For the past few weeks I?ve been torturing myself trying to do an Etiquette Section for my site.

I want to put 5 things I expect from the customer and 5 things they can expect from me.

The reason it is taking so bloody long is because despite numerous attempts, I just can?t seem to find the right words and I don?t want to come across as an idiot. I?m also really struggling to get the tone right (I hate rants and orders etc). I?m on the NINTH(!) draft of the page and I still don?t think it?s good enough to be published.

Also I can?t think what my obligations should be. So far I?ve included the right to expect absolute discretion from me and the fact I?m generous with time. So I need three more good ones!

For those of you who address etiquette in your advertising, what things do you ask for and expect in return?

Thanks xxx

Cleanliness, punctuality, respect, hospitality, excitement, friendliness and prim come to my mind (?).

I think friendliness is a good one to emphasise...two more needed please 
First five go without saying and I can't always promise to be prim! LOL

Well groomed, welcoming, honest, understanding, open minded, politeness and fun.  (I should start charging you for this lol!)

Yay! Well groomed has been added to the list. One to go!
Keep talking Madam, happy to get the cheque book out!

Safety?! Ummm how do I say politely and eloquently "I promise not to stab or kill you during our time together?"
Or have I got the wrong end of the stick?

You are very good though Ana with suggestions, I will send you a cheque along with a tip, if you agree to critique the final version!

Hmmm, I see what you?re trying to get at but I don?t like talking about that sort of thing in public. You never know a proper whacko could read that and think ?great she?ll be on her own?
Obviously I have security procedures in place but again I don?t think it?s best to harp on about that. Sorry I am difficult!
So, still need one more...
Any ideas about what I should list for the guys?
So far I have; a) to have read the basics on my site before contacting me b)to follow my confirmation procedure c) to arrive on time or inform me of delays d) respect the services I offer and those that I don?t and e) I don?t like being called babe!!! so please call me Alisha lol

@Nameless - So what kind of things do you ask for?

I have client guidelines on my profile  which incoporates what they expect from me and what id expect from them. and also that i offer a discreet professional service. that the premisies are clean, safe & private.
I also state that i have 24 hr security should i ever need it.

I was looking at a 'high class' site the other day and the only thing it had in the etiquette section was "don't be an arse".
C'mon Alisha, keep it simple!

Ha ha! 
I'm at the stage now where I feel like throwing my lappy out of the window but I'm not one to start a project and not complete it. I shall soldier on...
