Oof! I get this quite a bit, and "why don't you do bookings shorter than an hour?"

Yes I do charge more than some, but less than others. I don't charge extra for anything but thirds and filming/photos. And sorry, but it costs money to wash sheets and towels, buy condoms, lube, toys, etc, and I'm low volume. This isn't full time for me. You can pay more than my rates, but not less.

And no, I don't do less than an hour. What's my rate for 30 minutes? The same price as an hour. Can't I let you have a 15 minute quickie? No, I'm trying to be discrete here, I don't need anyone sussing out what I'm doing on the side. Also, you're having a laugh if you think I'd take a 15 minute booking and include anal.

Say, "Oh, how unlucky.  I am about to increase the rates as Christmas is on its way."  Lots of escorts increase the rates this time of year.  :)  That'll shut him up, he's only a petty chancer, who should quietly wank himself off.

Man goes to garage to blow his tyres up. Last week it was 20p, now price is 40p. Complains to cashier. Cashier replies "sorry sir it's due to inflation"   :) :) :)

Seriously though all prices go up eventually. My window cleaner has just increased his price, council tax up 2 per cent next year, my car insurance is higher than last year, Marmite dearer in Tesco  :)

Blame Brexit and lets all put our prices up  :)

I'm pretty sure some escorts had already done that.  I noticed some local sps increased their rates, leading to the festive season.  Perhaps, someone could start a thread, "have you put your price up yet?".   I notice some women charge a very high rate (well above average).  I'm sure the type of pricing may attract punters, who are looking for a far more luxury type service.

I find if anyone is going to ask me for a discount, it's the very wealthy ones, does anyone else find this?.  Thankfully I rarely get asked to do deals, maybe twice a year, but the cheek of it, when they are on 6 or 7 figure salaries it's incredible.  I was recently asked to do a cheap deal by a very rich client, which I thought at first was a joke and laughed at him, until I realised he was serious, he wont be seeing me again.

I'm thinking of starting a loyalty scheme, just like the coffee bars use. Every time they see me, I stamp their card, and when the card is full (12 stamps) they get a free hand job  :)
What do you think ?
Will it work ?
PS only joking  :)

I had a client say that to me once "you should have a loyalty card and every ten punts you get one free"  I said for every time you punt with me you save ?10/?20 on the average price for my area, every ten punts with me you get one free already.  Bone head  ;D

We know when they get "desperate", their "upper brain" stops working (whilst their "lower" brain takes over) if not all men are like that.  But definitely, I have seen some men are like that.  They can't seem to think or read a message and understand what it is said.  Bizarre but true.

I really despise hagglers. I've lowered my prices enough to keep up with 'competion' in the area. I get quite offended with this and tell them so now. I love the Tesco comparison, its true!
they have no idea just how much we undercharge. We are worth so much more xx
I've lost track of how many cats I have...

I wish everyone would think that way.  Not sure if this is against the board rules to comment this, but charging dirt cheap is none of the anybody's business, except themselves, who charge very low compared to the average price.  Having said that, though, maybe, lack of confidence has something to do with it.  "I'm not good enough, so I charge low", just saying. Then punters go to other escorts (who charge average rates in the area) and tell them "you are too expensive".

I don't think its necessarily ladies who think they aren't good enough - they just see an opportunity to exploit the cheaper end of the market. If you're in a premises where a lot of footfall won't be noted, and you prefer to stay busy all day, then charging low rates is a good business model, particularly in less affluent areas.

If I'm in an area which is economically depressed then it makes much more sense for me to drop to the area "going rate" of 60/100 and get 5x1hr and 2xhalf hour and end up with 620 quid, than to keep my rates at 80/140 and only do 1 hour and 3 half hours for 380 quid.
And me, I am not a mess, I am a wilderness, yes

VC, I was referring to ladies, who charge far less than "going rates" (and possibly, also a newbie, which I did not comment earlier).  Sorry, if I wasn't clear.  :)
