Advice Social Rate
« on: 08 March 2014, 09:40:24 am »
Just been asked to go to a social event in London for tomorrow.
No sex or anything involved, it will last from 3pm-11pm.
Just wanted some advice really, on what would be a reasonable rate.
He did specifically say if It I quote an outrageous price then he will go on his own.
I will literally be going as a work friend, so nothing at all involved.
What do you think as I don't want to under do it, and I don't want to put him off either, as It sounds like a decent job.
Thanks xxx

Eight hours is a long time, especially being 'on duty'. What are you prepared to do it for? If you do it, are you going to be turning down another booking, for example?

Have you seen him before and have you asked him what figure he has in mind?

I don't work sundays as I have a child and partner.
It is my partners only day off- I don't ever work weekends unless I get a decent offer that doenst involve a full day of shagging basically.
I was thinking 500-600...

I would do about half my usual rate. But only if there was no "private" time we'd be spending together in any way.

The reality is,  most 8 hour sessions only account for about one full hour of sex,  but it's not like I'm giving them any discounts based on that!

For dinner, theatre, social gatherings I charge half my rate. More than four hours and I round it down to the nearest hundred.

I would charge the same rate as my normal hourly rate. The way I work, the compensation is for my time and not services provided. What they choose to do with time we have together (be it between the sheets or accompany to events), it's up to them. I've got punters booking me just to talk about their problems. Apparently, I'm cheaper than shrinks and they have the option to sleep with me which they apparently can't do with a real therapist.

The issue here for me would be a longer booking which would, as per usual practice, warrant a lower per hour rate. But I would charge the same for a non-sexual 8-hour booking as i would for sexual one.

I would charge £100 per hour for this.
Same rate as my overnight fee, but at least I get a good meal and a few hours breaksleep on an overnight.
Eight hours is a huge amount of time to spend with a stranger.
I would hope the 'function' would be something of a diversion..

I totally agree on this.

I would charge 800 quid as that is 8 long hours and that is a good reasonable rate that I give a client as if I was to charge my 150 times 8 that come to (1200) for 8 hours.
You are still performing being his fake work friend - acting pretending also never know there be pictures taken at that social event etc.
I would want to be compensated nicely regardless of no sex involved.

I would charge my normal price for just a social meet regardless of whether you do anything sexual or not, after all it’s all about the time and I would rather miss out on any money than make less, as mad as this may sound to some folks.

I charge 2/3 of my incall rate, but I rarely do social only dates. It tends to be an addition to private time.

I have one client I see almost every week for 3 hours. He comes to my place, we just chat or eat food, no sex, he pays £300. I'm happy with this as it's ways at a time when I wouldn't readily be knocking back full rate bookings. Plus, it's very little effort.

For an 8 hour booking, I'd charge £800, especially if you are spending time travelling to the event.

Folks, the thread is a zombie which has been bumped and is over five and half years old; the OP hasn't been active on the forum for over five and as far as I know is long since retired, so there's little point in addressing replies directly to her.

It does go to show how little has changed though, given that none of the very old posts are really any different from the current ones. For my part, in the scenario described I would charge my usual hourly rate and possibly a bit extra, given that I'd rather sever my own head with a chainsaw :).
