Cam studios allow models to rent facilities outside of their home. These businesses can supply models with video equipment, Internet service, computer, lighting, and furniture. One example was the pornographic film company [[Kink.com]], which rented individual cam studios in the [[San Francisco Armory]] by the hour, from 2013 until the building was sold in 2018.<ref name=Richtel/><ref>{{cite news|last1=Dineen|first1=J.K.|title=SF Armory sells for $65 million — to be used for manufacturing and offices|url=https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/SF-Armory-sells-for-65-million-to-be-used-12560076.php|accessdate=22 April 2018|work=San Francisco Chronicle|date=7 February 2018}}</ref>
Within some studios the cam models can work by the percentage of business that they bring in, instead of renting studio time. The cam models do not have to pay to join this type of studio, but they are also not guaranteed a salary. These models can typically choose to charge customers between $1 and $15 per minute, and then the studio keeps half of the gross while the model gets the rest.<ref name=Song/>
Another workplace option is called a "camgirl mansion", which is a place that provides equipment and broadcast rooms where multiple camgirls can live and share expenses, but without a studio owner.<ref name=McGehee/>
Various support websites<!-- do not add specific examples without a reliable, independent source.--> supply general information about business strategies, upcoming conferences, tips for performance, and reviews of studio equipment. Support sites also give advice about how to protect privacy, discourage piracy, avoid Internet security lapses, and how to prevent financial scams.<ref name=Bertrand/><ref name=Richtel/>
Conferences and industry trade shows can also aid cam models by allowing cam models to network and meet others in the profession on a personal level.<ref name=McGehee/>
