads to increased sales at launch.

What does launch consists of:
1. Launch announcing: Few days before launch, you should do an official statement when the content or the goods will become available. Announce should have a clear call to action and explain, what exactly the subscribers will be able to get.

2. Time or amount limitations: One of the most effective methods of sales stimulation is to create an artificial shortage — the offer can be available for a limited time or in limited numbers. For example, an exclusive video can only be available for 24 hours or 1 exclusive content can be available to only a single fan.

3. Using every communications channel: It's important to use all the channels that you can to sustain the interest for launch: feed publications, stories, chatting. The more active the model will support the audience attention at launch day, the bigger the results will be.


Why is it important and how does it affect sales:
The launch creates a sense of urgency, which in turn makes your fans act immediately. It's important to make the launch as "big" and "loud" as possible, using time limitations, to create FOMO (fear of missing out) in your fans. Engagement at launch directly correlates with sales numbers, especially when your audience is already warmed-up.

What can you sell by launching:

• Time limited subscriptions/PPV-mass messages.
• Exclusive offers for VIP-fans.
• Live shows, private sessions.
• Combo-packages (for example a few exclusive videos).

Why is it an innovation for OnlyFans models?

For adult OnlyFans models using warm-up and launch — is an innovation because the majority of content on this website is presented blandly, unstructured, unplanned and flat. Warm-ups and launches:

1. Make you stand out:

• Models often publish content with no strategy. Systematic approach with the use of warm-ups and launches helps you create a personal brand and attract loyal fans.

2. Create emotional attachment:

• Standard content rarely gives some deep emotions. Storytelling, interactivity and personalized approach using warm-ups and launches help build lasting relationships with your fans.

3. Sales increase:

• Warm-ups and launches help models sell more and for more. They create the sense of exclusivity and urgency, which motivate the audience to buy. That leads to increase in conversion rates and average revenue per fan.

4. Use psychological triggers:

• Warm-up and launch strategies are based on human psychology — fans feel engaged and are ready to spend more, when the content is presented with the sense of urgency.

That way, using warm-ups and launches not only increases the engagement of your fans, but also helps you increase your income and create stronger bonds with your audience on OnlyFans.
